Ugh that closer is a choice. Finale is neat but no payoff in the world is worth that length of masturbatory verfremdungseffekt bollocks - Racebannon pulled the same schtick better and *slightly* more succinctly on In the Grips of the Light. even fuckin grimace_smoking_weed had the decency to frame itself as a psychotic episode and let suspension of disbelief add a little lubrication



agree on this review's analysis of vocals more generally though



dunno what to rate this, is easily 3.5+ but idk how to feel about it as a whole vs. moments of very clear very excellence

if it weren't for the dragging closer, this would be a five

Guess it depends on if the payoff's worth the buildup for you which as mentioned it very much does and sorta doesn't here and there



I'd say that for what it sets itself up for/how it sequences itself (which I really believe is absolutely excellent) this ends up being substantially more than the sum of its really good moments
