This was a very lovely indie EP, with some charming, smooth guitar playing and rough, country style vocals that reminds me a lot of Bon Iver, and I quite like Bon Iver! Unfortunately this was only until the last song, ‘Call It Quits’, which has very jarring, unpleasant vocals and mixing that hurt my ears, so that was a huge let down.

(analbumaday day 289) Another album that whilst I see it good, I can't explain why I found it eh. It could be because it's short and sounds like any other indie album or just the fact I didn't care much for it. I'll try and give it another listen, but... I probably won't.

RATING: 7.3/10 (7.31)

A charming little folk EP from Ripto that juggled diverse vocal and instrumental styles across its short runtime – the guitar work especially being something that held my attention. While there’s not much there beyond what I’ve described, it was an entertaining listen that didn’t leave me disappointed.

BEST SONG: Icarus & Apollo OR Call It Quits
WORST SONG: Magdalene, My My
