I've given up on this band.
The production is awful, Kill Me is a mess from the start with Jimmy's vocal being too hot (on basically every song) to the music just being lost in the mix when everything kicks in. These are just amateur mistakes.
I had the same issue with Ballet The Boxer. Jimmy should not be producing and mixing his own music, and if he has someone assisting him, then that person does not have in idea how to make a professional recording. This album sounds like a demo.
I honestly couldn't even get into most of the songs on the it either due to poor production or maybe it's just lazy songwriting.
I like the word 'aimless' described above because it's so fitting, these songs just hang out for a while in the verses and there is never a solid pay off, they just meander along until they just dissipate into nothing.
This is also what makes these long waits between records a brutal test of patience as a fan because it's not like he's perfecting superior sound quality, this could have been released a year ago, it would not have sounded any different.
It's just disappointing.
