I picked Brown Study purely for the Jens Lekman vibes. However, this entire album just gets more comfortable with every listen. This might be a niche take, but to me it's as if singer/songwriter Jens Lekman turned his hand to dream pop and trip hop while taking the rhythmic vibes of Cigarettes After Sex and dialing them up to "waking up in the morning after sex" tempo. It's a sonic trip is all I can say. riotgrrrl_meg
Autumnal, transcendent tunes whisper of times gone by, boundless in their comfort and evocation... At times fuzzy and pleasantly clattering, the album retains a lulling essence that, in the usual way of The Radio Dept., tugs ever so gently on the heartstrings of the listener, awakening feelings that flutter by like leaves in the soft winds of reminiscence.

Well... Like some people here, I never really liked that song! However, this is *so* much better than the original, for all the reasons already listed by deluded_marxist! The depth of feelings here, especially from the vocals but also the slow music, really is on a whole other level! Thanks to Tara Tantrum for taking me here! Highly recommended!!! bmurator
