Finally got around to the new Khruangbin. I think I get what folks are saying about it. It’s interesting to me honestly, but probably not something I am gonna reach for over their first two or the Bridges collabs.
I only spun it once over the weekend but I actually appreciate the fact that they didn't just make another funky album that sounds exactly like their previous stuff. This fills a different need for me and is something I will probably throw on at a different time of day than, say, Con Todo.

I listened to it this weekend and feel very similarly. I also immediately went back and relistened to the first album after finishing this one.

Didn't even bother listening to the full Khruangbin record, by track 3 I was like

"Okay I get it."

My shelves are breathing a sigh of relief that they get to remain slightly more empty for slightly longer.
I had this same thought. I only really liked their first album but I don't get the overwhelming hype around them. They're slated to play some pretty big venues on an upcoming and I worry how sleepy some of those larger shows might be. They don't have an "Arena" sound.
