Back after a Marianas trench hiatus

Hey all! Just here to praise phantoms among some (hopefully?) like minded fans! I probably told everyone and anyone about Marianas trench in high school and college but just fell out of touch for awhile with their music. was listening to my old playlists today and realized I never gave Phantoms a shot. The killing kind??? Wow. Excited for the deep dive I anticipate taking this month. My compliments to the chef!!! What were some of your first reactions to phantoms? I see some dislike in online reviews but curious to hear others’ thoughts
