Although they released a split EP several years later, this self-titled album is the duo’s first collaborative project, with both musicians sharing lead vocals and songwriting duties. The track list is split in half: Devine contributes five new tunes, most of them acoustic, introspective, indie folk ballads in the vein of Elliott Smith; and Hull offers an equal amount of noisy, messy pop\/rock in return. Although they play on each other’s material, the two don’t carve out a unique sound as much as adapt to each other’s style, and this disc often sounds like another split EP as opposed to a conflation of talents. On album highlights like “Holding Down the Laughter,” though, Hull and Devine find a common groove, mixing cheesy ‘70s keyboards and lo-fi charm with earnest, summery pop hooks. ~ Andrew Leahey\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTracklisting:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.How This All Ends\u003cbr\u003e2.The Easy Mark \u0026amp; the Old Maid\u003cbr\u003e3.Baby Shoes\u003cbr\u003e4.You're a Mirror I Cannot Avoid\u003cbr\u003e5.Holding Down the Laughter\u003cbr\u003e6.You Wouldn't Have to Ask\u003cbr\u003e7.I Begged You Everything\u003cbr\u003e8.Please Move\u003cbr\u003e9.Mesa, Az\u003cbr\u003e10.Texas\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Miscellaneous Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47685771985185,"sku":"843563153642","price":37.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/843563153642.jpg?v=1702963384","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/es-es\/products\/843563153642","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
