6.0 / 10

Debut full-length from Michigan multi-instrumentalist is nostalgic, intimate, and sometimes maudlin, combining hazy lo-fi production with a whispered croon reminiscent of Elliott Smith.

Superficial as it can be to judge an album by its artwork, the shimmer and shadow on the cover of Benoît Pioulard's first full-length (and Kranky debut), Précis, aptly depicts the music inside.
