Negativity!

” His voice is still a steamy moan with no edges, no contours, no particularly distinct lyrics — just that sense of closeness.” Yes! This whole review is so good. The first time I listened to this album was when my brother and his girlfriend were driving me to the airport on Tuesday. We sang “Time After Time” over “Beth/Rest” and now it’s Friday and this album already feels played out to me. But maybe that’s just because we listen to way too much Sirisu XMU in the office where I work?
