This is a classic for all the right reasons.
Ween is.. well it's Ween. And according to them this is their masterpiece. Hey, guess what this albums theme is! Bet ya didn't say ocean! Guess they really took a "deep dive" into the theme! Jokes aside this album does do it's concept justice, from the Sea Shanties to the synths that make you feel like your swimming above some beatiful ass corals, basically, the Ween bros are not scared to fully embrace the ocean part of the ... read more
I actually forgot to review this song when it dropped, oops.
I think I made it pretty clear that this is my favourite out of the 3 singles. I love the sound of it, Vince's cadence and flow are fantastic (especially at 2:10), and the chorus sounds straight up intoxicating but I think it fits in perfectly with the whole blackberry marmalade thing.

And the last single, "Cotton," is a ... read more

The Board of Canadas are back :))
I'm not a professional BOC analyzer but I think this album is the aftermath of "Collapse" off of Tommorow's Harvest. I might be 100% wrong but I think it makes sense since thematically speaking Collapse was the last BOC song (excluding the single "XYZ"), and that song was all about like the start of the apocalypse, and this album also pretty heavily leans into the apocalyptic themes. It might just be my insanity speaking but shit ... read more
