lack of instrumental variety, lack of vocal range, superficial lyrics throughout. None of these are inherently bad and prohibit an album from being good, but when your album possesses all three... The most memorable part of this album was also the biggest slap to the face. I felt most songs were upbeat in their instrumentals while the lyrics were often melancholic (which, for me at least, makes for a disjoint listening experience unless done properly). But then the last song (Down the Road) started with a very nice echo-y a cappella that finally set a tone to match the lyrics, but then immediately switched into the most jarring, lighthearted, plucky melody and I felt, for the first and last time, like a fool for expecting something worthwhile out of this album.
