The themes they describe for the new album (memory and loss; forgotten history; confused reality and art as a hiding place and inspiration) sound really interesting.
And I like the idea of "obsessively melodic".
BUT, I have no interest in "orchestral sweep", which to me just reads as "over-produced".
I'm sure I'll love the album, but they need to dial back their proclivity toward overbearing production a bit.
