the most psychedelic and sun album they ever released. pleasant and light. nostalgic and sad. like TCH(2)
You just described the perfect scenario, Arvy. If it happened like this, I'd be so happy!
I will also add that Sometimes is a return to that kind of sound, but it's still new at the same time. It's hard to explain.
I just hope that if they release a new TCH style album that people lay off it. I have no idea why TCH is considered the black sheep when it not only breaks new ground in BOC's official discography, but it's one of their most melodic albums. Not to mention that there's an incredible level of depth to the sound. There's so many layers for your mind to dig through.
You can tell BOC worked really hard on the album and gave a great message behind it (a happy nostalgic place for your mind to escape to in an increasingly dark world. That's super relevant in this day and age too) and people like Pitchfork took it entirely for granted.
Hopefully this time if BOC create an album with a similar message, Pitchfork and all those other reviewers realize how important a message like that is. Maybe they'll even reevaluate Headphase, but I doubt it. They'll probably say that the new album improves on the lackluster Headphase.
