The first time I listened to this, it was better than I thought it would be, but my second listen was worse than how I remembered it, soooo Ig it's just kind of okay-ish.
hmm I didn't like it as much as I thought it would, bit still pretty enjoyable and feel-y
HOLY LOVE this album falls off after "Don't Blame Your Daughter," although "Holy Love" is really good.
WHY WAS THIS HIDING FROM ME!?
Kinda think it's not as good after first listen maybe...
FINE I'm upgrading this from 95 --> 100
Better than Froot tbh. Froot keeps trying to tease me that it's The Family Jewels, while this in unapologetically itself. Marina is back 🔥
Whole time I was thinking in my head that this style would go perfectly with one of those jazzy swing trumpets. Then the final song, "Nobody," came on, and it was like I was given a gift.
Very good, not as good as Let Live & Let Ghosts, and sometimes I felt like the drums were kinda light(?), but overall, it was better than I expected because I was under the impression that they fell off after their debut, and that songs like "Schizophrenia" were a fluke.

Unfortunately, there is a big drop-off in quality after this lp.
Marvel Hill is probably my favorite.

On Jukebox the Ghost - Phantasmagorical Vol. 1
"Genuinely if this album was cut down to Phantasmagorical, End of the Show, Sea Change, In the Waves, Flash!, Emotional Fraud, Wild Ride, Olivia, Save a Little Room, If You Were A Color, and maybe like Stranger or Truth or smth, it would be a really good album. But it's so long with a lot of mediocre or just kinda alright filler that idk I don't think I can rate it higher sadly. Maybe I'll give it a slight bump."
