    More like the GOAT has returned, am I right?

    From one and half listens, this album feels a bit back-heavy as the obvious standouts to me are _Reappearing Rat_ and _Worm_ but it's obviously good. I imagine several more songs will stand out as I have more of a chance to pick out lyrics from them.

    Fable Killer feels more like it should be on [Julia With Blue Jeans](https://record.club/releases/albums/moonface-julia-with-blue-jeans-on), which, is an album I like but also very much doesn't feel like Sunset Rubdown to me

The tracks each feel like connected but separate spaces and are ambient enough that I could imagine them on loop without them getting grating.

    On first listen, Too Much Time and the back to back of 10 O'Clock Ride and Not Home stood out to me. The samples/field recordings did less for me, so Every Day Is Every Day didn't do much… More
