one of my teenage favorites released a really layered beach boys-esque album, certainly a far cry from their punk days, but I like that they decided to do new things with their music!

oh man this is Controversial for people who were into emo music in like 2019/2020 (essay on the trials and tribulations of Fourth/Fifth Wave emo forthcoming), but what a cool band. dropping one of the all time modern classic angsty records "Greatest Hits", and then, though not without controversy, trying to craft a really unique power pop song. their new stuff? Not as good as "Greatest Hits" and the Title Fight-y stuff they have since tried to remove, but I like that they have a vision for songwriting! Also, Minnesota music! It's great!

def a special case since this is the band I used to manage, but this album was part of a huge turning point in my life. the band is a few friends I went to college with and ended up moving in with my junior year. I knew them from their early days playing shows around NYC and slowly adding new songs to the set list, and by the time we lived together they had the whole album written. I was basically the Frankie Jonas to their Jonas Brothers until they decided they wanted to finally put their years of work out into the world and asked me to be their manager. working with them was my first experience in that kind of role and led to me pursuing it as a career, which I’m currently in grad school for.
genuinely love this album musically tho, it’s rough around the edges as it was produced before and during the pandemic and was a mishmash of studio recording and DIY stuff we threw together in our living room, but I think it adds to the charm. if you’re into indie rock with emo lyrics and noisy shoegazy type guitars def give it a listen. the songwriting is super personal to the vocalist and knowing her life outside of the album and what went into the songs makes it that much more meaningful.
every time I listen to this album it takes me back to having just graduated, not knowing what I was doing with my life, but knowing that I got so much fulfillment out of putting music into the world and unknowingly stumbling into figuring out what I did want to do with my life. wouldn’t be where I am now had I not been a part of making this album happen

so much to talk about, the sunglasses, the scarf, the fresh baguette and coffee, the always lovely cafe setting. I think this is the most swag ever captured on camera I aspire to be at this level
