Anyone who is taking the time to read all five-hundred characters of this comment should stop wasting their time and just preview the album. In the time it would take you to read all five-hundred of these characters, you could listen to most, if not all of track four and/or eight. Unfortunately, they are both instrumental. As such, they aren't exactly representative of the entire album. So just imagine very nice vocals on top, and that's the gist of what to expect from the rest of the album 👌👌 acmochi
