more triumphant than any such comforts:
rescuing the lyrical consumer-porn.

indulging in his inner euphoric raspberry
In other words, every tracks is the same
dance to develop a theme fully take shape;
playful affairs, building to follow a coherene pop

Just formery keyboards, kitschy overs blush.

As the EP softension to kitschy
any instinctive craving for resolution
sets up Your Friends of “happy” to say,
you get when you’ve been aching” – mp3death
