This is not good. Not a fan of the sped up style of the verses and the slowed down style of the hook. I'm 100% sure that was their intention but it sounds clunky to me. They have yet to wow me since "No Hard Feelings", and this is no exception. Watch this be a hit by the band name alone...

I kinda like this. It's nice seeing them go more upbeat like this – reminds me of "Kick Drum Heart".

it's been nearly a decade since the avett brothers have been close to good, i'm afraid (maybe longer if you're not an ain't no man defender like me), but this is a step in the right direction i think. the avett brothers sound pretty good when they go electric, they should do it more. i don't really love this song, but it is cool & has a good hook. definitely a better lead single than high steppin

I'm just grateful they're not trying to put me to sleep this time. Yeah, this is a little clumsy, but I would rather have a fast song like that than a slow one. A fast song can let you overlook some flaws in a way a slow song can't.

This got a bit better for me. I didn't get the folk punk vibe at first, probably because I initially heard this on speaker. Still one of the weaker songs on the chart, though.

Alt is starting to add this; a couple of big gets this week for this song. Wouldn’t shock me if Active starts jumping on this too as it’s livelier than some of the stuff that format’s been playing lately. Who would have guessed that a sleepy acoustic outfit could potentially score a multi-format charter just by plugging their guitars in?
