Bird 1 really is still good despite the synth plops. I'm getting used to them.

I do like the album, but OWB (an album several people say they hate) is definitely superior to me. Barkings competition for me is AHDO. Maybe Barking can surpass AHDO for me one day, who knows. I like both of those albums but both are fifth and sixth in rank for me. Like I said, I'm currently feeling Barking as a 3/5 star album (and I feel it will still grow on me some more), and I'd say AHDO is a 3 1/2 star (out of 5) album for me. At one time, I was feeling that AHDO was a 2 1/2 star album to me, so Barking really can grow more on me.

Anyway, ratings aren't really all that important to me, and I don't care to rate albums most times and don't put too much importance on them when I do. I've been giving Barking many listens of late and even if I think it isn't too strong of an album, I do generally enjoy listening to it when I do. Some tracks aren't all that impressive to me, but I am quite happy with Bird 1, ALAF, DJ, Moon In Water, and Louisiana.
