Summary
A review of matt proxy's album, highlighting tracks "God" and "Misery" as key demonstrations of the artist's individualism. The review describes "Misery" as having fuzzy, compressed production reminiscent of a Limewire bootleg, exploring personal failures and long-distance relationship struggles, before transitioning into an exultant, fist-pumping beat. "God" is described as equally triumphant, featuring never goodbye.
