Welcome back to the Daily Spin, the series in which I review 365 albums during 2023.
Each album will be given a rating on a scale from 0 to 10. You can look at the entire set here. Additionally, you can check out a list of my favorite song from each album right here.

I am so tired of Peach Pit. It is a blessing that there are literally no more albums from them to review.
Here’s the thing. I’ve said my piece on this band twice now, and this album hasn’t changed anything. It’s the bridge between the other two sonically, and as such, feels like a mix of the two that hits the peaks of neither - and while it does similarly with the valleys, that doesn’t magically make it good music.
It’s late, I’m tired, and I’ve wasted enough time trying to come up with words to distinguish music that in no way demands distinction.
Rating: 7.2/10
Best Tracks: Black Licorice
Worst Tracks: Second Life with Emily
