Sometimes, the things music can do to someone is inexplicable. This album makes me nostalgic for memories that don't exist. It takes me back to the nights of watching local bands playing house concerts in their parents' garage, when the room was full of cheap beer and kids who all got high on the car ride there. This album is in every way amateurish, but that only adds to its wistful, dreamy mood. Any album that can make me feel like I enjoyed my high school years is surely worth a 5.

I get why everyone loves it, but that doesn't mean I have to love it. But I still like it.
Edit: ok fine, I love it.

This is a difficult album to judge, most notably because whether you love it or hate it... you're probably right. Wareham's vocals are oddly stiff and sometimes aggravating, melodies and chord progressions are incredibly similar through most of the tracks and some questionable lyrical choices ("I stood in line and ate my Twinkies" comes to mind). However, what sets this apart is the strikingly emotional and drug-infused agony that is so melodically stressed in this record that makes it so memorable and loved. As for the lyrics, perhaps the argument for "romanticizing the mundane" rings some truth, but take it as you will. But, in the end, it's the "lonely in the summer-night" atmosphere that brings this album to truly shine. Great tracks include the jazzy "Decomposing Trees," dreamy "Another Day" and the anguishing yet beautiful cover of "What A Pity." Let it grow, it might strike a chord on you.
4.0/5
