Oso Oso - Basking in the Glow (August 16, 2019) Album • Page 10

I’d say that this thing is going to be pretty much untouchable for me as far as AOTY goes but we still have Jimmy Eat World coming in October so we’ll have to wait and see

 

Last song definitely has big time brand new vibes. Mike sapone was a great choice for this.

 

Mike Sapone is a great choice for anything

 

the emo torch has been handed over Ant, accept it

 

Heavy STD vibes all over this. Good shit

 

You can’t make me

 

id like to report after the first listen that it's good as hell.

i think Intro and Priority Change stuck out the most as like HELL YEAH and of course I love Impossible Game still. excited to listen to it more.

 

This is soooo good. Some friends of mine booked them to their venue/rehearsal space (cap 80-100) in October. I have a feeling that it's gonna be PACKED!

 

Well, this album blew my expectations and then some. I haver never clicked with Yunahon but I love Real Stories....so so much!
This album is everything I wanted and more. How good are The View and A Mornig Song!!

 

Title track feels like a cut off the mechanic

 

yes a lot of this reminds me of that record (or the more upbeat parts of the mother)

 

just started this, the view holy shit wow

 

just threw this on and the title track is so STD, I love it.

 

The Early November, Saves the Day, North Star, all feel like influences on here along with it sounding fresh and like its own work. I think the lyrics are really solid as well! very good album, going to be in rotation for a long time.

 

gonna cry if they don’t play charlie at the gig; gonna cry if they do

 

I get incredibly heavy Ben Jorgensen vibes from this. Definitely Early November too.

 

This is cool! I didn’t listen to the singles, so dig and impossible game were huge standouts along with Charlie and a morning song

 

he's gonna blow up isn't he. so awesome !

 

Check out Mia’s great review here!

 

the progression from yunahon to basking in the glow kinda reminds me of the progression charly bliss made from guppy to young enough.

 

Everything about this makes me so happy

 

a morning song

 

I think part of the reason I love this band so much is that they’ve bypassed so many of the conventions (and limitations) of their contemporaries/the most recent waves of emo, and they sound more aligned with the best aspects of the third wave. Namely, dude can write a hook and isn’t afraid to do so.

 

Exactly that. Feel like a lot of the more recent "emo" bands are sprinting laps around eachother trying to fit in as many wacky riffs or overblown dramatic crescendos as possible to stand out. Finding an artist like Jade who's solely focused on writing good, catchy songs is refreshing. And then when he does dip his feet into more explorative stuff like Charlie, it feels even more rewarding
