Copeland - Blushing (February 14, 2019) Album • Page 27

still processing everything from my listen last night. this is a special one on so many levels and layers.

 

i haven't been able to listen to anything else

 

Introduced my girlfriend to Copeland just months ago and she’s loving this record; probably the strongest reaction to them from her that I’ve seen

 

Not as strong as my reaction posts in here tho

 

fuckin "colorless," chills every time

 

feels weird to call something my new favorite copeland song but

 

oh man the intro to "Lay Here"

sounds like some sick NES rpg music

 

Is anyone else making music like this?

 

Skywriter is stunning

 

I was thinking about this this morning. I would love to fill my library with more albums that sound like this but couldn’t think of anything.

 

there is no music like this afaict

the closest neighbor for me would be like... the early 1975 eps

a lot of people i have recommended this to have said it reminds them of rhye but that is, imo, a very limited comparison

 

You gonna review this for anyone?

 

i haven't pitched it anywhere and it's extremely unlikely i'll write about it (i've already blown... all of my deadlines this year so far)

 

The end of Strange Flower is a moment that will stick with me forever. This band sure knows how to write music that moves you.

 

@Kevin360 enough buzz here yet for you to dive in on Friday?

 

Yeah, my biggest takeaway from my listen last night is that I’ve never heard anything that quite sounds like this.

 

It doesn’t reach the same heights in quality, but I think you could argue that Polyneso has sorta been exploring a similar sound? It’s more poppy tho.

 

a vibe I can relate to

 

speaking of blowing deadlines I am going to have this posted on the site on Wednesday

 

This. Exactly this.

 

I still haven't heard this album yet but I fucking love Rhye. Their album last year is incredibly gorgeous.

 

the end of strange flower jesus fuck

 

waltz on water is just otherworld beauty

 

So I emailed benchmark Merchandizing and they said we should be getting our records this week and that the rumors are incorrect about it being delayed...so yay?

 

okay a few repeated lyrical lines/imagery

Lying at your feet
or crumbling at your feet

I think I'm going crazy/am i crazy?

then later in the record "I know I may be crazy" (not exact lyrics)

just a few interesting repeated ideas I've noticed. Not really sure of their meaning yet.
