We got the blizzardish conditions yesterday and it's bitter cold today and for the next week. Will need to check this out.
Yeah, I think the real-feel here right now is like, 3. Lots of snow already, and more still coming down. Guess I'm hunkering down and not going anywhere for a few days...
Wow, I feel super different! Tracks 2 and 3 alone are massive standouts to me. I wasn't initially a huge fan of the title track as a single, but it definitely fell into place for me kicking off the album after hearing the rest and knowing more about the story.
This is really really pretty. Not necessarily knocking me on my ass, but it’s enjoyable as hell and something I can see myself returning to a lot. Careful Kid and Devotion were both very good
I just want to throw that bluesy piano line on "Waiting On Me To Change" on loop forever. Stereogum has a great track-by-track interview out today! The Story Behind Every Song On The Staves' New Album 'Good Woman'
The full version works great on the album, but they also put out the original stripped demo on DSPs about a year ago and it has a really lived-in feel that I love.
“Paralysed” is really hitting me today. The way it goes from lofi field recording to hifi soundscape at the 2:16 mark is such a wonderful Dorothy-in-full-color moment, especially in headphones. It literally feels good in headphones.
This has become one of my favorite albums this year so far. To be fair, there haven't been a ton of releases, but this album's great
