かなり良い作品かと思われるが、

どこも高評価ではあるものの、

思ったよりもメディア評は高くなかった。

 

 

絶賛されてもおかしくない感じなのだが。

 

 

 

 

These new songs are much denser than their Matador debut and breakthrough album ‘Everyone’s Crushed’. Packed to the brim with small details you may not even notice upon a first listen, it’s reminiscent of Alex G. There’s a fatalistic element to ‘It’s A Beautiful Place’ that may not seem obvious at first – according to the album’s bio, Brown has recently been reading political theory and anarchist utopian novels, and it shows. “We’ve got modern idols for the end of an age,” they sing on ‘Playing Classics’.

The record paints a picture of listlessness in a world where smiles seem fake and people crave resistance from capitalistic restraints on expression. “I just want to dance, architecture, no rent,” they continue on ‘Playing Classics’. Brown plays it all with a straight face, balancing out the ambiguous background with their deadpan delivery.
