After currents I truly thought Kevin could do no wrong, and even with the mixed reception of the slow rush, I loved that album and I didn’t feel like the quality of music degraded even though he didn’t cross into any new territory sonically. But boy that deadbeat album is urban outfitters indie cafe music all day. There’s no edge, only musical choices that leave me questioning wtf he’s been doing these past 4 years. But bro is at his peak popularity at the same time and still riding the wave of currents and gaining new fans every day because of it. It’s like his Graduation, it’s gonna be the gift that keeps on giving and allows him to drop stinkers without killing his career entirely.
So who else is saving indie psych rock? I’m fw Magdalena bay heavy rn but what u guys like?

No disrespect but currents is like THE urban outfitters indie cafe music album. I just don't see much difference in his music now compared to then

also, one more thing

idk why niggas are tripped out about the lyrics on here

kevin has NEVER been some crazy ass lyricist at all

i really dare ppl to read out the lyrics to lonerism and currents without any of the music to go along with it lol. i love both of those albums a lot, but they are easily very juvenile portrayals of things like love and relationships given the age in which he was when they were released

if anything, i believe that the slow rush honestly contains some of his best and most mature songwriting of his career

like it's very telling growth that the guy who penned a lot of the angsty tunes on lonerism could write a song like posthumous forgiveness

this goofy got rid of everything and anything that made his music appealing, guitars, drums, cool production and now we're only left with his horrible Bee Gees-like falsetto and not much else but not only that his die hard fans want to convince the rest of us that deadbeat is a misunderstood project no man s*** is terrible
