Also what Scoot said about Unwound is too true. Leaves Turn Inside You is such a brilliant album

Phero, I feel the opposite - those kind of emo-style vox always strike me as put-on emotion

Phero I think perhaps this just wasn’t quite what I was expecting, thought it would be a bit slower/quieter all the way through but I like the variation on display. The guitar work is also a lot subtler than I thought at first. Lyrics are revealing a bit more too as I listen more - though the lyrics sheet is necessary as the vocals are kinda buried/muffled on some tracks. The latter half (starting with Thirteen Grand) is probably slightly the stronger eh? It’s a bit of a quirky record but I can definitely see myself coming to really love it with time.
And yeah Lucid, Ex-Girl is amazing, the last minute is one of my favorite parts of the album.

The lyrics are what grabbed me first

I like the recurring Ann and Beth characters (anyone know if they’re real?) and the references to other songs in a few tracks, lends the whole thing a very cohesive feel. Do people consider this a concept album?
|
| |
Not so much a concept album but it defo has an incredible amount of reoccurring themes - it’s more so the ultimate introspective break up album
|

I think there's a lot of connective tissue (breakups, getting older, disillusioned with music) but I wouldn't personally consider this a concept album
|
| |
Pretty similar to transatlanticism in that way

Album Rating: 4.5
Personally I consider Transatlanticism a concept album (pretty sure it was intended as such too). This is definitely very similar to that album in a lot of ways; if I’d come to this at the same time I came to that I’d probably find this as perfect as I find that.

Transatlanticism is much more strictly a breakup album tho, tho I can see the similarity
|
| |
This always edges that for me, if not artistically. The guitar work on this is hot shit but I love em both a crazy amount so that’s hardly a criticism.
