Studio noises.

Quite a throw back to '60s garage rock now.

Descending into aimlessness now.

Track 10 - September Gurls.

Shrill guitars.

Nice tune at least.

So far, this whole album makes me imagine there's an album that's exactly the same but better.

The bridges are usually quite jarring.

Track 11 - Morpha Too.

A bit George Harrison.

Beatles-y.

Last track - I'm in Love with a Girl.

Full Beatles now.

Subtly abrupt ending.

It is over.

As Nightie said, it often sounded like something from the late 1970s or even mid 1990s, which was intriguing. However, it wasn't very good, with unwise chord changes and melodic cul de sacs, as well as general untidiness and lack of efficiency.

Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it.

I shall give it 3 stars.

I liked it.

It meandered and was frequently angular and choppy, but that was the thing that made it ultimately what it was.

If you know what I mean.

I kind of get what Wendi-Pops is saying re: there being a potential, strangely superior 'ghost' version of the album floating about in the aether of compossible worlds though.

It's a rough - if not a diamond - gem that could still do with some editing and further polish.

Still...

★★★★

Weirdly enough, Christgau actually hits the nail on the head this time (IMO at least):

Quote :

Christgau calls the album "Brilliant, addictive", observing meanwhile that "The harmonies sound like the lead sheets are upside down and backwards, the guitar solos sound like screwball readymade pastiches, and the lyrics sound like love is strange," concluding his review with, "Can an album be catchy and twisted at the same time?
