*longer tracks

1. (3.22)- restless, sprawling, disorder, sounds like this guy’s on-drug, impatient, punkish vox, w/ disorderly-played saxophone
*2. (7:37)- pollution and psycho; bleak; aggressive; moaning; nostalgic
3. (1.49)- urgent, fiery, brash
*4. (6.41)- makes me think of the seventies of NY underground punk rock scenes, w/ clarinet makes it quirkily fits together, a sense of disorder+nostalgic, brilliant interlude (lights up the song), the end’s a little rush though
5. (1.07)- faster tempo comparing to the preceding track 4, chaotic
6. (3.33)- raucous yet strangely appealing, lurking danger in the dark
*7. (3.32)- bass line stands out, makes me think of some film noir scenes, alluring yet dangerous
8. (1.23)- reverbing vox, provocative, simple rhythm
*9. (9.29)- slow/mid-tempo, slightly nostalgic, petulant, confrontational, genuine/ frank/lovely; becomes more delicate for the last 1~2 minutes; Brilliant song!
