Sworn Virgins sounded like a sort of Matalan Mars Volta to me. I didn’t really mind it, and tracks like Logged into Bliss were really strong IMO, but it was all a bit busy for me.

Now listening to Corazones and it’s a bit more sedate and quite lovely in places. I don’t really know how I feel about it. It’s got that 60s inspired jangly Indie vibe I’d associate with early Tapes ‘n’ Tapes but it’s never been a sound I’ve really got into big time.

Are they all shit? Bet they’re all shit.

I really like sworn virgins, the rest are a mixed bag, some are shit aye.

#21

I liked some of Weekly Mansions, when it was being industrial electro pop. Zapopan was ok in parts too. it was more like the more focussed of the guitar stuff he was doing ten years ago.

Think Kool AD still has Omar beat for sheer quantity of music released this year - 8 mixtapes/albums so far, 2 of which have contained 100 tracks.
