Image result for sunbathe all yours/all minegenre: slow rock
Branching off of yesterday's post comes a song that grew on me. I was really feeling the mood that All Yours/All Mine was giving off. The song encapsulates the atmosphere of their band name. Listening to this just makes me want to lounge about, lethargic, relaxed, and at peace. The sun-drenched guitar leads, the composition of the drums, and the particular attitude of the singer all blend to form a picturesque vision of complacency. Although this song may seem outdated (almost anachronistic), it is nevertheless well-written and performed. I think this song fits well into my day-to-day, especially with how calm it is compared to the other songs I've been writing about. I'm interested to find more from them, because they seem to be on the up and coming. Although there's nothing groundbreaking with the particular song, it hits its strong points with finesse and honesty. That's the kind of music I'd like to see more of nowadays.

GENRE: electronic I regarded FKA Twigs  as a more experimental electronic, modern artist. Today's song feels quite grounded in conventional techniques. Nothing stands out to me as groundbreaking or pushing the boundaries of the genre. I did not expect someone else to be featured on this album either. Unfortunately it doesn't add up to much on the album. In the best case scenario, it adds to the already plain and monotonous sound. Rating: 4/10

Day 309: White Gloves by Khruangbin // 5

GENRE: indie I can't quite my finger on why I find this three-piece so alluring. They've got a style to them that evokes a carefree sensibility. That much can be seen in their song, White Gloves . Apparently it's part their first album to feature vocals, and it's a welcome addition to the canvas. No one instrument stands out any farther and more unique than the others. Each instrument is featured and mixed pretty evenly, giving me a sense of noiselessness and soothing comfort. However, I think part of that plays against their favor. It plays more like a lo-fi ditty than a fully realized song. At about 3 and a half minutes, I would expect a bit more to be fleshed out. Rating: 5/10
