I wasn’t expecting this album to be as short as it is. It’s so lighthearted and fun to listen to it I think it really nails the laidback atmosphere they were going for. The songs are all super short and a lot of them don’t even have vocals which I found interesting. There’s really not much to say about this it’s just fun I guess.
