the original review I wrote for this album was done when I was 15 so it was poorly written and I'd rather delete it from this website but Sputnikmusic is still stuck in the stone age and won't allow people to delete their reviews, or even their accounts. I'm just adding fluff until it says my review is no longer short.

Although 'hymn' typically means a song of praise, it's very difficult to praise these songs....

No offense, but to me your review relies too heavily on genre-naming ("They all also contain bits and pieces of either indie rock, pop rock, chillwave, and ambient.") and listing off shallow complaints ("I don't know. Whatever it is, it's just terrible.") without approaching any profound reasoning for why you feel like they fail at changing up their sound, which in turn makes this record pretty terrible compared to their previous efforts. Try to go more in-depth about your perception of what makes the songs bad and maybe put a little more diversity into your writing, too, because on here your descriptions tend to repeat themselves.

"The songs aren't all that different from each other."

"Lyrical themes aren't all that impressive and aren't all that different from each other."

Doubt I am ever going to listen to this.

Silent Alarm was the one, tho.

Really not that bad. Probably their best stuff since Intimacy, and it's still better than Weekend in the City
