After another listen, I realized I needed to up my rating. This is such a creative record. I find myself returning to a few tracks specifically. "Superstar" in particular is my favorite because it showcases Self's experimentation, their more raw, grunge inspired sound, as well as their softer acoustic sound. "Cannon," "Missed the Friction," and "Mother Nature's Fault," "Borateen," and "Sophomore Jinx" are also quite good. The album has an overall alt-rock/ pop sound, and the lyrics are cynical and sarcastic. This is definitely a worthwhile listen and you should get it if it shows up in a thrift store or something
