| Album Rating: C |
What feels worse to me than an album that is a straight up flop is an album that you love on first listen, but fails to withstand the test of time. The first handful of listens you fall head-over-heels in love with it, and after that it starts to turn sour and you only revisit it every so often. Such is the story of Dinosaur Feather's 2010 debut,
Fantasy Memorial and I. The poppier take on
Sung Tongs-era Animal Collective on tracks such as "Family Waves," "Teenage Whore" and "Fantasy Memorial," grabbed my heart and didn't let go until I listened to the album enough times. After that, the record wasn't nearly as good as a listen as it used to be, although it still remained as one of my favorite albums of that year.
