they give it a 6/10 without having anything particularly negative to say about the album other than "too much polish" which is a bullshit complaint imo.

No, it's spot-on. The production is way too polished and busy for Bishop Allen's intimate tone. And the "give them more time" critique was spot-on as well. Justin and Christian are too smart not to learn from these mistakes...I think they'll put out a classic indie-pop album before all's said and done.
