Unfortunately the (inexistant?) mix makes it like the voice is really hidden behind the instruments... Gives quite a raw feeling but even with that the instrumentals don't really take me anywhere (some exception like Joe, water or other... )
Without knowing it is a debut album it doesn't give a good album vibe, but a great artist vibe for sure. Medium
