Perth band Methyl Ethel's Oh Human Spectacle was a solid record, and a promising 2016 debut. But it also suggested they had plenty to prove if they were going to make an impression on the increasingly overcrowded area of psychedelic indie pop. Jake Webb showed himself to be a skilled writer of shimmering psych-pop, but his compositions didn't quite have the bombastic pomp of tracks like Tame Impala's "Elephant" or MGMT's "Electric Feel."
In comparison to the dreamy haze of their previous work, Everything Is Forgotten is filled with tracks that have an uptempo, sassy groove that was absent from their debut. Lead single "Ubu" is symptomatic of this shift in pace and atmosphere, and it's also an example of how Webb's voice has grown in authority. Overall the record sounds more immediate and present than their previous collection. In spite of the increased tendency toward a more upbeat musicality, the themes presented here appear to be darker. "No. 28" stands as one of the albums strongest tracks due to its captivating staccato chorus, but it also contains some of the more disturbing lyrics on the record: "I’m tearing at my skin/And with the melting flesh/Compound your pain." Webb returns to the topic of troubled relationships time and time again over the course of the record
