i expected [album] by [musician] to go way harder than that with the hype it got but i feel like it's actually less raw & ~feral~ than previous albums. most of the instrumental i feel are way more pop-y, polished and less adventurous than they have been and the themes, while conjuring beautiful and deep and important images and imagery, are neither particularly niche nor songwritten about in particularly innovative ways. i'm sure it hits for people (and i see it does!) but i feel like the hype around it comes from. well i think some of yous don't listen to a lot of variety. and that's oaky. peace and love on earth

#to be fair my problem is that i listen to peter pringle's The epic of gilmamesh in Sumerian song and i'm like such a banger they haven't #done better since. and well. it was a while ago #let me not just say that and not recommend stuff i consider i was recommended [album] and it didn't hit but i'm recommending stuff and mayb #it'll hit maybe it won't... hold on #out of my head i can recommend mariee siou's faces in the rocks album (north american indigenous x eastern european); zwyntar (ukrainian) #i've also liked esben and the witch's no dog; hagia sophia by irfan; asaf avidan's labyrinth song #some stuff by Księżyc (polish) and by DrakhaBrakha (ukr.) #Tuularym by Uch-Sume-R (Tuvan if i'm not mistaken [indigenous siberian]) #if you like reflection ON languages i can recommend corpo-mente #werewolf by cat power :) shum by Go_A (ukr.) some strange forest by mariah woods
