What the equivalent of "beating a dead horse" but for beating your own prejudice or preconceptions about something? I keep listening to this kind of melancholic acoustic folk(-rock) and keep coming away with nearly identical takes: I like it for what it is, but there is not a lot to talk about. Wow, what a nuanced critique. That's where the bulk of my appreciation and criticism for the style lies. The same appreciation and criticism I have for and of this album, give or take a few undeniably fantastic songs ("Burn a Church" fucked me up).
