"i saw an angel in the mirror" is the definition of how indie gets overlooked. It has complex layers, intricate storytelling, and a wall of sound not heard in shoegaze since likely Loveless.

I would compare Slayyyter's album to this, but both are absolute divas and I won't even try. Take my AOTY. You deserve it.
Peggy fans now learn Peggy never had anything useful to say, and I guess they're mad about it. To be honest, I was never one to really care about lyrics; I mostly focus on production. So really, this album isn't that bad in my perception. In fact, I think it's actually quite good. But who knows? Clearly not Peggy fans and clearly not me.
The thing about this song is that I genuinely enjoyed it, but I would have enjoyed it more without the autotune IN THE LAST SECTION IN PARTICULAR. Otherwise, I didn't think it was too bad.
"Funeral" remains Arcade Fire's more consistent listen, but "Neon Bible" 's highs are miles higher. This album mixes the strings influence of "Funeral" with a more synth-y sound in a harrowingly ethereal way. This album, in my mind, sounds like a sea of ink, sloshing back and forth, dark as the timeless deity's cloak. I believe this album is almost that deity, existing as long as we humans do.
