Sitting on too many drafts. Forcing myself to publish some things even if not fully complete.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Finally sat down and listened to St. Vincent's newest album "Daddy's Home". Right from the beginning, I like the piano, but the moans with the title, and the erotic moans. Is this some weird thing or are you trying to show your intellect with an homage to Zoot Allures?
"Pay your way in pain"
The bass is dope, but my old butt thinks of Sweet Dreams by Annie Lennox in the first song. Reference? Tied in Title wise? Over abstract? Orchestration is deep. Dope. I can still rock this. Reverb/ Echo? Both? Lots of Compression of many sorts. Wow. Lots of it. Thick. (How can I type this drunk and still not look at the keyboard?) Tough Vocals. Shame.
"Down and out downtown"
Wow. Love the lush vocals. So thick. Again very lush orchestration. The bass is thick, smooth, and warble. The twangy guitar. Down and out. Choke at the end. Then Question?
"Daddy's Home"
The Keys part carries the tune at the beginning. Yeah, you added some echo. reverb. compression to a lot of tracks. Ow. Ow. The dynamics are forced.
Oh please. Really? Daddy's Home? Davero?
"Live in the Dream"
Wish you were here much? "Don't do anything that Randall "Pink" Floy d wouldn't do". At this point is this originality, or banal copycat-like. Almost too many references. Like, look how much music I have listened too. 'Fix it in the mix'?
