album Ed Sheeran - ‘Subtract’

[ToraeGilt]

I had no idea he dropped an album until I saw this thread…

[Taylor fanboy]

At least he will have End Game (Taylor’s Version).

[Aslan]

Hopefully his stadium tour in the US help with its longevity.

is there an I'm a Mess level bop on this album? I'll check that out if there is...

[Ms. Togekiss]

and I thought endless summer vacation and gloria were bombs

This is honestly a great album and his best to-date. I felt = was pretty underwhelming sans a few songs, but this is pretty damn solid. The end of the standard edition drags with “Vega” through “The Hills of Aberfeldy”, but other than that, it’s fantastic. 
 

I don’t believe “Eyes Closed” sounds as out of place as many of you claim and it in fact sounds much better in context of the whole project. Granted, it’s a grower but probably not as much as “Bad Habits” was.

 

The highlights for me are “Life Goes On”, “End of Youth”, “Colourblind”, “Spark”, and “Toughest”.

[OrgVisual]

Salt Water is the only good song, the rest is meh

[revivval]

Wow i am surprised that i like a lot of songs but highlights for sure are: Curtains, End of Youth, Salt Water and Dusty i keep listening to it everyday since he dropped it good signs maybe it will serve longevity. 

[heckinglovato]

I'm in love with this album

[K$Ellie]

this is just as bad as his other albums, the terrible mix of evermore’d (but much worse) and Passenger’d songs 

[Aslan]

It seems to be rising on Apple Music US daily so that’s a good sign the promotion is working ig 

[spiritboy]

This album is about death, suicidal thought  and depression. It's not everyone's cup of tea so i doubt it'll have longevity. Still, glad that he got this out of his chest.

[Lord]

He’ll be fine.the album is honestly good.

[TeamThiem]

Finally listened to the album.

 

Salt Water is the best song on the album.  Period. 

 

It happens to also be the most depressing.  Despite the heavy subject matter, it is very easy to hum along to.  The chorus is so melodic and flows beautifully.

The thing is Pink has a more solid fanbase than Ed, I think? I'd love to be wrong though.
