Pianos Become The Teeth - Wait For Love (February 16, 2018) Album • Page 64

will do when I finish the album

 

good God I just realized that it's called "Fake Lighting" and not "Fake Lightning"

send help

 

Album is good. Not blown away. But I can see it blowing me away the more I dive into it. Sounds like one of those albums that "one month from now" me is going to love, and then "one month from now" me is going to wonder why "one month earlier" me didn't love it in the first place. Or maybe it'll just take a week to fall in love. Or maybe this album is just "good" and I won't fall in love. I guess I'll just have to wait.

 

This line from the Pitchfork review is spot on imo: “...But the grays in their funereal ambience are now polished silver and the fog has lifted”

Whereas previous PBTT albums were anguished, agonized, mournful, this album is wistful but also life-affirming. It’s a way through the grief, and I think that’s what has most drawn me in. As I’ve previously stated when discussing the appeal of Goodness for me, as I get older and life gets harder I find myself seeking out music with hope in it, music that acknowledges things are tough but also charts a path through the gloom. I think this album really nails that. PBTT’s art has taken us on one hell of an emotional journey. It’s nice to have made it to the other side with them.

 

knew Ian would write a really great review for this album - really reiterates a lot of thoughts I have on it.

excited to read AJ's review on the site

 

Did you also think it was "Bloody Sweat" too

 

Do I put this on in the office or save my first listen and take a late night drive after my girlfriend leaves this evening?

 

Also Ian's review is fantastic and only made me more hyped.

 

Are the official lyrics up anywhere yet?

 

I should have them in a few minutes, alresdy seen the postman.

 

Oh no he didn’t bring it lol

 

Anyone getting 'the national' vibe from this? Especially their last two albums, not necessarily sonically but something about it reminds me of their last two albums.

 

here you go boys. click for full image.

 

Still haven’t had a chance to listen to this yet. I’ve heard Charisma once and that’s it. I’m hoping to have time tomorrow to give it a few spins.

 

Sweet!

 

Love On Repeat is definitely my favorite from this.

 

Yeah I'm probably going to have to concur on that one. Not close, either.

 

oh god I just read the last line in Blue and I almost broke the fuck down

 

Yeah kyles always been a pretty unreal songwriter but I think blue might be his best lyrics ever

 

yeah but that's not ok I haven't cried in 3 years lol

I had the lyrics I posted above open in preview and I cmd-Q'd out of shock when I realized what was happening

 

thats what I thought it was but didn't want to be an idiot and mishear it ha. yea that hits soo hard everytime. the albums fantastic. I feel like we don't get records like this often where every song feels right in its place, trying to cherish this.

 

First listen this morning was good, but it was at the gym lol.

Stoked to give it some more time and proper speakers.

 

LOL dem depression pumps

 

I haven't paid attention to the lyrics on this yet

 

I really hope the Kings Road black and gold press isn't delayed too long... Half-debating buying a regular one just to have a physical copy in a reasonable amount of time :/ I just want the lyrics to all of the songs, man.


Edit: Never mind, saving my money. @mescalineeyes you rock!
