bro it was so frustrating, at least the first half year or so after Endless dropped the majority of ppl was still like "he just dropped some demos to get out of his contract", completely dismissing it.
most critics either ignored or dismissed it too. only very slowly did ppl come back around to it and recognize it's a masterpiece too, but I really only think it became the consensus after the vinyl came out 2 years later
Ppl here still think it doesn't hold a candle to blonde. Hilarious
