Lugubrious Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 (edited) There's probably going to be a bunch variants for this. Edited March 5, 2019 by Lugubrious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magickspells Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 (edited) Sounds like Mac is really "winding down" in recent years. Last album was a big change of pace, slower, acoustic (and probably my least favorite)... this new song sounds similar. I'm trying to avoid using the term "boring," I do love his work (especially the first few releases.) It's just that, this sound isn't what I'd come to MD to hear. I feel like his high energy, chorus/reverb drenched indie sound is what drew most people to him, and it's like he's not into doing that kinda music anymore? P.S. the new single has grown on me a bit. initially I wasn't feeling it much. we'll see how this album turns out, I just don't want This Old Dog 2.

I didn't love This Old Dog when it was first released but it legitimately grew into my favorite LP of his - sorta similar to what happened with Another One.

This Old Dog is my favorite proper Mac album, and if I'm being honest, my favorite overall is the Old Dog Demos. I'm excited to see where he goes on this one, as long as he keeps evolving as an artist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CVHX Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 In for this. Never disappoints. Kinda crazy that he left captured tracks and is doing his own label Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zdkaiser Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 Is it just me, or is the novelty of Mac's music/personality sort of wearing off? The new track is dull. copelandkid 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
batnoises Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 Holding out on the seaglass to see if a cooler variant drops. Doubt this will sellout anytime soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spoon Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 New track is pleasant and listenable, I’m sure I’ll enjoy the album but it’s definitely missing the pizzazz of those first few LPs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SE7EN Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 Definitely in for the album... Not totally blown away, but the new track is pretty decent. Wonder why the comments and likes/dislikes are disabled for the video? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably because of the slew of internet weirdos who think he's being a misogynist for having a similar album and song name to Mitski copelandkid and SE7EN 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 Lots of dislike for the direction he's taken. Personally, this live performance was my favorite/most fun i've seen from any artist recently. Loved it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zdkaiser Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 Mac's novelty has worn off for me. All these slow songs are just so boring. He isn't an amazing songwriter, singer, or even a very talented instrumentalist. It'd be one thing if he could write some intricate layered guitar parts, or at least a technical piano/keyboard section, but it's all so remedial and he just makes it weird by pitch shifting the tape he records on. I dont know. I own all of his other material and am not eager to buy this latest release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really liked 2 and Salad Days, and was weary of This Old Dog as the single sounded like more of the same, but wound up really like it – at first. It went out of rotation pretty fast. I know he's got a rabid fanbase but I'm still shocked he's sold out 3 nights in a row at one of the biggest non-stadiums in town this weekend. A few years ago he was playing maybe 2 nights at much smaller, intimate venues, which fit him far better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
