Just a handful of songs, I barely have time to listen to music these days. What's impressive is the amount of detail their songs, both musically and lyrically -- QOTMS was released six years ago when they were aged 18, 16 and 13, and there's some serious song craft going on there. Of the songs I've heard so far, Ugh is the best example of that. The Error album is right there too, especially lyrically.

Barely have time to listen to music? Oh I can’t imagine :(

Yes, being able to write the way that they have at such young ages is one of the big things that impresses fans the most with the first three albums. I've always said it feels like they're writing songs that someone who is ten years older would be writing. There's a lot of little things in what they do musically that people don't pick up on right away. At first, the songs seem pretty straight and to the point which the majority of their songs are. But after a few listens you can hear little things going on in the background. Dany is really good at this. She plays subtle but interesting things on guitar beneath the vocals. Pau always seems to play exactly what's right for the song but always has really good drum fills and wisely chooses where to put them. Ale holds it all together with her bass.

 

Error and QOTMS are definitely my favorite albums from them. Error was recorded during the pandemic so they really had some time to work with the songs and get everything perfect. They didn't have that luxury with Keep Me Fed though as they recorded the album last year between touring as the record label put a tight timeframe on when they wanted it released. Lyrically, the album suffered a little bit because of that when compared to Error. The lyrics are more honest and to the point on KMF. Musically they're doing a lot of new things on the album but due to the pace that they had to record it, all of the songs are pretty short and some of them follow the same formula. Still a good, hard rocking and catchy album.

 

Ok, informative fanboy post over 😄
