I gave it a 7. I thought it was a good album and i enjoyed listening. I'd probably listen to them again, but I did find their style to be a bit grating after a while--a bit overly affected. This is def the best we've selected so far, though.

o ya I listened to this, giving it an 8. Something Soon (which is the only song I had heard off of this) is still my fav after listening to the whole thing, but I liked the rest too overall. Agreed that some of it did feel a bit samey tho

Recording this album in a cave was an interesting creative decision.

I really hope that this album sounds better with really good speakers/headphones, because it sounded like absolute shit on my computer speakers. It was bad enough, it was physically painful for me to get through. On top of that, the songs were so repetitive it was annoying. I would be happy if I never heard this album/group again.

I give this album a 2. It would be a 1, but I give a free point for my not-great speakers.

Uhm I had never heard of the genre "Low fidelity" and had to look it up.
Quote
Lo-fi (from low fidelity) is a music or production quality in which elements usually regarded as imperfections of a recording or performance are audible, sometimes as a deliberate aesthetic choice. The standards of sound quality (fidelity) and music production have evolved throughout the decades, meaning that some older examples of lo-fi may not have been originally recognized as such. Lo-fi began to be recognized as a style of popular music in the 1990s, when it became alternately referred to as DIY music.[1]

Harmonic distortion and "analogue warmth" are sometimes misleadingly suggested as core features of lo-fi music.[2] Its aesthetic is actually defined by the inclusion of elements normally viewed as undesirable in professional contexts, such as misplayed notes, environmental interference, or phonographic imperfections (degraded audio signals, tape hiss, and so on)


Can we, as a group, choose to not pick any more albums classified as "Low fidelity"? Thanks in advance.
