Alright, I've got a bunch of FLAC files. What's a solid Android app that'll let me play them offline without compressing them to oblivion? Gotta keep those bitrates high!

Okay, so I've been on the hunt for an Android music player that doesn't butcher my lossless audio files. I'm talking FLAC, baby! The last thing I want is some app re-encoding my precious tunes into low-bitrate MP3s. MusiChic-Offline Music Player seems like a contender. It's strictly offline, which is a plus – I hate apps that constantly phone home. If it can handle FLAC playback without hiccups or downsampling, then we're talking. The UI better not be garbage, though. I need something clean, not some cluttered mess that looks like it was designed in the early 2000s. Bonus points if it's got decent playlist management. I'm not expecting it to be Roon, but, you know, functional. And PLEASE let me sort by album artist. If this app can do all that, then it's a win in my book. I'll run some frequency analysis on the output to be sure.
