Thoughts

This is such a weird album. There are real oddities on there, of course, Dark Ballet being a particular example of that. But actually some of the songs are quite good individually, it’s just a wonder how they are all on the same album. It doesn’t flow at all, skips around amongst feelings and sounds, and is generally something of a fever dream.

But it’s not as bad as I thought it was going to be, given what I have heard some people saying about it. And the second time I listened through it was a bit better than the first, so it may also be a grower.
