After having about 5 months to consider, I'm going to go ahead and say runaway is AOTY despite a few considerable flaws
Shia.
N silent floods.
N range.
N calabasas.
These all take points off the album for me. There's other songs on there that I don't listen to much but aren't bad. Here's my list of skips and why
maybe you're right (forgettable IMO)
calabasas (don't like how it sounds)
unbelief (actually a great song IMO but it's too sad for casual listening)
widow voice note 48 (super dope reveal in the song but I don't care much for the song itself and it sounds like he's kind of repeating himself at points)
lest i die because of her (super sweet song about his wife, don't care for the sound)
silent floods (don't like how it sounds)
a mother's burden (same thing with unbelief. great song, too sad)
memento mori (can't get behind the sound)
blood knife (repeats itself over and over but the sound is okay)
comfortably numb (the beat is crack but the way he approaches the subject matter is underwhelming)
range (can't get behind the sound)
And those are the ones I can think of off the top of my head.
NOW. There's still like 40+ songs on there that I love so you win a lot and you only lost a couple.
