Tomb

A really pleasant album choice, like a fuzzy blanket of depression.

This is so so so good

It makes sense that this person tours with Sufjan, because Angelo sounds like a not-quite-as-well-formed Sufjan. Enjoyable!

Beautiful. I happened to get this on a cold, rainy day. It was perfect.

VRaiment bien, C'est super calme et ca détend. un bonne musique d'ambiance pour un petit moment. 4

7/10. This was good. I enjoyed listening to it. I feel like I should have more to say about it, but I guess this is it.

Very nice. Quite reminiscent of Elliott Smith and Sufjan Stevens but still different enough to be interesting. 4 stars.

Very minimalistic. Sad, yet dreamy. Not something I'd prefer to play spontaniously. But could appreciate this

Had this on in my headphones, meandering around town on a bike late at night after an eventful day. It was perfect.

This album is sparse with fingerpicked guitar and high almost whispered vocals. Angelo De Augustine’s influences are clear but I’m not sure he’s doing anything new here. I enjoyed the album he did with Sufjan Stevens but this is a bit subdued compared to that. There are really beautiful moments here and there are some interesting melodic turns. Though sparse, the music is actually very layered and benefits from headphones and close listening.

Not gonna lie, not really my style at all. But generally dig concept/theme albums. The theme of breakups are pretty much universal and we can all relate. Understand why someone would really like this album, but the soft-spoken folksie-ness of it is a turn off for me.

I see that this guy is on the same Ashmatic Kittly label as Sufjan Stevens, and he definitely sounds like Sufjan lite. I Could Be Wrong is nice, but the samey sameness of every song on this album and his oh so delicate voice gets a bit tedious after awhile.

Why is the singer putting on such a silly voice

Started out strong for me (definitely in my wheelhouse as a Bon Iver, Sufijan Stevens fan) but feel like he doesn't find enough range and it all sort of fades together. The vocals only come in one tone and temperature and the music is so understated as to almost vanish at times.

Breathy modern alternative/ indie is a lot of people’s jam but never has quite been mine. Nothing hurtful I’m just not that interested

Tasteful guitar here, tasteful vocal layering here... De Augustine's arrangements have all the benefits of our century, though the songs feel as likely assembled on tape as digitally. There are no huge stylistic or formal leaps, just spacious folk music which elegantly evades a temperature.

I like the vibe, but a whole album of it got very samey very quickly. Neat that someone from my hometown got put on this list though.

Definitely sounds like something that'd be on the Asthmatic Kitty label. It's fine, I don't mind the softness but it's a bit one dimensional in the breakup way. Maaaybe if I was in a huge breakup I'd really get with it.

I like this for a track or two, but a whole album drags. The piano based "All to the Wind" is my favorite by far. Makes me wish that was the primary instrument rather than guitar.

A few stand-out tracks, and I like the quiet vibe presented here. But 45 minutes of the same quiet vibe without really that much different things going on is a bit much.

This was nice and cosy on a lazy afternoon. But nothing I haven't already heared behoren in this genre.

The influence of Sufjan Stevens is so great and so overwhelming that it overshadows the merits of the album itself

You own a hipster café and want some easily digestible background music? Here you go!

Gentle, pretty and inoffensive. Very much inspired by Sufjan Stevens but without the experimental pop.

Some nice songs on there. Calm, soothing and generally nice to listen to, but as a whole the album lacks pace and variety.

Not my thing

This was a struggle. 2/5.

Sufjan-lite was exactly what I thought the second the vocals kicked in, and others hear seemed to have the same impression. The compositions are quite rich, and the production feels like you're right there with Augustine around some cozy campfire while he strums his guitar. The songwriting does leave something to be desired, however, as the LP starts feeling a bit repetitive not even halfway in – variation in tempo, dynamics, or vocal delivery could've saved my interest, but I found myself wanting to leave this campfire for a good while.

Didnt think itd bore as much as it did 2

Appreciate the album theme and the talent but not my gig.

Big oof

Just listen to the first song. No need to listen to the rest of the album as it's all the same.

Eh. It was indie music. He has a whiny voice. I didn't care for it. No need to revisit.

I kept expecting this to build to extraordinary. No idea why, but it didn't happen.

This was actually painful, main singer seemed to want to be super quirky but was just boring.
