CAPTAIN JAZZ "CAPTAIN JAZZ" LP
"I don't know how old Captain Jazz is but considering the apparent maturity of something like Rivers Cuomo being TWENTY SIX when he made Pinkerton I honestly shudder at the very real possibility that someone over 16 made this. If they are 16, hey, good job. Keep it up. But I'm going to assume they aren't because, front to back, they really try to beat us over the head with how fucking serious and cool and trve emo it is while also being chill enough to be like yeah bro it's not you know all that deep it's ironic which you know I don't think they know what that means.
Again, assuming they aren't 16, being sarcastic but meaning the things you say isn't irony. You tend to learn this stuff in Junior English class. But being 16 is a trying time. You see what being 16 is like all the time on TV and then when you get there and see no actually Clone High was not a documentary and you would not be having adult escapades, you're bound to get a little distressed and angry as a result. And what better way to channel that release than through music? You've been doing it for a long time, but now you're serious. You used to be really ironic and silly but those were the old days of, two weeks ago, before you followed diet skramz & quahog_adjacent_emo on Instagram.
Now you're evolved. You're like, ironic, but you're really smart now. And so everyone loves you for it. You used to not know what you're doing, and now you do! But you still have a great sense of humor! The whipped cream on this fucking serious, fucking epic, and fucking cool and chill never taking itself too seriously album." - RateYourMusic User
