his music is completely mediocre. his voice has an unpleasant dopinesss to it, like it's too rounded off or something.
his lyrics are simple to the point of sheer banality, oh sorry but that's 'stream of consciousness' right?
his production fucking sucks. all his shit is absolutely drenched in noise and the instruments are generally mixed together with the scrutiny of a newborn learning to distinguish shapes. 'but dat's lo-fi x DD' no, lo-fi implies you actually made an aesthetic choice and don't just suck at recording.
stop making excuses for this average (and that's being generous) talent. it's okay if you like him but from any objective standpoint of measuring music, artistic vice and everything that came before it are 'just okay'.
>his production fucking sucks
thats the point
i've never listened but yeah he sucks
You're taking it too seriously.
Isn't he schizophrenic
yeah I never got the appeal...I have friends who love him but I'm not really sure why

leave daniel alone, hasnt he been through enough?
(and his songwriting alone is GOAT, Walking the Cow, Casper the Friendly Ghost, and Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Your Grievances alone are enough to bring me down)

He probably only went with that excuse because amateur home recording sucked major ass in the 80s without the proper equipment. Nowadays anybody can plug in their damn Blue Snowball mic and record the sound of shitting in fantastic detail.
>people actually falling for the copy pasta

>muh sad guy making le lo-fi indie music
he's not very good, but if you approach it in certain mood he's perfect
