I Love You, Honeybear - Father John Misty (9/10)
This album is pretty brilliant but sometimes can be muddled in its own self-misery. I can't tell if I should be taking his heartbreaking approach to songwriting as serious or as satire because on one song he is singing about hatred and intense personal feelings and the next song sounds like an absolute parody of itself (bored in the usa specifically)....
Notwithstanding, I love the album and I love that it makes me think even if at times I get disconnected due to his intensity.
