A refreshing R&B pop record that is equal parts melancholic and uplifting.
I can't say I'm the biggest fan of Teenage Priest. However, the few tracks of theirs that I have enjoyed have all had one thing in common: a great bassline. This album instantly had my attention with Best In Show, which has a CRAZY infectious bassline, and is easily one of this album's best tracks.
This album's biggest strength (and weakness) is that each track flows so well into the next. The ... read more
MASSIVELY underappreciated indie piano rock. The sound is reminiscent of Keane, Elton John, and OneRepublic. This is one of the most consistently enjoyable albums I have ever had the pleasure of listening to. So many of the tracks on here have an innately classic quality to them.

Solid indie space rock that doesn't take itself too seriously. This an extremely well-produced EP that starts off sleepy but absolutely sticks the landing. There are some really nice guitar and synth solos in here, and the back half of the EP is pure ear candy. Junkies and Rarities is one of the most electric songs I have ever heard.
BEST TRACK: Junkies and Rarities (92/100)
WORST TRACK: Edith (67/100)

This album takes the synthpop of Djo's "DECIDE," the funky jazz of Men I Trust, and the ethereal vocals of The Marias' "Submarine" ...and it smashes them together in a violent car wreck.
Although I understand why people are hyping this album up so much, I feel like it is not receiving nearly enough criticism. Sure, there are some genuinely nice instrumental moments and there's a lot to like about this album musically, but all of its best moments are massively ... read more
