That song title made me roll my eyes real, real bad but dang that's a great song. That's my favorite of the new batch so far.

Hey guys, the album is in Spotify.

LA Girlz, Do You Wanna Get High?, Summer Elaine and Drunk Dori, and Endless Bummer are early favorites for me. I think California Kids is also good, and I'm warming up to King of the World.

I wish Rivers was using a teensy bit less falsetto... I also think I preferred the previous album's production.

I feel like there is a legitimately good song in Jacked Up, but it's produced completely wrong from start to end.

I agree. I was initially extremely resistant to it because it has that Rivers Does Hip Hop sound that comes off sorta half-baked, combined with the alarmingly high pitched vocals. I kept coming back to it, though, because I think the tune is actually pretty loving good, and it's infectious in a way that's hard to put my finger on. I think the bridge is fantastic, and fits musically with the verses but stylistically it sounds like a different song. Could be a symptom of being overproduced. I don't fault them for trying something different but I don't think it comes off as sincere as most of the other songs on the album.
