3.5 great | Bedex | October 24th 21 | This is a series of reasonably well crafted alt rock songs, usually with quite killer riffs and
instrumentals, and whose overall success depend mostly on where on a scale from annoying to
mildly ok the vocals land. I do see a bit more of why this is tagged dream pop primarily on 1,
but I still wouldn't say that's the primary genre at all. The vox tend to work best in the
explosion/choruses like 2-3 show, whilst 4 is a bit more falvourless but does have a nice phat
final explosion. 6 is more of the same with the chorus feeling a bit gnagnan, whilst 7 at least
reminds me of Little Uneasy a bit with its rhythmics and also has a cool intro riff. 8 is another
one where the vox really don't work even in the explosion, and by 9 you grow quite tired of them,
though the track in isolation actually works quite well. 10 feels more like the previous records
vocally, and on 11 the vocals are laughably uninvolved and uninterested. And the frustrating
thing is that throughout all this the instrumentals are at worst functional and at best really
cool and fat! By 12 you really want it to stop and my rating which sat at 3.4-3.5 for most of
this started to plummet. 13 is the only track that steps away from the alt rock to try something
more broody and soft, and while the vox is meh and the track kinda eh, I guess it's nice to have
a soft peaceful conclusion. 3.3
