The extended mix songs really slows down this album. If it weren't for that, I'd rate this much higher. There are definitely good songs, and the hypnotizing production on some of these songs were great to listen to, and surprisingly catchy.
Best Track: The Right One
Worst Track: Hey (Extended Mix)
Pretty solid R&B album from Nao. She has a great voice, and the production is colorful and lively for the most part. My main complaint about this album is that the album does have fillers such as DYWM, Give me a little, and Blue Wine, which comes off weak when compared to the other songs. However, this is still a solid album, and I'm looking forward to the next project.
Best Track: Girlfriend
Worst Track: Blue Wine
This whole album comes off more annoying than innovative or thought provoking. Some of the oscillations felt ear piercing, and ruined a majority of these songs.This is accompanied with unnecessary layers, where certain layers will over power each other to the point that they become a mess to listen to. I can see some people enjoying this for the overwhelming, chaotic randomness that these songs hit you with. The latter half of the album was more enjoyable when the sounds had more room to breath ... read more
This whole album is so generic and patience testing. Too many eye roll lyrics and super stale beats to keep me willing to finish each song.
Favorite track: None
Worst Track: Hard For
Everything on this is absolutely terrible! If you like this, then we ain't friends.
Only part that was decent was Schoolboy Q's verse on Let It Bang. Hungry Ham has to be the most infuriating song I've heard this year.
This album made me cry so much. The pure sense of utter, grief stricken, despair all over this album made it an absolute memorable experience. Most likely my top album of this year.
When I first bought this record, I had no idea what to expect from it. It was recommended by the owner of a record store I frequent in Florida. After opening it, I was surprised that it only had two songs, Morning and Evening. All I have to say is that Morning is an amazingly beautiful song. I get that a lot of people did not find much substance within this song, since it does repeat itself for the majority of the twenty minutes. However, I found Morning to be the perfect song to listen to ... read more
As a long time follower of Annie Clark's music, this album's direction was unexpected. However, this album presents the perfect explanation that St. Vincent isn't irrelevant, and instead, setting the bar higher for the future of music.
Aggressive, insane, and wonky, this album hits the listener with such velocity that it'll make any sane person lose their cool and express their problems.
