Still House Plants' sound could be described as a sloppy mess of 90s rock with either math rock structure or no fucking structure at all, and a singer whose soulful voice also tries to detune itself into oblivion. The kind of album "to get" - and I didn't really get it.

The UK-based experimental rock ensemble ventures into uncharted territory with their unique take on the genre. While the rock landscape often sees experimentation with soul influences, Still House Plants' approach on "If I Don't Make It, I Love U" is truly innovative. They blend Slint-style post-rock and math rock with lush, angelic soul vocals, infused with a hint of no-wave inspiration. The result is a captivating, albeit unconventional, fusion where the guitars sometimes seem to operate on a different wavelength from the vocals. This dissonance works to great effect on tracks like "M M M," where looping post-rock guitar chords elevate the vocals to new heights. However, there are moments, such as in "3scr3w3" or "Sticky," where the experiment feels stretched too thin. While the album presents an exciting concept in theory, it requires further refinement in execution.
