So this is a double edged sword, because on one side there are very few artist that have such a strong musical identity that early on, a Malcom Todd song is very distinctive. But on the other side he does not push it forward, so there is nothing that is he doing here that he hasn’t done already in his last album.

This has the potential to be one of the greatest bedroom pop albums of all time, it has an amazing concept, great creativity and the right music to it. It is just the execution is lacking, there must be a better way to tell the story than just some random chapters place between each song
