  (01/21/2026) This album helped me realize more of what I value in albums, and why I didn't really connect with this one. I think it's several things - the pacing, the lack of variety in structure and lyrical themes, and the lack of cohesion within the tracklist.

  My favorite album of all time, plastic death by glass beach, has all of those things in spades. It's a perfectly paced, beautifully crafted piece of work that feels less like disparate songs and more like a grand musical journey touching on bodily autonomy, being queer and trans in an abstract sense, lack of connection, etc. It's amazing, and I always find something new to appreciate on each subsequent listen.

  But this just doesn't really bring any of that for me. This album knows what it wants to be - a very fun, punchy, cute record about love and the woes of romantic relationships - and I don't mind that on it's own! I just wish it got more strange and playful with it's sound and lyrics. It's very in one ear, out the other for me. I appreciate when an album surprises me, but I felt like I knew each song's trajectory in the first few seconds. I respect this album, but it's just not my thing.
