I think their debut worked a lot better because her voice fell far less front and center. It felt way better when it fades into the background and lets the music lead the way
Not quite the bangers of her previous work but enjoying the chiller CRJ. Has potential to be a grower
Edit: As predicted, it's a grower
Listening to a Tswift album is kinda like playing the 10th game in a video game series. Sure you can listen and enjoy the pleasant enough music, but to REALLY appreciate it you need to have listened to all the other albums about it then spent years on the Reddit then watched a 5 hour series to fully understand the whole lore of it all. It’s pleasant, but if you’re not a true swiftie, I don’t see much here that stands out
This is enchanting. Reminiscent of old Sigur Ros.Had no clue who this dude is but damn is it pretty
One of their better ones, although admittedly I can't keep up
pleasant little covers album I'll almost certainly never listen to again
I don’t know dude. Her debut had some pretty nice folk songs but this is not that. It’s flowery watered down guitar music. Pleasant I suppose. But not what I was hoping for
I don't know what I expected from a Death Cab album in 2022, but this feels like the best case scenario. It's got some really good songs, particularly on the back half.
The Beths are masters in making songs sound simultaneously fresh and comfortingly familiar
