I think it's difficult to write songs about something other than romantic love, and still be able to communicate the intensity with which those feelings can hit a person. Some of the entries on this album are fantastic examples of this niche. dani_bloop
An incredible release from one of the most prolific and talented musicians and songwriters of our time! The sonic range and narrative of this album brings 'The Parts I Dread' on repeat on my listening rotations and leaves openness to the possibilities on what is next for this artist! Harim Jung
