Vanisher, to me, is a somewhat cautionary tale of self-discovery. Have I scoured over lyrics as I've listened? No not really. Have I taken the time to ensure that my interpretation is "correct?" Also no. But are the parts of the album that attach to me the most related to this theme? Absolutely.
In my few listens, I see Vanisher as describing the story of a lost and disillusioned person. Alone, heartbroken, and unfulfilled by their life so far, they turn to the allure of the sea ... read more

do you have a moment to talk about my lord and saviour underscores

while i found the singles to be pretty good, especially after letting them sit for a while, they absolutely thrive in the context of the album as a whole

he used to be a boy... and now hes a star... (im so sorry)

this record doesn't exactly know what it wants to be. it fluctuates between the darkness of early work like white tiger and the euphoric edm of boy and even 2, without much of a reason and with even less of the energy. this makes for a slightly disjointed listening experience, its pretty reflective of the struggles that hollis is trying to reckon with on this album.

while my opening line was purposefully cringe, i think it ... read more
