This album is heavy at times with a charming lo-fi folk sound. Other tracks house a slight Black Moth influence, especially the opening track, &#8220;I Would Like To Say.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Most tracks on this album<em>\u00a0<\/em>fall\u00a0into the sweet folk category like &#8220;For Good Of No One&#8221; and &#8220;Dream Slew,&#8221; or a more blissful, watery synth category like on &#8220;Squares,&#8221; and the closing track, &#8220;Thorn Daydreams.&#8221; More electronic tracks such as\u00a0&#8220;Aries in Retrograde&#8221; are also present.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;She Will Come Again&#8221; and &#8220;Glass Garden&#8221; are hopefully honest. Released at the end of March, <em>Dorcas\u00a0<\/em>is\u00a0a pleasant spring or summer listen. Tracks like\u00a0&#8220;Sweets,&#8221; and &#8220;Seeling&#8221; are more traditional &#8216;rock&#8217; songs to be had on this 13-song release.
