I have mixed feelings about The Dear Hunter these days because they were my favorite band and I somewhat overdosed on them. I’ve listened since Act 3 and seen them live 6 or 7 times. But this and Antimai really solidify why the earned that spot in my heart. So much fun and so unique!
They’re coming to my town soon and I’d love to see them play this album but I’m unfortunately gonna be gone! If you’re even remotely a fan of them and haven’t seen them live you MUST. They are maybe twice as good live compared to their albums. Casey is just such a gifted musician.
Cool to see some Indigo Child themes and reprises even though I wasn’t big on that album.
This is exactly what I needed to hear, and it's exactly why I don't think Sunya is affecting me like the Acts or other stuff. I skipped Indigo Child and Antimai just because "I had other stuff"...

I skipped Indigo Child and Antimai just because "I had other stuff" going on—mainly listening to stuff like Frankie and the Witch Fingers and King Gizz—
But it informs the reason why my brain is struggling to latch on to any motifs. I don't think I'm a prog music novice by any means but without doing the homework on TDH's latest evolutions, many of these chord changes and melodies feel like they're happening a bit too adventurously.
Which is something I love about the dear hunter - sometimes just following a thread in a progressively complicated song like Take More Than You Need is one amazing ride, but when the art is being served across an album like it's a Renaissance painting, it really helps to know the influence behind the brush strokes.
All to say, I commit to listening to all of their latest stuff! 😅
Honestly that makes a ton of sense. I think once you listen back you’ll see how the evolution happened and you’ll start to recognize some of the chord changes they’ve started using more. Still...

Honestly that makes a ton of sense. I think once you listen back you’ll see how the evolution happened and you’ll start to recognize some of the chord changes they’ve started using more. Still though this album is pretty wild from a music theory perspective!
