This is not /mu/'s style at all, but seriously some of the best garage punk I've heard. The lyrics are surprisingly well written too.

/mu/ still eats up Ty Segall's shit, so it's probably fine.

Never see Alabama Shakes here. I really like Sound and Color.

What's your peoples' deal with Jenny Death? Everyone was pissed it didn't get a 10, but like... It's one of their worst albums imo.It was a big disappointment to get something so musically boring and lyrically annoying as that.

Why a Bitch Gotta Lie and Pss Pss were great songs though.

yeah its honestly pretty good desu. it's a fun album with a bunch of good tunes that have sound design that's pretty experimental when compared to what other EDM producers are doing right now. it doesn't take itself too seriously, so i don't think anyone else should take it too seriously. its a fun album
