Yeah yeah, and like I said I think part of this is more an issue on the critical end than the musicians'. Read the p4k review today for example, and while I haven't listened to this artist yet from what I gather it's mostly full band stuff and even though the act is nominally a group they don't mention anyone else by name and barely make reference to any other aspect of the music than Jordan herself. It's a problem I have in my own reviewing but it's prevalent in professional criticism too.

Their new album sounds like every other album this year, I get where you're all coming from.

Some neat guitar parts - tired sounding and tiring vocals. Only J Mascis can get away with this type of low energy singing over fuzzy guitars

So far not too bad though

I might revisit, probably has a decent song or two - it's that sort of deal though

Decent aesthetic but the album was a chore to get through. Soccer Mommy did it better.

Clean and Lush are so different, we don't have to compare the two just because both singers have tits

I wouldn't say they're so different. I've jammed Lush 3 times today and it's like the exact same thing lol. just a bit more samey

We're comparing the two because they're both 90's-influenced indie rock presented as a solo project

Idk as a huge fan of both I don't think they sound similar at all but I guess there are some similarities in general

She needs to tell the critics that then.

I mean, she's not directly responsible for what people say or write about her band, it's not like she's being disingenuous or anything. Anyways I'm sad y'all find her boring, I hear some similarities but I think what she's doing is a lot more singular and personal, really honing in on a specific sound
