Reception

Heather Phares of AllMusic gave the album 3.5 stars out of 5, calling it "[Solex's] most straightforward, accessible collection of songs yet."[1] Zeth Lundy of PopMatters said, "Solex does not write orthodox songs or function as an acceptable DJ for your next house party."[2] He added, "The Laughing Stock of Indie Rock falls somewhere in between the two, a mash-up of thick, freaky beats and horn-rimmed bedroom indie rock."[2]

gollark: I have this here:```server.use((req, res, next) => { res.locals.flash = req.flash next()})```and res.locals contains that when I console.log it in the handler... but apparently my template doesn't have `flash` available?
gollark: On an unrelated note it appears that I do not understand express.js locals.
