Not that it matters, but the thing in The Stache isn’t really a pause, but more of a mute of most of the tracks. It doesn’t pick up where it stopped, but where it would have been if it had never stopped. Snap along with the snare and sing the riff and you’ll see what I mean. That is one of many strange choices made on this album that will take me a few listens to form a firm opinion on. The way Dissolve starts is another. Like others here, though, I definitely prefer the slow version of Alone at Home, so I’m hoping we get a demo of that (if it exists) in the The Big Package of Everything.
Overall, I LOVE this album so far. The guest vocals are all fantastic and really work well in the context of all of the other songs.
