#1850 FIDLAR - Too

Shitkicking couldntgiveafuck wastrel stoner punks FIDLAR follow their couldntgiveashit debut (sample track title: Wake, Bake, Skate) with a concept album. A concept album! About Sobriety: Challenges Of!

You lose some of the frantic fun, sure, but its no American Idiot, more Separation Sunday, a surprisingly thoughtful whallop of manic romp, freakout rage, and pissy indignation, half Never Gonna Grow Up, half It Sucks to Grow Up. Sample line: I figured as i got older / life just sucks when you get sober // I figured out when I got sober / life just sucks when you get older. Occasionally profound, always one trip away from heavy - the exact moment at the party where you forget tomorrow for good.

It's exciting. The hooks are sharp, the energy electric: you never know what's next, but all those surprises hang together as an album, and afterwards you feel exhausted and sparked and ready to live life and ready to listen again 4/5
