Yeah this is great. Feels like this album could be a good mix of everything they have done so far based on these two singles. Something about this feels really pretty and well constructed. hyped.
I absolutely adore Summer Clothes. Maybe it’s the timing where it’s edging closer to summer weather, but this is exactly the song I needed.
Summer Clothes feels in a similar vein to It Must Get Lonely, which I thought was the one of the best songs off Sister Cities & a great direction for them
This is feeling like a little bit of an antidote to Sister Cities, which I know I am in need of. Sister Cities is bar none their best album to me, but it's also particularly an emotional experience for me that is unpleasant to relive by listening to it. Its' cathartic at times, but others it's just incredibly sad. I am loving the feelings so far of these 2 songs.
Really like this song. I don’t know where Soupy’s referring to exactly, but the lyrics about the beach, the ferris wheel, and the parkway make me think of Atlantic City, where I just was for the first time last week, so this one’s hitting extra for me right now haha
i like but not love the song, and similar feels for the first one. not quite hitting like it used to for me so far, but still looking forward to the album. release the details already! edit: the bit about the astronaut reminds me of really early TWY (Wouldn't it be cool if we were astronauts?)
I wasn't a huge fan of the song but I did notice that I liked the production. Not surprising it's Yip, I like his stuff pretty consistently across the board.
After a couple of listens, I think I like this one better than Oldest Daughter (although that has really grown on me as well). Definitely a different direction than I expected them to take and an unusual second single (at least for their standards), but it is a very beautiful song
Not really into this, I'm sure it'll work in context with the album but seems like an odd choice for a single Hope there isn't a long rollout when they announce the album since we'll already have at least 3 songs by then
They still haven't updated their Twitter bio and banner, they both still reference Oldest Daughter. They also haven't tweeted about Summer Clothes being "out now" or anything like that.
Officially I don't think they're saying anything until noon. Dan had a countdown on his Instagram story for noon today. I think if there's an album announcement with the single it happens at noon today probably?
Seems extreme even for Hopeless to do another single before album announcement... But to be fair idk if either of these are true singles? I would think if they're going to drop the album announcement, there would be a more massive single along with it. This one didn't even get Radio 104.5 premiere in Philly so idk
