For years now I have never built into the hype of Perfume Genius, but I could never fully explain why that was because in so many ways he is the exact thing Harry Styles tries to be, even though he has no idea that he is trying to be like Perfume Genius. But on this new album Alan Wyffels goes against his art and ambient pop underpinnings to do something only artists like David Bowie and Scott Walker have been able to pull off; a complete dive into avant-guard and experimental music. ?Ugly Season? on the surface might be an ugly mess but digging into the album and experiencing every second of it immersed in its noisy, experimental, and psychedelic vibes you will see the real beauty of what happens when you dive headfirst into the creative bucket. A truly intriguing and exciting listen that any fan of the artists mentioned or fans of art punk (not sure why but it gives very art punk vibes) will fully enjoy, truly great listening experience.

Mike literally dropped great albums one after the other only to drop their greatest work here. Jeez Louise this one's special.

Do CURRENT YEAR teenagers have any feelings besides self-pity, bitterness, and jealousy? The lyrical content could be forgiven if the music wasn't so derivative, and if the singer didn't sound like she's pretending to have a speech impediment. But I can't blame her, since clean enunciation hasn't been in vogue for several years. It's nothing but the sounds of various 2000s bands (which were already pretty derivative), but watered down 10x.

I?ve been bipolar with this album, ranging from a 7 to a 10 it?s taken me months to figure it out. Challenging but rewarding I make sense of this project as a protean musical aether. It shapeshifts between ideas, genres, rhythms, progressions etc. Formless and creating. Atmospheric and captivating. While being inherently beautiful. 9/10

Once again with Perfume Genius, I fail to embark on the journey they offer me. While the atmosphere sure is haunting and supported by diverse textures, the replayability is close to zero, and the experience never makes me consider stopping what I was doing.
