I haven't listened to this lately because I am not sure. Albums like Pornography sound way darker and hopeless. I love many songs from that album but I don't seem to want to play that as much as I used to when I was happier :/



I think the songs from here some have still a bit of a pep behind them as opposed to "Siamese Twins" or others from Porno, porno. Porto. Uhh that's all it ever was. Also stupid phone edits.

ngl calling a band a 'subtler Alcest' is a funnier backhand than anything i can think of

I know tins of indie bands but not the ones ppl review here. I'll wait to see who Alcest is.

lmao alcest is a corny blackgaze act and subtlety is not usually a concept you'll find anywhere in their universe

This is definitely the first time The Cure has been compared to Alcest. It's either genius or the result of a very small sample size.

once i found a vinyl rip, the one issue i had with this (a weird distortion sound that felt distracting in the production) went away

"lmao alcest is a corny blackgaze act"



not the biggest alcest fan (although i really like them and they are obviously wayyyy out of topic in regards to this album) but if you're gonna call them corny then you'll definitely have to call the cure and robert smith's woeful wailing corny as well

This album has not grown off me in the slightest. One of the all-time great end of career statements.

Drone:Nodrone just claps cheeks. Kinda gutsy to slip in such a banger among all these somber epics. Might have to 5 this down the road
