    I really really really want this to become the new site joke

    Also listening to tracklist in alphabetical order like god damn I aspire to be able to type something that funny.
     
  7. That’s a good idea gonna do that with the new Julien now. It’s for advanced listeners only. Don’t attempt.

    If you want to see how journalism is a machine that feeds on hype, look at how many people are writing about her out of nowhere. Her press team is probably awesome, but it's also like... whoa.

    Also lol that after Turn Off The Lights is Shadowboxing. Maybe she didn't mean to make the joke, but I think it's funny.

    Yeah, but she did that in 2015 too and I didn't see all these folks then.

    I create content for some of your favorite artists

    a song has never made me cry off the bat, but I have cried because of a song when in a certain headspace if that makes sense?

    and, you don't get goosebumps with the final "stay" on Claw? Damn man, cold
     
  13. I don't think Sprained Ankle was that good but it sure showed promise and built buzz.
     
  14. Out of nowhere? You know how hard so many people worked to make that happen and coordinate ...

    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ We disagree. I think it's a heartbreaking work of genius.
     
  16. Seriously.

    go on YouTube and just look how much Julien worked her ass off the last 2 years. She performed live EVERYWHERE and for EVERYBODY.
    This is no coincidence, this is pure elbow grease.

    Well that and this fucking incredible thing.
     
  17. Sorry man, by that good I mean relatively to the other releases that year (and compared to TOTL). I mean 2015 was just a stupid fucking year. So much stuff.

    Yeah, you're right. It's just honestly so astonishing. I think she's still with the dude she worked with at 6131, and obviously her last album being so incredible definitely helped build the heat.

    I guess it's just crazy because I'm literally getting people who love Julien say "I'm sick of seeing new articles about her" and I'm laughing because who the hell wouldn't wish for their favorite artists to have smart people interview and write about them.

    Like, do I wish more people wrote about Daisy in 2009? Sure, but I'm not mad to read a bunch of articles about Science Fiction.

    I mean, I was alive and loving Brand New then too. I'm not saying no one wrote anything, I'm saying it's not like now.
     
  23. and you don't remember all the incessant bitching and moaning? haha

    Well, yeah. But I'm not talking about fans, I'm talking about press. :)
