One of my favorites off the most recent album I can’t stop listening to. Don’t really care if this makes me a hipster or jumping on the bandwagon. Don’t care if Pitchfork only gave it a 7.7 (where do the decimals come from anyways? Seriously?). Described as a ‘small effort’ and very ‘2006.’ Pitchfork is hilarious. Oh well, its a fun album, and nice to listen to something that can see past atonality and autotune. Dissonance has its place, but harmony and melody can be nice as well. As far as its size, brevity is the soul of wit. At least this album leaves you wanting more and not wishing it.would.just.end. Note my subtle deployment of the uber hip puncti (plural for punctus) in lieu of more normative modes of punctuation. Perhaps, though, in deference to The Rip Tide’s passe sensibilities ISHOULDJUSTUSESCRIPTOCONTINUOANDALLCAPSLIKETHEROMANS.
