Literally perfect. Quiet,peaceful,Heartbreaking. The sad long moments of instrumentals only make his vocal appearances so much more impactful.

A long album, but honestly if you get into the music, it flies by. Alicks takes us on a trip through his youth, or if not his, the characters youth, but only the quiet moments, the sad moments, the heartbreaking moments. Takes the story telling of a normal album and makes this one special by not being too focused on the flashy moments of life, instead focusing on the moments most relatable to the listener, the moments in between the flashy points in life.
