Tear... was hoping for No Shape by Perfume Genius. Probably the most vibrant/ full of life album of 2017.

I have a bit of a problem with both these albums; The Ariel Pink sometimes has beautiful songs but I always have the impression that they’re meant to be a parody of those songs (or of the style of music it is meant to copy).
And Perfume Genius is just completely the opposite because it sounds so serieus and delf-indulgent.

But finally i have chosen for Ariel Pink.

And btw this was the last duo of albums in round one for me

Went back to both albums before voting. I like the Ariel Pink album, but I love the Perfume Genius album. Great songwriting and production throughout. While Ariel Pink generated a great hazy, psychedelic atmosphere, his lyrics were very uneven, and some were downright bad.
