It sounds very cheap, trashy and throwaway, and very much lacking in depth and substance. Although I'm quite used to listening to albums with a harsh, abrasive production, the production on this album just gives me a headache and makes it's 30 minute running time seem much longer. |
Maybe because I'm a novice in the arena of noise pop but I friggin' love this album and I can listen to it all day on repeat.
I also feel like what ropes me in is the bass sound that some of the tracks have.
Sure, it's not deep or have much substance but all music doesn't need to have those two things especially when it's just a pop type album.
I could use this album as a bridge album for people that are into hip hop and they would love it. I told my roommate about it and he loves it. He's more into rock though with a little hip hop on the side but it's very accessible.
