Terrible. Had a bit of hope at first but man, Joanna Newsom has such an annoying voice. I did not enjoy this one bit. At least one song had a bit of Bill Callahan on it. That was nice. 2/10 Top 1: 1. Only Skin (thanks Bill)

Leland Sklar spielt Bass. Albini engineered. Emily. harfe und stricher? mega frei tempowechsel und so. s macht zf mittelalter? uuuh aber plötzlich mehrstimmig und dur. sehr cool. Banjo! mh oke Monkey & Bear. Wiso ischs so mittelalter core? ihri stimm git noh. blöser sind sehr schön. ok ch finds weird. sawdust & diamonds. sie quietscht viel und chunt ad grenze vo ihrere stimm. sber s isch mengmol sehr guet musikalisch. aber au afoch nöd spannend. only skin. ich ghör kein unterschied. leland sklar bass? mir hend bass. ich glaub sie passt s metrum am text ah was no interessant isch aber meh. AHA NOCH 3.5 MINUTE TÖNT EN SONG FERTIG AHA NAI ER ISCH 17 MINUTE ich ha nöd gern wie sie singt.

I simply did not like this album

I listened on youtube. It is a complete mystery to me why this album is in the top 1,000. Baffling!

Didn’t connect with this one, the vocals were unenjoyable and the harp didn’t overcome it. 1/5.

I do not have time for this off-key, melody-less wailing. Absolutely not. Hard pass.

Dear God, save me from this

If you look up “twee” on Wikipedia it should redirect you to this album. Falls firmly on the “this is not for me” side of the Weirdo Music Spectrum

Stond niet op. Spotify

....this was really really rough. Lyrically it's nonsense, vocally it's poor, the music sounds like it's played in a kings court during the tudor era but Henery VIII was mid way through decapitating the lute player. Its awful and I'm not sure I finished it (as not on spotify) and Frankly I don't care...

Great arrangements and I usually like weird stuff, but I found this irritating as hell. She sings like Bjork and Kate Bush in a joint constipation therapy session.

Bad. Weird. Muppets.

I thought I'd trodden on one of my cats!! If this passes for highly acclaimed mush then I'll pass.

I don’t get it

FUCKING TERRIBLE!!! If I could give a no star rating I would!

I'm sure there are people that this music works for. I am not one of them.

Old timey folky music a lil too slow and weird for me

This is as bad as it gets.

Tedious. Hookless. Affected vocals. Please don't. I can't.

Album was not available 😪

dear god why

i want to call this minge music, but i don't even think minges want to listen to this.

I really did not enjoy this. I just found it annoying

2 stars for the hits... the rest has dated, even if it was ahead of it's time back then.

det här var inte för mig

Art for art's sake (or for people to be able to boast superior sophistication)

Not on spotify

Mouse music

Not cool.
