First listen.
Ooo. Nice. This first track "Anywhere" immediately hooked me. The choice in lyrical flow was so subtly different.
Oh nice. I think that's a steelpan in the background. At least it kind of sounds like one ("Lovestained")
Second listen.

2: "Anywhere"; "Jealous"; "Sunburn"; "D.T.M.", "Lovestained";
1: "Sentir";
0: None

Summary:
This album has such a great sound to it. And working in it's favor is its short length.

Made a quick choice between "Anywhere" and "Lovestained". Decided to pick "Lovestained". Not sure why. The background music for both tracks are similar ("Sentir" also has similar music).*

Overall Rating: 5.0/5
Favorite Song: "Lovestained"
*Apparently the general public would agree. "Lovestained" is Hope Tala's second most popular track on Spotify and "Anywhere" is her sixth most popular track on Spotify. Two other songs from the album make the top ten: "Jealous" at rank 8 and "D.T.M." at rank 9.

I was subsequently discussing this album and complimented it by saying that generally I focus on the lyrics but for this album I was able to just enjoy the sound of the words instead of the focusing on the words themselves.
