Some songs were discordant and could do with tightening up. The first song was not a great opening to the album and made me want to turn it off immediately and shove balls of broccoli in my ears. Some songs such as the second were banging and overall the album was tasty enough to garner a 3. Thank you for coming to my TED talk
It's not necessarily a bad album but it is just very mild. There's nothing unique or transformational about it. The repetitive nature is prevalent throughout and even the beat is reproduced. This may be useful background music but too much of it may drive you slightly insane
Smooth and perfect for what I needed right now. Flow. But more or less the same sort of rhythm throughout the album. Could've changed it up a bit. More noticeable at the start. Middle changes up a bit but honestly just slows the pace down and that it. Still soft fire tho
Nothing particularly of note. Not an album I'd put on when given the opportunity to select one myself but it was alright. Nothing terrible; nothing especially interesting
Calming and not headache inducing, perfect for my mood. Got a bit repetitive in tone towards the end and found myself unable to fully pay attention to the music
Same vibe the whole way through. Relaxing but lacks variety/that good spice
First got me into metal despite it being a starkly different genre- at least through the contemporary metal perception. Solid and eternal.
Quite the same the whole way through. One of these songs is a classic and the rest are simply repeating what worked. But why did it work? Because music had to be feel-good, preppy. It had to have a catchy chorus that was easy enough to dance to. That's all it is; nothing potent, nothing special, or particularly bitchin' enough for this girl to have fun (although she desperately does want to, so certain lyrics are at least relatable).
Could not force myself to get through it all. Absolutely not it. Some people may like it and I'm glad those people are not in my vicinity. You do you, though💲
It was OK. Nothing especially groovy
A lot of the same type of music but surprisingly didn't get boring. Lovely background music, great to vibe to.
Not my usual thing. Lyrical lucidity, howbeit mostly repetitive instrumental/rhythm. Three little birds is the best song on the album and even that is coloured by my endless exposure to it, hence it's a classic. Not to say that it doesn't deserve to be, and the message is sweet, though nothing extraordinarily profound.
Hard to choose between 2 or 3. I think subjectively it's a 2 but I gotta be nice sometimes I guess
Not my thing in all honesty but it has a lot of interesting components that doesn't make it as boring as it could have been. A few well appreciated tone shifts. His voice isn't exactly what I go for, but it fits the music. Therefore: 3 golden stars.
Only thing this is good for is making you horny. Repetitive. Would listen to this solely for background sex music. Beautiful vocals though. Would just appreciate more meaningful lyrics
Possibly influenced by just waking up and not being in a music mood, but this is so boring omg. It's just so uuuuuugggghhhhh. Repetitive and completely uninteresting. Monkey man was the only acceptable song
Some of these songs are sort of just a poem rather than a song, or at least it definitely pushes the limits of the definition of a song. Don, Aman reminds me of a performance I watched in a lecture about spoken word poetry. It's definitely interesting in content, but I'm not sure how I feel about it from listening once. It seems like the type of album to grow on you. Some songs have hardly no to no vocals in them and focuses solely on instrumental. Whilst you may not rock out to them, they're definitely a soundtrack to self-reflection and indulgence in meditative, creative spaces. Upon listening to it again, I love it endlessly
Possibly due to listening to this album on a long car ride home and on my 20th birthday, with my life no longer ahead of me and the reaper banging on my door, but it was good. Chilled and nothing special, but it didn't have to be special. Anyway. 3 stars. Cool
Not my thing but I appreciate the vocals and the instrumentals. Alabama was the best of the album. It's all a bit too country/Christian for my taste, but still a pretty good listen
Repetitive lyrics and they're not even particularly meaningful. I don't understand why the Beatles were so big...
Really good but got repetitive at the end
This is such a weird album. Some of it sounded like parts of the same song were slightly out of sync eg Ella Guru, but some others felt like they were the backing track to a madhouse eg. Hair pie: bake 1. Some were unlistenable such as Frownland, yet some were actually enjoyable and lacked the general mania of the album such as moonlight on vermont and pachuco cadaver. Sweet sweet bulbs simply felt like an extension of P.C, and therefore unnecessary. Neon meat was just the right amount of odd, with tangible lyrics/spoken word and messy instrumental that wasn't whiny. It reminded me of an old advert. This retro aesthetic is followed on by Sugar 'n' spikes. My human gets me blues was similar in the 'just right' aspect. Dali's car barely missed going over the crass inharmonious border, but was still enjoyable. I wish I could say the same for Hair Pie: Bake 2. Bills Corpse and Pena were...interesting. China Pig reminded me of smooth old blues/jazz music or even country, thoroughly enjoyed that song in the mixture. Well felt like a biblical activist speaking in a megaphone on a street or on the radio- pushing the limits of what a song is, similar to The Narcissist Cookbook (as does Fallin' Ditch). Some gave the vibe of being trapped in a jungle listening to animals making noise, though in their defense, relatively good noise- for animals such as When Big Joan sets up. Ant Man Bee included a fusion of sort of jazz, rock, experimental music- it seemed as if the members of the band all had a different idea of what they wanted the song to sound like- not to say that it didn't work, because surprisingly it did (until around the 2.40 mark at which a horrible shrill sound decided to put me off a bit, though only momentarily). Another song that had a bit of dissonance between vocals and instrumental was Orange claw hammer, but once again this didn't take away from the overall enjoyability, though it was too flat to go on for so long. She's too much for my mirror changed up the flow again, picking up tempo and refreshing the senses (once again bordering on that precarious line of harmony and discordance). Hobo chang ba essentially carried on from the previous song, and not much more can be said aside from the half way point incorporating an actual tuneful beat. The blimp destroyed this in a way that I couldn't decide if I loved or hated, with its wild circus atmosphere. Steal softly through the snow once again played into the clashing aspect whilst bringing it together with some coherent sections, carried on by Old fart at play. Wild life was insanity, goofy as all hell, but had the instrumental and production quality of a middle school music class, instructed by an enthusiastic musician who has to try not to cry every time he teaches them (and not because their playing is beautiful). Veterans day poppy brings the album together, with a softer and slower tone that leaves you to wonder what on earth you just listened to, and whether you liked it or not. The answer....some of it. And the rest of it? Let's just say I'd use it as good torture music.
Repetitive and uninspiring
A bit repetitive but otherwise good
