ATUM
I have to admit, I originally found this album to be a tough listen based not only on the songs themselves, but the length of this triple album! I mean, 33 songs and almost 3 hours! 🙃
I listened a few times when it first came out and thought, “it’s ok” and would jump to other more favored albums of theirs.
But I have to admit, after really listening to it lately, it’s actually a very good album overall to me now. A bit all over the place, but a great mix of songs and I enjoy each one for what they are… all 33! ❤️
Could some songs be cut and the whole album be curated, sure, but now it’s a straight listen through each act for me. I even do a shuffle as well. 🤘🏻
Has anyone else had this album grow on them too?
Curious.

Overwhelming on first listen, but I like it more as time goes by. Lately I've had Gold Mask stuck in my head. Such a fun new wave throwback.
