    i hate his style and how he doesn't know how to make sensible music. still has that pig-roast feel to it, but a terrible casual late-summer album. his lyricism still has some left to be desired, as does his music, his production, his mixing, his band, his album art...I could go on and on.

    ENOUGH! you're not even as good as Jimmy Buffet and that's really saying something. Get lost, please.

    Ok, where is my bed and where can I go to sleep? A sleeper of an album.

  1. The genre-blending charm and sweetness that made Brushfire Fairytales and On and On so nice doesn't change that much, but does it really have to change?
  2. The drifting chords and soft voice are still in place, only now Johnson's instinct for melody has sharpened alongside his ability to self-edit.
  3. There's a little reggae touch here, some mild folk there, but mostly Johnson just excels at creating gentle background music that sways like the waves and feels twice as cool.
