    the "come and live it down with me" to end an album is my favorite music moment in so long

    An inconsequential shift as the continents drift.

    I think I like “Ultrasound” a little more.

  9. Should I order the vinyl from Bandcamp if I want him to see the most amount of money?

    I’d never listened to this album before (or anything he’s done besides Benji) and it’s fantastic and see exactly what you meant.
     
  11. Damn that interview got me. Not to self-promote or be TMI or whatever but I relate so specifically to the circumstances of being rejected creatively and otherwise, having a breakdown, making a record about it, and getting medicated. The past year has been an absolute nightmare of a trip but I'm glad I'm still here making music and I'm so glad this album exists to parallel that experience
     
  12. Also idk who his old manager and booking agent were but what the fuck man, how dumb do you have to be to drop someone after they turn in one of the best records they've ever made
     
  13. my LP came today, never had this happen before!

    a burst and I'm awake now Supporter

    I have the same problem with this record that I had with Pretty Years which is that I love the first track so much I keep playing it over and over instead of listening to the rest of the album

    watching the kexp session videos for the pretty years era songs is bumming me out. on what ended up being their last tour they played a 21+ venue and i was still a few months away from 21 :// would've really dug these, joe's guitar playing on wish is really cool :(

    can't say I really had that with Pretty Years, I think the first half of that album is just fine but the second is some of his best work

    This is the first physical record I’ve bought in almost a year and I’m really glad I did
