    One word comes to mind, even after repeated listens: sterile.

    Songwriting? Sterile.
    Production? Sterile.
    Arrangements? Sterile.

    Listen to Wild Nothing instead.

    It's the gently chiming guitars, summery synth lines and Vallesteros' Beach Boy melodies that dominate. [Sep 2014, p.71]

    The messy trip-hop of 'If I Could' and screeching synth line of 'First Snow' mean Nausea lacks consistency, but it's a clever and rewarding record.

    The production on Nausea remains consistently strong, even as songs progress, fade, and expand within themselves.
