I'm not so sure, I feel my argument as to why I don't like them holds a little more substance than everyone else in this thread saying "they're good coz they're good, here's a YouTube video"

I like his voice most of the time, I enjoy the melodies, and I like some of the textures they use. I don't think it's a long-lasting album, nor the greatest album of the year, but I like it and I enjoyed it for a number of spins.

That's all there is to it, really. When I feel more strongly about something, I have more to say. I don't mind that you don't care for it, loads of people don't, but I don't think it's necessary to start a fight about it in their official thread. That just seems like you're looking to troll, to be honest.

I kind of agree with your assessment. The lyrics don't touch me in anyway either. I'm glad you're enjoying it Vanilla, carry on.

Thanks Fred.

They aren't groundbreaking, but I like them. They're pleasant to listen to (maybe not the broom-rape song, though). I like the vocals, they add an almost "cartoony" effect to the layered and detailed music.
"Tesselate" is of course a favourite, along with "Breezeblocks", "Taro" and "Bloodflood". I think the Intro deserves more praise than it gets.

Listened to it again today and it was completely boring.
