Yeah, like I said, overall I did like it a fair bit. This Track Is My Favourite is probably my favourite song I've heard from any of your projects so far, so I think you're definitely still improving.

"Featuring slightly better production" huh

Well it's still beyond raw and lo fi but it does somehow sound better than the first. I'd definitely agree that the songwriting caliber is higher this time around. The opening track is pretty awesome, with a real simple but memorable riff throughout and intelligible vocals (whatever that means, I still don't know what's being said). Towards the end the treble seems to drop wayyyyyyyyyyyyy down and it gets to sounding like an easier listen, but then it's over after some no(ise)nsense. Oh well. The second track sounds cleaner like the way my ears were teased last time. It's a little fun blues song, and now everything is pretty easy to make out. Pretty enjoyable, pretty short. Track 3 is honestly amazing. The guitar isn't as shred your eardrums into sour cream as the first track, although here I kinda wish it were a tad louder like that, or maybe if the drums were quieter. Shifts into more blues halfway and it's all real catchy. Great song altogether, although I gotta say I loved the first half a lot. Track 4 appears to be 40 seconds of drumming, and I think there was a guitar chord in there. Guitar gets mad raw and loud again with another short track that started off sounding like a cover of "Blister in the Sun" (?). Being electrified this way gave it a surfy quality. Last one is some comedic folk punk with some nice harmonica.

Whole lotta moments I enjoyed a good amount but that didn't always last too long, since this is a real short release with real short tracks. It gets the job done but I wouldn't be mad about taking some ideas here and expanding on them. Like track 3 had the potential to be one of my favorite punk songs ever. Not that I didn't like how it went, but, like, smash the state

I loved track three as well, wish we were still together so we could shape it up more.

I'll review it for ya.

The record starts out with some guitar and it sounds pretty good but then someone decided to record some boring noises for an hour and then it sucks. Would not recommend.

Now The Blinding by Daydream Society on the other hand, what a record!
