    This is the album of 2021 for me. What makes a great album is consistency. It’s not only 1 or 2 or 3 songs that are great. Yes there are better songs than others but it’s all subjective which one you think is best. At the end all of it is brilliant. And cohesive so all of the songs are connected but different. There is no monotony. There’s a range of melody and progression that isThis is the album of 2021 for me. What makes a great album is consistency. It’s not only 1 or 2 or 3 songs that are great.

    On first listen I was very enthousiastic about it ! On subsequent listens, my feelings somehow subdued.
    The album is certainly a keeper, keeps great company and there are nice details to watch for. But for some reason it doesn't grow with me. The opening track and namesake of the album "The Last Exit" is the best track in there and will be totally proved to be one of the best tracks of

    On the whole: Very good stuff !

    P.S. 1 i would give it a 7.5 score if half-points were an option.
    P.S. 2 great for travelling by car.

    Refreshing without losing their essence, which is notorious for a 5th album of any band. Perfect for a quite and relaxing moment, purely Still Corners.

    Sonically drifting between graceful ambience and somber chamber pop, The Last Exit hits several peaks throughout its eleven pieces.

    While Murray's lyrics are consciously evoking images of old timey Americana – desolate arcades, voodoo rites, thunder in the mountains – your mileage will vary on whether you find it charming or cheesy. Regardless, The Last Exit is a road trip worth taking. Murray’s sultry croon is effortlessly affecting.

    Even if The Last Exit is sometimes a little too wispy, it's still a fitting soundtrack for getting lost on the open road.
