Re: Meh, let's do it again, this time for a year
Day 135: Seven (+1) by Entertainment For The Braindead (Album Choice: NinjaKIWI)
This is shaping up to be a very boring Easter weekend, so I should burn through lots of music.
This EP is cutesy soprano vocals on top of intricately fingerpicked melodies. I'm oftentimes a sucker for this stuff (even considering my reaction to Carrie & Lowell) but this music doesn't seem as warm as I would've expected. Sure it's barebones, but the music is ridiculously fairy-like, with the self-recorded harmonies, occasional touches of soft horns or bells, and lyrics so bizarrely forest-children they make Devendra Banhart sound like a businessman going through a midlife crisis.
There is no variety across this release and while it never gets actually grating, it also never really gets interesting.
Best Track: Then It Started Speaking To Me
Rating: 5/10
