As unchanging as the music may be, if you give this music the time and patience it deserves, it changes you. In the same echelon as Gavin Bryar's truly memorable 'Jesus' Love Never Failed Me Yet'.
A delight from start to finish. For the first time in a while the auto-tune somehow increased the enjoyment gained from this.
Don't neccesarily go along with the notion these songs are enhanced with this increase in production and nuance, but it still does showcase her talents with damning lyrical songwriting.. Fine.
Immediately intrigued by what felt like a uniqueness in the field of indie pop. What followed was a soft wave of pleasentries. Which is fine.
Supremely lush and there ain't anything wrong with that. The songs are, at once, present and a far distance away.
A bizarro JEFF album where it gets better as it goes on. Unfortunately for them (as the first half is a steep change in direction) is that's when they sound the most like old JEFF.
Apologies to be sent to every indie band from 2005-2010. I was bored to tears.
