  • Enjoyable Album with Repetitive Melodies

    4 out of 5 stars
    dusyjal30 May 2025United States🇺🇸

    I'm really enjoying this album. I wasn't familiar with the artist beforehand. I took a chance based on the label and the cover art. I'm loving 'Back Back' and 'Slow Drag.' The melodies are a bit too repetitive for my taste, though.

  • Surprisingly Great Sound

    Quite loud, but there's some awesome tunes too. Definitely would suggest this to a buddy! 😉
