Happy 3rd birthday to this masterpiece of an album. Easily one of my all-time favorites and still hits just as hard today as it did when I first heard it.
This will unquestionably be one of my top 5 records of the decade. Can't believe I didn't even like it the first time I listened to it.
Hard to believe it's been three years since this came out. I don't enjoy it as much as Home, but this album is still tight and has some of their best songs
So many memories of that spring, and listening to this album. The weather was very warm for May(unlike now), and it was the perfect companion for this album.
Goodness, present and hallowed Is thanking walls of the shallow Embankments for flowing in over the Ranks of soldiering messes of Dayglow blades scorched by hovering halos Washing away until I don't even cringe at the thought of you
I never really fell for End of Reel like a lot of ppl have, I think it’s a good song still, and a solid closer, but it just never really went any deeper than that for me.
Nothing here beats Dendron or Among the Wildflowers but Soft Animal, Two Deliverances, You In This Light, all fantastic I could use a new album Fuck I just remembered how much Wildflowers sounds like The Weakerthans and now I’m ruined again
I know I’ll be in the minority but I really think, musically and lyrically, Home pales in comparison to this.
