I agree completely with you. I do like the first album. But some songs on this album are beginning to grow on me. I'd have to say highlights for me are Holocene, Michiant, and Calgary. Calgary was the first song off the album I heard and I instantly fell in love. I just had to cover it on YouTube. I did something a little different because all of the echoes and reverb added to the voice I thought was unnecessary to a certain degree.
