    Rather safe, rather standard, and I'd rather listen to his last album but I appear to be in the minority in that. The degree of melodic and compositional recycling going on here is obscene. Still, it's listenable, the first three songs are solid enough, as are a couple of the later tracks. Still...I prefer antagonistic FJM. Bah.

    The melody seems sometimes repetitive. It's a decent album but it does not add anything to your experience as a listener.

    While still supremely self-important, he probes his emotions like a narcissist at the mirror. The difficulty/trick comes in wondering whether Tillman goes out of his way to trip himself up.

    God’s Favorite Customer is the next chapter to Honeybear: the story of the hedonistic shroom-addled Hollywood waster who fell in love and started to grow up, even if the occasional pelvic thrust, sardonically raised eyebrow or over-dramatic fall to the floor wouldn’t go amiss.

    God’s Favorite Customer isn’t a bad album, yet it still feels like the weak link in the grand scheme of things. Fans of his previous work will still get a lot out of Misty's latest, but despite its subject matter, this album feels a little safe and inconsequential.
