"Anxiety, Eat World" packs a punch with its bold instrumentation, witty lyrics and broadening of Furry Loser's musical glossary.

It's easy to read the anxious feel of the album as soon as the first track ("We Have the Technology") asks you if you've suffered due to common Internet scams and doom-scrolling.

This anxious feeling carries throughout the songs' narratives, depicting a series of stories with colorful protagonists, such as the sex worker on "Flesh World" or the religious fanatic woman in "Siniestro". And even when things seem most dire, the album never loses a certain, tactful, upbeat quality Furry Loser is best known for.

This album comes to an end with a new personal favorite of Furry Loser's: "Clouds". The song describes the bleak reality our beloved planet is facing in its call for attention to air pollution.
