BROTHER SISTER is goat. pale horses is SECOND. brother, sister though is the only tattoo i've ever considered getting.
Sure looked like a ranking to me. And may have just kicked off some proper hardcore ranking! Ha! This is the saddest thing I've read today. I'm sorry. I can't even imagine mewithoutYou tickets slipping my mind so work must truly be insane!
Pale Horses feels like it could be distilled into an EP to me. The Appendix is also really great in a way thats different to the rest of their work. The chanting on Hebrew Children and Fairfield are legitimately scary sounding.
BS is the best. Catch has some great songs but I feel like they use fade-ins and repetition/echoing too much
Foxes in any place other than #1 or maybe 2 is objectively incorrect there’s like science and studies than say you have an objective bad taste in music
Pale Horses > Ten Stories > It’s All Crazy > Brother, Sister > Catch For Us The Foxes > [A -> B] Life I genuinely think this band has gotten better with each release. And while I’m not surprised when people place the albums that came before It’s All Crazy above it, it genuinely shocks me how many people but anything above their two most recent albums. I think Pale Horses is a perfection of their sound on A-B and Foxes, and Ten Stories is a perfection of the varied sound of Brother, Sister. I also have complete confidence the next album will be there new best album. This band just has a good track record.
pale horses ten stories brother sister foxes --------below are records i pretty much never listen to all crazy ab
Typically my favorite MWY record is whichever of BS, Foxes, PH or TS I've listened to most recently. Just a consistent discography.
Ten Stories..... isnt an amazing album Its All Crazy is mad respectable in its uncompromising ways They are a ridiculously consistent band
Yeah, I don’t really like to rate them tbh. They are all fantastic in their own way. (Not a huge game of A-B as a whole but the rest of their discography....yes)
So theyve said the new album is supposed to be crazy with extra instruments like All Crazy and dark and possibly heavier like PH and AB respectively. No?
We should have a sweepstake on which animals and vegetables get a shout out. I'm going for possum and brussel sprouts.
I am grieved (yes, grieved) that more people here don't know (yes, know) that Brother, Sister is objectively (yes, objectively) the greatest album mewithoutYou has (yes, has) ever made. It's not a knock on their other stuff. If I've heard a record from ANY band that flows as intentionally and perfectly as B, S does I can't think of one right now. Pale Horses and Catch For Us the Foxes aren't far behind. Catch resonates with me more on a personal level (maybe more than Brother, Sister) but Pale Horses is so brilliant and dense. Their whole discography owns though.
I learned the other day that figs often have live wasp larvae maggot things in them. That has ruined them for me and put a small barrier between me and mwY. : \ #toofreegan4me
