Thank you! I am so glad I'm not the only one who feels this way. It's an extremely odd sensation. I am not THAT fucking old, but Art Angels is very clearly not aimed at music addicts of all ages. Listening to it gives me a very unpleasantly perverse, voyeuristic feeling, like I'm looking through a peephole.
If for no other reason than that, the album is a failure to me. I can tell it's good. It may even be great... but it's geared toward a very specific audience. Post-millennial college girls and their BFF boy counterparts who don't yet realize that they're never going to hit that, but will certainly revisit Art Angels in solitude when they discover that this is the case.
I've been there! Only with me it was shit like Belle & Sebastian's Tigermilk.
