Welcome! I also include the additional singles, bsides and covers EP to that era adding to its excellence. Hope they release that Bad Actors HE bside to bandcamp still.
Ooof, my misunderstanding. Thanks! yeah that whole era was elevated by the surrounding releases it also always reminds me of los campesinos sad scenes as well but that’s just me
On The Impossible Past turns 10 today. Hard to describe what it’s meant to me over the years, my 20s would not have been the same without it.
2011 was such a watershed musical year for me, namely listening to so many new AP bands as I transitioned from high school into college and shifted from listening to primarily classic rock/90s alt to current stuff. MovMou, B&C, La Dispute, the Swellers, PBC, Title Fight, and others all released albums that just completely altered my musical landscape. OTIP was the final album that came as part of that trend, a couple months later than the rest, and it only fitting the best was saved for last.
OTIP is a very significant album for me and means so, so much. And yet, ATP is still my favorite by them.
OTIP and RW are still top tier for me. I know I'm in the minority but the latest two did nothing for me. I'd love a 10th anniversary tour
