"Re-listened to this album post-hype. Initially, I thought it was pretty mediocre, but listening to it again years later, I really enjoy it. It's a bit shallow, and I get the "pretentious" rub people take away from it, but I think they're just trying to have fun. I'm convinced music this beautiful can't spring out of pretentious hearts."

"This album sweeps over you like a wave. I would tell you what kind of wave, but I'm pretty sure you already know."
