I think his stuff is quite varied, and opinions on a given album can be quite different, so I believe the only way to somehow please everyone is this way. Until we reach the finals and we start to yell at each other  :lol

Dunno what to vote on this one tbh. It's one of those records where I find it hard to know when a track ends and the other starts. Might have to relisten. Veneno Para las Hadas, maybe.

Yeah, let's get this done. I can't vote in Blackfield because I'm not familiar enough, but Steven's solo career is a go for me.

Twilight Coda

Oh really? It's top 4 on the album for me - reminds me a bit of PT.

I see what you mean, but it never quite comes together enough to be great.  To me, Only Child, Harmony Korine and Significant Other are easily the three least best songs from this.  Everything else is gold.

Easily this. It's grown on me a bit, but I still find it a bit meh and repetitive.
