| 3.5 great | Bedex | April 28th 20 |
This one felt inexplicably flat despite having dynamics in both song and composition. The tracks just feel like they blur into each other as the listener's attention drifts away and is only called back in a select few places. The weird thing is there are calmer songs and more aggressive songs, rhythm changes etc, but they fail to make the album feel dynamic and colourful. Maybe it is due to the relatively unchanging vocals? I guess in itself that makes the album an interesting piece to analyse and learn about record construction. So yeah for most of its course this is lighthearted ilE material with occasional math-rock guitars here and there (see 6 eg). 9 is a fun song that I recognise from idk which other one of their records, and is pretty much the first time the album grabbed my attention beyond 'this is nice'. 10 is boring piano, and is followed by 11 which is another waking up point with its weird but cool electronic style. The verse on 12 is catchy, but it felt like it was about time for the album to end. 13 felt like that again, as its protracted conclusion feels a bit like an album finale. The actual closer is a great track and album high point though, finally offering a rupture that works with that funky guitar at the beginning, unfolding nicely, and ending on a cool bass solo conclusion. Bumps this a point to 3.4
