I got about half way through. Wasn't digging it. Had a bad Hall & Oates slow jam vibe.

I really liked it, will try and come back with more concrete thoughts on the album after another listen or two. The whole way through I kept on thinking it sounded like someone trying to do a hipster version of a Disney soundtrack, it's like if How To Dress Well and the dude who scored Tarzan decided to make an album.
The singer himself seems extremely doubtful of who he is and where he is going in the world, a sentiment I can echo, but I didn't really listen to it properly, or rather didn't pay attention to comprehend all of what he has to say.
Okay so that's all I have thus far, will come back later in the week.
The album cover is cool af too.

This. Among the worst.

Haha I was thinking the same thing.
"More Than I Love Myself" and "We Used to Live in a Dream" are decent tracks though.

Solid recommendation. Listened to it this morning. Very soft and light sound with very deep, emotional and open lyrics to boot. Song by song, pretty good but as a whole a little boring. I'm happy with one solid listen but I don't think it'll get another from me. I'm gonna say We Used To Live In a Dream is the stand out track for me. 60/100

I'm about halfway through now and I gotta say I'm not diggin' it. It feels like '80s pop cheese with whiny vocals to me. I'll finish it out and post back here if I have any more insights, but I don't think this is my bag. Sorry, Hayden
