However:

"Chiromancer"'s combination of riffs and bongos; "World Turn"'s exceptional saxophone bridge – to keep things fresh.

Idk, I think there might be too many quotations here. Try rephrasing as the combination of riffs and bongos on "Chiromancer" or something like that. Just a nitpick.

It's really heartfelt, kind of reminds me of Dashboard Confessional if their vocalist wasn't a nasal twerp. Really enjoying this.

Aaron's voice is incredible agreed what are the parts that keep it from being a higher rating for you?

While I love the brand of music on display here, there's not as much variety as there could be. It washes over you like a wave which is awesome, but that means every song is relatively similar. Not a whole lot of percussion, period. I realize that the piano-based pop is their style and there's no need for them to change anything they do, but it also limits the ceiling of what they can do because the pace rarely deviates. Also, while most of the album is emotional, there's few songs that pack enough of a gut-punch to overcome the relatively basic songwriting. However, that could be a thing that develops with repeated listens.



I'm not taking anything away from this album though, it's gorgeous for what it is and I've listened to it nonstop for the past few days. I know I generally rate stuff pretty high but a 3.8 is still damn good in my book =)

Well I'm glad I could introduce you to something you're enjoying so much :D in all honesty this is the most diverse of their albums (except maybe the B-sides one Dressed Up & In Line) and the rest of their discography tends to stick to one style within each album although each of the albums is a different style from the rest if you get my meaning

Beneath Medicine Tree is some hard-hitting fairly raw acoustic-based indie with a couple of rocking tracks

In Motion is more electric pop-punk

Eat, Sleep, Repeat is a mix between piano and rock-based songs

You Are My Sunshine is almost entirely piano-based

I think you'd enjoy them all if you like this one so yahhh

"California" from Beneath Medicine Tree is one of the absolute best songs ever written in the indie genre so yeah

Also I don't know if you've heard Lydia before, but they're like, bff's with Copeland and Illuminate is just one of the best albums
