also, I reached out to Joe about a question about an order and he's the nicest person every time ive engaged with him.
this is a wild comparison that makes me appreciate the album even more than I already did. can't stop listening to this thing
well, this got me to listen to my first full SKM album so thank you. great comparison tbh and also loving this record so far.
Kozelek can be a dumbass, but this is my favorite album of all-time btw! Glad to see someone else enjoy it for the first time!
@nohandstoholdonto def give Red House Painters' Old Ramon a listen if you enjoy Ghosts of the Great Highway. My favorite RHP release and two halves of a whole in my mind.
I feel compelled to clarify that just because I said I think I can see why it might drag for some people doesn’t mean I agree - this is my favorite album of the year so far and it’s one of those albums I feel like I’ve been waiting for for years.
can y'all even imagine if we still had the release date as 4/24? lotta bad things about this situation we're in, arguably nothing but, but getting this early isn't one of them bc i feel like putting this on is the what i look forward to doing the most on most days. not to be hyperbolic or too sincere on main but this is the kind of record that makes me believe in art and remember what it's possible to feel when you really connect with something and aren't just consuming for the sake of it. i feel like every listen is more and more rewarding for me and i really love this a lot :)
Silly, but I play it every Friday after my 4 pm meeting because it makes me happy and signifies that the weekend is here! Makes me wanna dance around the kitchen.
