Yeah this is ok but it's a little drab. Yer wan who does the singing – there's a technical name for that, isn't there? What is it? Let me think ... oh yeah. Yer wan who does the singing. Anyway, yer wan seems to have some sort of weird French or European accent, so it's maybe odd to find they're Canadian. Or, maybe not. Canada-France/France-Canada? Either way it's a little drear and depressing, which is odd with the mostly upbeat rhythm behind it. So that's darkwave is it? Can't say I'm sold. God this is dreary. I'm tempted to hit the eject button but I'll try and last it out. What's next? Indie rock, then jazz, some power metal coming up... not too bad I guess. Better than this watery tripe anyway. Sigh. Is it over yet? It is? Hallelujah!

Expectation Index: 8
