The Falling man is a good serious EP. The sequence of songs is well managed, no songs are to be thrown away, there are even some very good songs like King King for example, and there are also some twists and turns that bring rhythm. This guy's talented, we already knew that. However, I have the impression that Duckwrth has lost some of his innocence and madness on this project compared to the previous one, as if after the success of Start a Riot (on Spider Man's soundtrack) he planned this EP under pressure to be able to assert himself before a wider audience. It's not a bad thing, but I think he simplified his music at his own expense, which makes the result look so easy to understand and get into his head. The problem with "immediate" music is that on the first listenings, you find it great, then at the end of someone else you have already grasped everything so much that you find it good but no more. This is the situation here
