    beautiful
     
  10. this is exactly what I wanted from them — it adds a little tension and edge to their sound without losing the beauty. the opener floored me

    Release My Mind, My Garden Grows

    Caught them tn on tour and they exceeded any expectations I had. Was a tiny crowd in Portland but it was a treat to see them in such an intimate setting. selling this record too so I picked up a copy. Can’t wait to dive in to this.
     
  13. Damn this record is good

    Such a lovely record. Pretty different from Wishes to Fulfill in a good way.

    Loved this. Mudslide and The Dinner’s Spoon are early highlights. Really cool how different yet special this is from Wishes

    I didn’t even know this was coming out today. I am catching them on tour tonight so that’s kind of cool how I’ll be seeing them on album release day!

    Working through this now and Another Reindeer is an instant highlight. Really digging the whole thing though.

    listened to this last night, I think it’s at least really good (as is to be expected from them at this point), but it may need a few listens to really sink in— but I suspect further listens could reveal it to be something very special. there are a lot of really interesting little twists and turns throughout and the songs in general feel more expansive here. also couldn’t help but think it felt more like a winter album and that maybe it will click harder in the colder months, but idk.

    Never listened to this band before today, but I'm really digging this. Kind of reminds me of The Format mixed with REM.

    Also had wanted to say the opening track really reminded me of REM somehow, I'm glad somebody got the same connection, and I used to say the same thing about The Format with like half of their debut album, though the track "Big Pop" itself takes the cake

    The opening song on this is amazing. Everything else is good so far but that song is my favorite after one listen. Seeing them live in album release day was fun though, they played a handful of songs from this record and they all sounded really good!
