Our Take
Our Take
Ah, Cigarettes After Sex, the band that named themselves after the awkward moment when you light up a smoke post-coital and realize you've just had a one-night stand with someone who definitely wasn't as hot as they looked in the dark.
Their self-titled debut album is like that regrettable hookup - it's moody, atmospheric, and leaves you wondering what you actually just listened to. Frontman Greg Gonzalez croons in a voice so dreamy, it's like being serenaded by a particularly seductive sloth.
The music itself is a mix of ambient dream pop and slow-core, creating a sound that's perfect for those nights when you're feeling introspective or just really, really bummed out.
Tracks like "K." and "Apocalypse" are so achingly beautiful, it's like being punched in the gut by your own feelings. And "Each Time You Fall in Love" is like a warm hug from that ex you just can't quit - comforting, yet slightly unsettling.
Overall, Cigarettes After Sex has crafted an album that's perfect for anyone who enjoys crying in the dark, longing for lost loves, and pretending they're in a Sofia Coppola film. It may not be for everyone, but for those who appreciate a good ol' emotional gut punch, this album is sure to hit the spot. So light up a metaphorical post-coital cigarette, put on this album, and prepare to wallow in your feelings. Cheers.
