 Strange, but not to strange. Expected more strange. 
 ”Bit”ish somehow. Not to memorable.

 Well. It was bluesy alright. 
 Not really captivating me. Sensuality and strife. Probably made more sense in the 60s. Good time to reflect on that the world is actually better in a lot of ways than it was before, not everything is going the wrong way. Thanks Nina.

 First impression: "Wow. This sucks".
 
 Listening to this album makes me feel a bit racist and dismissive of Indonesian culture. Lots of high pitched singing, small ”tube trums” etc. Not my cup of tea.

 I just had to go with MCR even though it was nr 5 on the list of most highly rated Emo albums. When I think of Emo I think of MCR.
 
 And no, no it's not for me. Vocals doesn't sound great, music sounds "sloppy" somehow. I guess never having been into it when young also helps kill some of the "glow" that can exist around music.

 What a f-n ride. Anger. Dissonance. Totally incomprehensible vocals even when reading the lyrics. Almost turned it off after 5 seconds. But … it grew on me. At the end I was kinda sad to see it go. 
 
 Perhaps need to listen to it just once more…
