    That has been the biggest most consistent complaint people have made since the album dropped

    Ok my bad then, and good to see that people actually do notice it. I’ve basically listened to him every day for 20 years, and the difference is quite big. I hope he gets his energy back over time.

    His voice lacks color and emotion, which is a big part of his whole essence and message. His voice is extremely monotone for him. I’ve been a big fan for 20 years. I hoped it was just an issue with one song, but it seems to be consistent throughout. I noticed it right from the beginning. I haven’t listened to the whole album yet, but for me it’s more sad than sonically problematic.
    It’s also sad to see that almost no one points this out, which shows how tuned out most people actually are here.

    The mixing drowns out his voice even more

    I think he brings the same energy as Travis on Father but his voice feels lower mixed

    Oh it's the Carpenters

    I knew it sounded very familiar

    FATHER, WHATEVER WORKS, too have more colour and a more confident projected delivery

    like I've said before I like the solemn delivery on the other songs too, but if you say the album lacks colour and emotion I think you just finished the album and recency bias means you forgot the first half

    Same for me, will probably bump to a solid 8 if he fixes the few remaining instances of AI, and it seems like he intends to

    that said, I do think the mixing could be improved on some tracks by just raising the vocals a bit, Preacher Man is one

    This and also some of his verses towards the middle and the end get samey

    That’s why it’s not on the level of his prime classics, still hell of a statement
