Of 6 AM's 8 tracks, 4 have Adam Scheflan on vocals and those're the weakest ones. They're all Black Keys swagger-lite slathered in production: James Bond strings, hiphop shuffles, backing oooos, organ flourishes - it's all too much. Fancy music for boring people.
The instrumentals get a little space to breathe without the crushing expectation of selling records, building exotica atmosphere and gentle momentum. But they're broken up terribly by all those vocal tracks; kills the record 2.5/5
