This bit of personal shopper:

"Consumer of life, hold my hand, extend your rights
It's the power to purchase to excess
That sets you apart and can give you the ultimate high
Abuser of time, if there's something that you want
You don't need it, but have to concede it's making you happy
And that's all that matters to you"

Reminds me soo much of the band Ghost

@Sitar: I mean it's still a good song for sure. Although I do think the message of the song is pretty shaky now with what SW's currently doing...

Yeah, that's a good one for sure. Kinda like how Buying New Soul should have replaced one of the weaker songs on Lightbulb Sun or how Normal should have replaced Sentimental on FOABP

Lightbulb Sun flows so well, I can't imagine any song being replaced. Buying a New Soul could be just added somewhere.

I am surprised how much backlash IA gets here lol

I mean, all the praise can't be without some, but I never saw it in this amount

lol, what are you talking about Kalk? It’s most people’s favorite PT album and even one of SW’s favorites as well... I just think there are about 3 or 4 songs that could have either been trimmed or left on the cutting room floor

Stuff like Postcard is gud Wilson pop.

This album is just fine and nothing more. Maybe it will grow on me in the future, idk. Self, Count of Unease and King Ghost are pretty good ngl. The album is just a huge let down atm

Hellyeah, Postcard is great. Beautiful mix of lush soundscapes and pop songwriting there

Self is hilariously bad and will maybe be the worst track of 2021 unless Lana Del Rey pulls a magic trick
