I listened to the leak and loved it. But that was like a month? ago. Due to laziness I’m just waiting for it to come onto streaming to really digest it!
So...yeah, the Stereogum piece made me crack. Going through my first listen now and holyshitttttt Please Don't Die.
ive gotta talk about how insane of a track hangout at the gallows is WHATS YOUR POLITICS, WHATS YOUR RELIH-IH-GIONNNNNN gets me every time
Friends, all my friends / Oh, I hope you're somewhere smilin' / Just know I think about you more kindly / Than I have ever been This...really eerily describes some guilt I feel about my friend who would have turned 29 this week. I'm about to curl in a ball on the floor.
Has anyone else received their Loser Edition vinyl yet, and if so, does your record say Test Pressing on it? Because my brother's does, but he can't tell if it's just stylized like that or legitimate:
Mr. Tillman, The Palace, and The Songwriter, are the only ones that did anything for me off this. But they're pretty great.
All these pointless benders With reptilian strangers Oh my god you're so naive You leave this world in a drunken heap Who'll make the arrangements, baby, them or me?
I only listened to the leak once last weekend and I can't stop thinking about The Songwriter. Such a simple idea but it's executed brilliantly. Get to drive down to Chicago this weekend to see Bon Iver with my best friends. Gonna blast this the whole way.
It’s letting me listen to please don’t die on iTunes even though it isn’t actually released yet. Dope.
