Claire is right. Whilst I don't think it matters too much, there is a distinction to be drawn between this write-up and both SoccerRiot and Jack's poem reviews. That said, fantastic job, Ian, been on a bit of roll these last few pieces. It might be helpful to imbue subtle (even implied) criticism within future attempts of a similar format, but this was an enjoyable read. (:

if it's worth anything, though the review doesn't explicitly address musical aspects of the album, it's written in a way that evokes the record so well that I could read it without context and Slow Burn would still come to mind



whether that justifies an effort this abstract or not, it's still an accomplishment easily recognizable to anyone who's heard it already, and if you haven't, your reaction to this review and the album itself probably won't be all that different



in other words, this isn't useless or solely self-gratifying

after i stopped talking to my once girlfriend for good, after our last hug goodbye, after we parted ways...i walked for a matter of seconds. then ran away. i ran and screamed the first line of Razor Blade, "Brendan, Put Down The Knife". I'm not and have never been suicidal but idk this line just kinda came to me in the midst of my sadness. it was the 2nd to last emotional outburst I've had since. it kept me in check. it made me feel like everything will end up alright. i think about this album quite a bit. i don't consistently listen to stuff like this, but this album really hit something in me.



idk, i've never talked about this moment in my life and it's been almost 7 months since. just had to get that out there i guess.

this motivates me to try and write non-review type reviews for my favorite albums, but I feel like I'd never be able to do it well.

'if it's worth anything, though the review doesn't explicitly address musical aspects of the album, it's written in a way that evokes the record so well that I could read it without context and Slow Burn would still come to mind'

That's what I'm talking about.
