For those that haven’t yet bought into Bladee, EXETER probably won’t be the turning point and, even among die-hard fans, it’s minimalism has already proven to be controversial. But it’s the sort of album that rewards you the closer you lean into it.
Bladee's shoddy vocals stifle the imaginative EXETER.
Edit: (18 -> 65) god fucking damnit
I’m done trying to pretend like I’ll enjoy Bladee some day, this is just straight ear sewage man. When you take away the futuristic production, there is absolutely nothing left. Bladee has a horrible voice, and he is completely tone deaf. Idk what to even say to this
its ok yknow
best track: RAIN3OW STAR (LOVE IS ALL)
worst track: MIRROR (HYMN) [Intro]
I’ve listened to Bladee before so I figured I would love this but I didn’t expect it to be as good as it was, it create a very unique vibe in its short run time
I've recently changed my mind on "Exeter" based on recent relistens (and guilting myself into buying the viynl so I could own all bladees physicals lol)
anyways, updated review time !! (40->76)
"Exeter" was the first of three projects bladee released in 2020, and it's a soild listen. collaborating with ecco2k yet again the two form a futuristic-ethereal sound, the sound design on this is intreasting and pleasant on the ears, the vocals are fine. "Exeter" ... read more
It's not very good but it has love story I guess.
Edit (60 -> 80) please forgive me lord bladee
I wrote this review than re-listened to it and it clicked....... I still think wonderland and merry go round are too repetitive even for bladee but wow almost every other song on this is fantastic
