I give him tons of props for rejecting the path that was laid out for him and putting out exactly what he wants, and it's obviously very important to him to go back to DIY in terms of honesty/artifice/presentation.
Is there any precedent for an artist putting out a lo-fi, home-recorded album to follow up a very polished & produced debut?

Seeing Shamir tonight, no idea what to expect. I suspect ticket sales aren't great as I keep seeing giveaways on twitter.

this weird persistent idea that in utero was "lo fi" is so strange

Update: decent turnout for the Entry, good show. Played a new song with the telling line "my screams were too melodic, no one took me seriously."

No talk about the new album? It's really good!

well maybe just a little really.
Since there's no need to be coy or mysterious about it anymore, here's the track we did together years ago (that came out uncredited):https://open.spotify.com/track/5sbAQIOBfK6yeNm8TMbICF?si=9kk2kwuKQj600W6cEhQiJA

I am loving the new single a LOT, it's a definite step up in quality from his initial basement-indie output, I'm v glad he's found his footing a bit.

Hey, I think Shamir has stopped sucking and is putting out good music again:

i mean the song and shamir's vocal performance are excellent but i would like to point out that the woodland camo crop top with the heart on the front is absolutely perfect as well.
