UnAlive

Even as someone who doesn't really like Calli's music, this is just a new low. Somehow the mixing is just horrible throughout, the instrumentals are all overblown, and for known producers like Camellia and DECO*27 to be on this record, they either somehow dropped the ball or whoever decided to mix it just decided to try and drown out Calli's vocals with it to the point it got so compressed and scratchy it became unlistenable.

The singing and lyricism themselves don't fare much better, especially with the theming of the record seemingly bouncing back and forth between ego-rapping and the most mainstream pop radio attempts to have a sad, relatable song possible. While the more lowkey moments do tend to be better off just cause the instrumentals don't sound like they've been recorded at the bottom of one of those kitchen sink shredder things, they instead just feel like they aren't special, being painfully average in a world filled to the brim with lowkey indie pop ballads.

No, for real, why do the instrumentals sound so bad.
