OVERALL POSITIVES

>the juicy synths sound pretty great at times (On Delay and Golden Gal would be my examples)
OVERALL NEGATIVES
>a lot of the songs here have interlude-tier structure
>lyrics are meh
>the juicy synths sound novel and dumb at times (Lying in the Grass and Summing the Wretch would be my examples)
>song ideas are re-hashed countlessly (the ending of Hocus Pocus and On Delay)
>the vocals on like half the songs here do that "separate syllable" type of singing which gets old by the time you're finished listening imo
>personally not a huge fan of the swampy sound palette
I wouldn't say this album's bad, but it's definitely not great. A lot of the people who do think it's great usually don't have any argument for why it's great besides "if you think it's bad you're just a pitchfork/anthony drone". Seems to me like the positive acclaim for this album comes from contrarianism and a desire to have this album go through some kind of "Pinkerton" treatment. It's pathetic really.

I guess 99.999% of the general population are dumbasses

Rude
>>63670354
i'm gonna hocket you mom and dads assholes
>>63665620
It's actually pretty aesthetically appealing when you're not looking directly at it.
>>63669794
Literally the worst song rankings ivr ever ducking seen. You listened to the album, right?
the more i look at it the more i hate it
>>63670788
the same could be said about your face
>>63670815
With an accusation like that, one has to assume that you did listen to the album. With that assumption, why did you not post your rankings?
>>63665542
>>63665620
I like this cover
>>63670788
What does that even mean
>>63670924
Most bad album art's still pretty bad when it's just noticeable in your view but you're not really looking at it. >>63668760 For a example is still pretty ugly even when it's just a small icon on the screen whereas >>63665620 the general composure of this is still pretty nice.
I mean, what the fuck.
>>63670354
AnCo didn't even know the term before the album came out and people mentioned it
Cmon guys how the hell did this shit get its own thread? I mean, I'm not saying the idea is bad but don't you guys think it's fucking vain enough to talk about your favorite album as it is? Do you guys have to go THAT superficial? Making your own album covers? It's worse than those birds of paradise where all they do is literally make a clearing in the Amazon rainforest (the FUCKING Amazon rainforest) so a female bird will come along and *hopefully* bear their seed...
Guys wtf
>>63671692

Doug actually made it himself and was going for a crude indie DIY aesthetic
