| 4.5 superb | binthefailure | February 27th 22 |
A perfect representation of midwest america. Every Time Around hauntingly beautiful, Fillmore County is one of my favorite songs from 2020, Central Time is a bop. Vansire only keeps getting better and I'm excited for their next album

I disagree with what's been said here or the average rating. To me this is clearly (and by far) Vansire's best work yet. It retains the versatility and desire for exploration of Angel Youth, but in a much better flowing and more coherent version, with the shorter length also helping. My issue once again are the vox. This album could easily sit in 4.0 tier if only they had given the vocalist a shot of adrenaline before studio time or something. I did have hope on 1 and thought he might have woken up a bit compared to prior records, but no overall to me the vocals just don't match the energy of the record and bring it down. That being said, this is isntrumentally ripe with ideas and surprisingly cohesive for something this diverse. 1 and the first half of 2 are perhaps classic Vansire, but after you've been saddened by the vocals 2 starts throwing a funky groove at you and you realise this might still be good. 3 is synth pop, that transforms into chill hip-hop; 4 is great too and saw my rating increase, and the transition into the Tychoesque 5 is super on point, the flow into 6 is great as well, and 7 ends things on a Message to Bears note with vocals that are more heavily fx'd which makes them work better. The record that convinced me that Vansire are a band worth following. 3.5

not what i was hoping for at all, vansire are much better at full on dreamy/hip hop inspired stuff than this boring indie pop aesthetic
