Composition

May Jailer Birds Of A Feather Symbolism

Composed entirely of acoustic tracks, the album is devoid of the hip hopbeats, electronic tones, and experimental music found on Born to Die.[2][3][4] The vocals are 'granola-style'. Most of the album's songs have the same tempo.[5]

Critical reception

Idolator likened the Jailer album to Jewel's debut, Pieces of You.[2] Further, Idolator said: 'Though her vocals are often weak and shaky, her tone sounds delicate and sweet on all these simple tracks...[The] songs [are] written in her range, so she doesn't have to sing (and sing-talk) in her head voice and resort to that cutesy, flirty baby coo so prominent throughout Born To Die.'[2]Pop Crush reviewer Amy Sciarretto said she could imagine Del Rey singing the album's tracks in a coffeehouse. Calling the tracks themselves 'folky and fragile', Further, Sciarretto compared Del Rey's voice to that of a 'little bird', saying it was no wonder that songs called 'Birds of a Feather' and 'Aviation' appeared on the album.[5]
