I thought Maynard was a fellow Asian-American brother but he's just kinda ugly.
I found this band through a blend I made with someone. The song was Sometimes Memory Fails Me Sometimes. The song enraptured me instantly and it is still a personal favorite of mine. I quickly became a fan of the band and listened to the first half of this compilation. Three months later I finally got through the rest. The second half is marginally weaker than the first but not as much as I anticipated. Taxi and Across Puddles are among some of the highlights on the album. The band has a very ... read more
Recommended by my good pal Philip who has a knack for these math rock emo bands. It features some pretty catchy earworms but doesn't really go anywhere. It's only 14 minutes and 5 tracks.

I am of the minority that prefers his first album over this one. I prefer the more ... read more
I discovered this album when I went to check my discover weekly on Spotify, hit shuffle, and Fell on Love was the first song that appeared. I was instantly enraptured.
This album is perfect. There is not one second I would want to change about this album. Everything is so top notch. The production, the flow, the songwriting, the vibe, everything. It is absolutely gorgeous and never even has a dragging point. Every song hits all in their own unique ways and I haven't found a single ... read more
