    a burst and I'm awake now Supporter

    Yeah it’s weird, I think some younger bands have been citing them as an influence so that’s why they’re getting talked about more all of a sudden.

    but...there's still usually some sort of lineage of knowledge right? people older who might've known and talked about them more and more people would've found the retroactively? it's just so incredibly from nowhere

    I listened to Duster after Mark Richardson mentioned them on Twitter a while back, and I’ve been low-key obsessed with Stratosphere ever since. Haven’t even moved on from it yet, it’s so good

    they’re good but Bedhead crush them on that same style IMO

    this, from last year, is pretty crazy. kinda slow core/post-rock/ambient/idk, but it is real nice

    haha valid reasoning there. yeah, I went and looked at the OP and saw Carissa's Wierd and I don't know anyone else on here who also listens to them. that was the giveaway. I've never listened to him so I have a lot of stuff to dive into.

    haha, theres worse things to be known as than "the Carissas wierd guy." his discog is huge, but its all worth listening to. I think I remember everything is generally considered his opus/best starting point

    I guess it only tangentially hits this thread but I’ve been listening to double negative a lot lately and it’s really good. I never expected them to go in this direction
