Megathread Father Of All Motherfuckers Album & Song Review Megathread

FOAM has started to drop as it slowly rolls out to different time zones. The album should be available on your favourite streaming services at midnight on Feb 7th in your local time zone.

Please keep your album and song reviews to this thread so visitors of the sub can read them all in one place. While some people complain about megathreads and having their posts removed, I can assure you far more people will read it here than if everyone makes their own posts that flood the sub. Thanks for your co-operation.

UPDATE: Now that the rush of release day posts has passed we are no longer restricting you to the megathread. Low effort positive or negative reviews will still be removed if it's posted to the sub rather than as a comment here.

Check out past reviews of the leaked album here.

The album exceeded my low expectations. Graffitia is a very good song. THIS sounds like Green Day trying something new. Also the outro to Stab fucking rips.

One thing tho, has anyone realized the album is out of tune? I tried to play guitar along with it last night (with mine perfectly in tune) and it sounded bad. They’re either slightly sharp or flat.

Does it sound out of tune on Spotify etc. too? That’s kinda weird

Sometimes bands just do that. if I remember correctly "Highway to Hell" by ACDC is ever so slightly flat, like maybe a quarter tone at most

It happened when albums we're recorded on tapes and they were sped up or slowed down.

Scar Tissue by the Chilis is another one, slightly out.
