0.0 former sputnik's home post-punk maester | October 29th 18

that's a real peculiar stance, Doof, considering you liked that Friedberger horse and Cigarettes After Sex.

EDIT: Sinternet, as much as I agree with you on the quality of Julia's otherworldly music, you are instigating an infringment of
these gentlemen's rights to free speech and I will not stand for it.

3.0 goodgryndstone | October 29th 18

dense and intricate does not a spectacular album make

3 Bumps | Bump

1.0 awfulBrushedRed | October 29th 18

The audio equivalent of the flower halo Snapchat filter. Also ?Les Jeux to You? may be just the worst song I?ve ever heard. My ears are crying blood

My Sint/Doof slash fic will be done by the end of the week and will be presented in the
form of a 2.5 review of this album I haven't heard by this artist I don't care about.

3.0 goodWinesburgohio STAFF | October 30th 18

the long album is always a gamble: if it manages to sustain it's weight and convey itself in such a way as to make the duration either necessary or redundant, it's more likely to be brilliant. but if it doesn't...rHolter kind of falls into this trap: it's hard not to admire the bombasticness of the conceit but not only is it bloated but the wrong bits are distended. There's vision and power in economy, and the textures on this album particularly in her oeuvre demand it, which maybe unfairly draw us again to the albums length and breadth: if she can't do in 90 minutes what other musicians of a similar ilk can do in 40, why listen to it all? one forgets that trapped inside the vellum there are countless configurations of better albums, even brilliant ones, but the dermis is so dense it makes it hard to parse. a round-up of everything that makes her great, sure, but a deeply frustrating one.

4.5 superbFaraudo | October 29th 18

This album is DENSE and not an easy listen by any means, but I'm actually surprised by how much
I'm liking it. There's not a lot of music that sounds quite like hers.
