Rosenstock's sincere depictions of physical anxiety, survival and self care cut through all the genre's cliches. It's not all shouty slacker punk, despite his pedigree as part of the riotous musical collective Bomb the Music Industry! "Speak, even if it feels weird" Rosenstock gently implores on one of the album's more therapeutic interludes 'Doubt'. "K*ll all the doubt or it'll never go away, K*ll all the doubt or it'll waste your day", is frankly the most practical suggestion ever imbued into a catchy chorus.
Earnest and immune to affectation, it's not really surprising that Rosenstock's music still manages to end up on all the end of year lists from the gatekeepers of cool. Similarly his live performances are notorious for being a total judgement free zone. Come see a show, let rip and sing along. Even if it feels weird.
