(ENG) The first album by singer-songwriter Matthew Sweet is actually a short demo. And this is clear. The quality is inevitably lo-fi, and the poverty in sound and arrangements weighs the listening. It's a monothematic work based on repetitive and skinny folk arpeggios that refer mainly to the darkest songs of Elliott Smith or Mark Kozelek: however, the elements that characterize the brand Boduf Songs, like the whispered lyrics, and the gloomy and hypnotic gait, are already being introduced.
