Absolutely sounds like a constant fight against one’s self to to admit less about how they feel and in the end, Dijon will always lose the battle. Dijon’s voice is raspy and both instrumentals and production have peculiarly jagged edges. While haphazard on their own, combined they allow him to be vulnerable for his listeners or better yet, those who he wants to be listening. There is a constant undertone of a single muse, a single person that he is hopelessly devoted to. Whether or not it’s the same person throughout, Dijon has dedication to making desperation beautiful. Half the album is begging for either forgiveness or apologies, yet he does it with such grace and openness that you never feel pity, but only respect. Absolutely’s tracks are short, but even that tells a tale of its own. His songs are quick because his messages are simple and straightforward. Dijon is not confused about how he feels and he wants you to know. UPC: 093624876687
