13062228, I don't have a nuanced response... For me to enjoy an album, I need drums

HOWEVER..... I can absolutely appreciate the beauty of an atmospheric tune that couples great songwriting and melodies with a percussionless musical arrangement.

Radiohead does this best. But on their albums, they weave in a healthy balance of songs that have rhythmic drums along with the atmospheric tracks. It's a easier to digest in one sitting and makes for a more well rounded body of work.

Because Blonde doesn't have that healthy mix, I have to be in "that" mood to throw it on.
