Verdict: Hard to feel through the polish.
I listened to hi from me on headphones first — that is where Wet Leg actually lives.
I am still thinking about one held note near the end — how it thinned, how it stayed, how it left a little warmth in the room.
Gentle score only — 5.4/10. Hard to feel through the polish.

Verdict: Concept heavier than the song.
I went in cold on hi from me. Came out thinking it is half a song wearing a concept.
I respect the ambition more than the execution. The middle eight is a shrug. Still, the atmosphere is honest.
4.6/10. Concept heavier than the song.

the comments saying ‘not dark enough’ are wild. it’s soft-dark. that’s the point.

Verdict: Hard to keep in the weekly queue.
okay, hi from me just rearranged my queue without asking — Wet Leg knew exactly what temperature this needed.
I keep thinking about who else this sits beside — honestly a soft Chelsea Wolfe shadow is the neighbor that makes the most sense.
that is a warm yes from me — 5.1/10. Hard to keep in the weekly queue.
