Mac Demarco's newest EP is a pleasant listen, but it ultimately falls short of being a record worth returning to due to its relative stagnation and lack of variety. It's not a good thing when a twenty-three minute EP seems much longer than it is due to the aforementioned qualities, and while it's not bad, it's far too middling and lazy to be impactful. "No Other Heart" is a highlight, but besides that, things aren't memorable, even if they sound decent. The music is just kind of "there", you know? And it's unfortunate, given his success with his previous LP's
