There's some value to be gleaned from this record but mostly it's just very weak on all fronts
There are still tracks on here that make it clear that she still isn't 100% sure who she is as an artist, but for the most part this is a very impressive record
Lots of ideas and lots of talent on show here, but the execution and composition is lacking for large swathes of this lengthy record
Unfortunately it doesn't quite maintain the highs, but still an extremely solid record throughout
Doesn't sustain. It's 50% debut quality, 50% filler lacking energy and ideas. At no point would I describe it as bad however
Grows a little weary towards the latter half, but still a very strong sophomore release
some really strong tracks on the back end but too much of this feels forced, like the duo are trying just a bit too hard to be who they claim to be
There's a quality there undoubtedly, but the songs just don't captivate or click the way the best Elliott Smith does. It all sounds a little uncomfortable
