Love Cody overall, but this album feels like a slight step down compared to his most recent ones. The ballads outshine the uptempos for me, with “I Don’t Trust My Memories Anymore” shining the brightest. “Dying Isn’t Cheap”, “Shoulders” and “Feeding The Flames” were all pretty good as well. Other songs might click more on repeated listens.

I’m going to need more time with this, it’s not as memorable as previous projects.

“All It Cost Me Was Everything”, “Dying Isn’t Cheap”, “I Don’t Trust My Memories” and “Like a Hurricane” are among my all time favorite Jinks songs.

The rest I’ll definitely need some time with, but overall a solid project. A lot of Randy Travis vibes

Debut at #80 all-genre and #12 country. I guess 10~12k SPS? (Judging from similar stats for Gary Allan's album)
Shame that this was released in a very competitive week, because otherwise this definitely goes to top 10 country albums.

Also doesn't help that the CD has been delayed for whatever reason. I'm not getting it until the end of the year.
