there are some records that i can't wait to begin unpacking after a single listen
this one has a ton to unpack, but its not really enticing me to do so for some reason

I don't know if thats because of how meandering it is sonically
or if its not as verse-heavy as i wanted it to be

but I feel like the process of getting to know this record is going to feel like more of a task than a pleasure.

as i said before, i think its one of the most well-made albums I've heard that has the least amount of replay value. its easy to hear many of these really lush tracks and when its over say "ok i get it" rather than "whoa, what did i miss??"
