Thoughts

On the first listen through this album, the first couple of songs really stood out and I felt like the rest was forgettable. The opening track is just a really good tune, and then the second track with the countup/down of global population is completely haunting and has stuck with me. I thought the rest could be take or leave, but actually on the second listen through it was a bit better, perhaps something of a grower.

Rating: 3 / 5
