I got '69 Love Songs (vol. 1)' by The Magnetic Fields from RoemerM. It was pretty interesting, especially on songs like "I Don't Believe In the Sun", where the vocals seem to have some serious Waits influence going on. My only complaint is due to the sheer volume of songs, it seems like there's a lot of space for filler and pointless tracks (Punk Love, How Fucking Romantic, etc.). All in all it was pretty enjoyable, but I'm not sure if it's really an album still having merit to me in 3-5 years. 7/10 (I was tempted to put 6.9/10, I'm so clever lololol)
