The last two full-length releases from Angel Olsen have not exactly been my favorite. Both fail at really being all that entertaining to listen to by crossing the road too far into being ?art music? for sad people. However, on her new EP, I see her coming back to form with more interesting and textured instrumentals. Like the jazz instrumentals and more booming drums on the opener and ?Time Bandits?, respectively l. Plus the closer also has a good amount of energy to it which I have not heard from her in a long time. However, this album still suffers from sounding stale and somewhat uninspired across its short run time. Fine while it?s on, but not all the memorable.
