Mount Eerie - A Crow Looked At Me (March 24, 2017) Album • Page 7

But I'm not trying to contribute to the hurricane flooding with my tears :(

 

what was everyone frequency of revisiting this record?

ive only listened to it a few times.

 

I listened to it a lot when it came out, I've slowed down since then, but I listened again last week. It's a heavy, emotional record, but honestly it's very easy for me to listen to, especially after hearing his interview on WTF. It's more a love letter, than anything else I feel.

 

gah, i still need to listen to that podcast

@Bloodsucker II also i agree with your point on it being a love letter. i want to try and listen to it more.

 

Saw you two talking about this in Science Fiction thread and nearly bawled at the first few songs.

Going to listen to it in full, and give the attention it deserves another day. I'd never heard of Phil or any of these projects before but I'm really intrigued to read all the pieces about it - reading Pitchfork and Noisey just now.

 

Awesome! It's weird to say "enjoy" this album but I hope you just...experience it I guess. His interview with Marc Maron on his WTF! podcast is great

 

please please please listen to the glow pt 2

 

And Clear Moon

 

Yep Glow Pt 2 and Clear Moon are Phils best work imo

 

I'd kill to hear The Glow Pt. 2 for the first time again

 

The first time I heard it I did not get it at all. Then like 6 months after that initial listen I just thought "I need to listen to that one more time", and then I did... I remember thinking "how did I not realize this is one of the best albums ever????"


Once it clicked I couldn't listen to anything else for months

 

It took me awhile to warm up to everything after Headless Horseman. But "I Want Wind To Blow" fucked me up the very first time I heard it. It actually scared me haha. The way it transitions into the title track is brilliant. The only transition I would put above it is "Perth" into "Minnesota, Wi" from Bon Iver, Bon Iver

 

I listened this morning. This album reminds me of Laura Marling with an indie/emo type vocal. I know that might be well off but it reminds me of something specific and cant quite place it.

The album is really rich and written wonderfully. The songs are so well put together and everything is really great. I don't think it's something I'll listen to often but Phil definitely put me in a place alongside him and his daughter, as if you're a ghost spectator in his house.

I think I'd say this is a very human album. It's rich in emotion and you share in his pain.

 

I’m getting a lot better at listening to this album more casually

 

My favourite album of the past year by far - Still find it hard to dip into individual tracks, always have to sit down and listen to the whole thing

 

So many of Phil’s tracks feel like lullabies to me. I almost can’t articulate it, but tracks like The Place I Live and Ancient Questions just make me feel at peace with...everything

 

Just found out about this.

This is album is breaking me :(

 

pretty easily my aoty. took me forever to listen to it but so much of it connects with personal life experiences the last year. incredible. have always loved phil but it seems pretty clearly his career-apex

 

i haven't listened to this nearly as much as many other albums this year but it's still my aoty

 

I've never heard anything by him or any of his bands.

Listened to half of the first song and immediately ordered it on vinyl.

 

y'all gotta listen to the glow

 

ftfy

 

jesus

 

This is 3-way tied right now for my album of the year. I need to sort that out soon
