There is folk and alternative along with shoegaze and more here. The main problem on this set is that there isn’t nearly enough difference in tempo, dynamic range or vocal delivery to support it for the duration. That means that while all the songs are fairly strong taken one by one, it all tends to feel the same rather quickly. I suppose in an era where people often only listen to one or two songs by a group in a playlist, that’s not a negative at all. If you are more the album type of person, though, you might find this monolithic.

Moody and dreamy, this is a pretty song. It’s a bit understated with sort of folk meets alternative vibe.

Mellower and quite pretty, this is closer to kind of a mainstream pop song. It’s one of my favorites here.

Slow moving and mellow, this is also solid alternative pop music. It’s a good song, but not all that different from the bulk of the rest.

Now, this is a lot different. It comes in with an electronic sound. The tune is bouncy and has a lot in common with club dance music.

Mellow and slow moving, this is a little lackluster for a closing tune. It’s not bad, but not really a standout by any means.
