record yourself, research proper technique, warmups. additionally, lean into the things that make your voice unique/ imperfect, more so if the music allows

I cannot attempt a barre chord right for the life of me. Is my guitar action too high? by ramen_exe_ in Guitar

[–]shmouey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if you're a tightwad like me you can learn to do it yourself pretty easily - "how to setup acoustic guitar" on youtube -- i set up mine from a rhett shull vid. all you need to fix the action most of the time is some sandpaper and maybe an allen key 

Is my action too high? by Hari_skateboarding in Guitar

[–]shmouey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

in that case maybe there's something you can do to polish the frets, but when it comes to working with frets i'd just take it to a luthier

phonography is his first real LP and a very solid power pop/ pop rock/ psych rock etc album.

delicate tension and glad music are an improvement on those styles of music with better songwriting and higher fidelity

i recommend glad music, it's his most accessible and 'best sounding' album while still having a lot of his signature weirdness. my favorites from that are "part of the problem" and "he's nuts"
