Singer, Songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Nick Levin shares a new solo album under his new alias Jodi and it is both heart-wrenching sad, musically minimal, and stylistically stale. Although there are some really bright spots laced throughout this very slowcore-inspired album, the best parts of the album are the alternative country elements that make their way on some of the tracks. Still, several tracks weigh down this project with their extremely minimal yet horribly executed tracks that feel out of place. This is a lot like if girlpool met Red House Painters/Sun Kil Moon and left out the energy and storytelling of both.
