Just here to argue about music with strangers on the internet.

Taste Snapshot

“Incredibly well-crafted. A few moments don't work but the highs are very high.”

“I want to like this more than I do. There are three or four tracks here that are genuinely excellent — inventive, well-produced, emotionally resonant. But the album as a whole doesn't sustain that level. The middle section in particular feels like it's treading water, and the closing track, while ambitious, goes on too long. That said, I do think this is worth hearing. At its best, it shows real creative vision, and even the weaker tracks have interesting ideas in them. It just needed a more ruthless editing pass to trim the good from the great.”

“I respect the ambition but this doesn't work for me.”
