Disagreed but even still, it’s odd to see an insinuation that his discography is anything less than sterling. I certainly haven’t noticed anyone else becoming disillusioned about Elliott Smith in recent years; the same cannot be said for the article’s cited class of ‘09 all stars.

Most of his songs have that "damn peggy" sample

The hook in How Deep Is Your Love? is a note for note rip of the chorus of "The Thong Song" by Sisqo, as many pointed out upon release. Great song though

billy woods has been doing this for at least a decade if I recall correctly... It's still annoying but it's hardly a 'new trend'

This is going to be his fourth solo album. Clear Heart Full Eyes came out in 2012.

What does the claim that this album "holds up" say about either NTMT or "almost ever other 2013 LP"? Like "[album x] was ahead of its time," it's a meaningful-sounding but ultimately vacant phrase, absent any context or elaboration, which indeed is what's missing here. Hence my comment.

"It holds up better than almost every other 2013 LP" huh? it's a solid album but what does this even mean?

Amazing title. Surprised it hasn't been thought of before, as far as I know. Kind of excited for this...

yeah, this band is about as "cool and real" as SXSW itself

"the middle" is indistinguishable from closer by the chainsmokers, possibly an even lamer song

No mention of his excellent split with Porches from 2014, which got a lot of press upon release and was my introduction to him. https://seagreenrecords.bandcamp.com/album/porches-mdou-moctar-split

this band looks like they stepped out of 2008 bonnaroo, obviously not in a good way. Bait-takers stay getting played

This song is a little bit on the nose lyrically, don't you think? Powerful chorus but I'm not sure there's much substance behind the lyrical clichés... It's pretty much "Born This Way."
