So I'll put it in here which is ultimately a contradiction because if I already think that than why would I think people read my journal?

Jk though, never mind all that, people read it probably.

This is a masterpiece of indie rock, a true 10/10 in my eyes. It features a strong loud-soft dynamic, subtle musical shifts awash in repetition, and the most important part, building catharsis. The last track here "You're a King" (played with sludge metal band Toadliquor) builds into some of the most utterly heart jerkingly powerful vocals I've ever heard regardless of genre. Listening to the whole album gives this finale more meaning, more emotion, more appreciation for the delivery. This album is one I'd call perfect.

Also a shoutout to the second track "Slightly Dazed", which is amazingly mesmerizing and has an undeniable black metal influence. That simple drum pattern is basically the epitome of depressive black metal.

If you don't like this then chances are you just don't like music.
