Feb 12th, 2016Feeling strongly that I do not get the whole 'slacker' branding bit, and that thought's coming from a man that used to live in the back of his 1968 Ford F-150. But I did learn to love Linne Calodo from a snooty friend, and so here I am. I'll say that this is my favorite of the 2012 bunch (Nemesis, Outsider, et al. included). Rich. Spice and sting. There is fruit here, but no bubblicious berry blasts; there's brightness along side a deep and dry astringent bit, and that juxtaposition may well drive you into dark fits of second-guessing and overthinking at a price-point well below your therapist's hourly rate.
