One of the things I like about this new stuff are the Wilsonesque qualities. It's stripped down in a Smiley Smile-manner; maybe it is indeed a reaction to the accusations about overproduction that people have often thrown at Lindsey (just like Wilson reacted to the failure of Smile by stripping it all down and even ruining the potential of some of the tracks).
Plus there's something really endearing and charmingly naive about a guy singing cliched lyrics about his kids; a sign of the oncoming dementia perhaps. Pretty similar to what Wilson's songs turned into at one point.
I'm hoping for the so-far-unheard three tracks to be full of overproduction, just for diversity's sake. It's unlikely because it's supposed to be acoustic, but anyway.
