These Are the Things

I wasn’t much blown away by the first Pale Fountains record. And, I guess, not that many people were, either, inasmuch as after this one, their second, they were done. 

The well-produced tube way busker sound comes off better here and is an improvement over the first. But, that’s all it ends up being. Occasionally they sound like they are trying too hard to be original and different and just sound forced.
