An immensely eclectic mix of songs. Certain songs feel like BTBAM "rejects" (rejects in the sense they were too quirky and non-metaly for the act), some have a heavy bluegrass/campfire aesthetic to them, some dip heavily into electronica. Yet, all the tracks seamlessly blend together, truly a candid portrait of Giles' musical influences.

Scared and Armchair Travel are my favorites with their quaint, nostalgic feel. These two make me quite emotional.

A very, very solid 8/10
