I feel bad about taking a dump in your thread. The last third of the new track is actually pretty okay.

Wasn't sure where to post this, but how was that Melody's Echo Chamber EP so slept on this year? It's gorgeous.

more than The Beatles, the album reminds me of Todd Rundgren, esp. the wizard, true star record

^this. the one-man studio jams to the drum sound to the warmly layered analog keys & synths & vocals in places). the instrumentation/arrangements/production makes me think of "Tic Tic Tic, It Wears Off" or the psych-soul of "When the Shit Hits the Fan/Sunset Boulevard". the bass playing is real cool and it really nails that 70s studio aesthetic. none of the songs stick out too much except "Elephant. kind of a horror glam rock song, more like T-Rex. it's incredible but sounds like it's from a totally different album lol.

I am relistening to this today and Keep On Lying really stood out before Elephant. I agree with the person who said that the fuzzy synths are the best thing about this album. Whatever the exact combination of influences is, the sound is great.
