>the cymbal crashes during the choruses of "Offspring Are Blank" are TOO LOUD. The middle run of songs (specifically "Dance For You" "Impregnable Question" and "See What She's Seeing") are my favorite because they're so unabashedly sentimental and happy.

>brings a lot of noiser influences like TVU and MBV in a country/folk setting which is cool and interesting and I haven't found much that replicates it perfectly outside of Hope's other projects
>obligatory Hope's voice is gorgeous
>people don't like how samey it is but these same people probably dislike/haven't listened to much slowcore
>>sound-wise it's actually about as varied as I can ask for honestly. has straight pop in Fade Into You and Five String Serenade, shoegaze in Bells Ring, drone in STTIMS and Mary of Silence, minimalist blues in Wasted, even looks towards Beach House in Blue Light
>downside: first two tracks are so good that much of the album hardly compares, but the rest is still pretty good
>favorite track: Bells Ring. gorgeous melody, gorgeous noise, and I love that accelerando towards the end
>listened to it around 5 times I think?

10/10
Jungle Jim, when I'm not listening to it, rubs me wrong with its weakness compared to the other tracks. But when I do listen to it, I'm always reminded of how damn good it is.
The Everyday World Of Bodies
Too fucking many times. I still listen to it regularly.

>9/10
>Kate reinvents her instrumentation with nearly every track which keeps it sonically interesting
>every song is catchy as hell
>lyrics are top notch and The Ninth Wave is fascinating in terms of thematic presentation
>plenty of 10/10 moments like the outro of The Big Sky, tempo shift in Waking the Witch, poetry in Jig of Life
>key change in Hello Earth (C# minor to F when the choir kicks in) is one of the more interesting ones I've heard in popular music, especially since the bass drops down a tritone (B->F) which sounds more seamless than you'd expect and the re-interpretation of the string drone as the leading tone back to C# is also pretty cool
>instrumentation wise, The Ninth Wave does not flow very well. probably could use some more ocean sounds to really ground the setting, especially in the first track which was before the dream fuckery happens
>the live version of Morning Fog is honestly so superior to the original that it's hard to go back (flows better from Hello Earth too)
