after my fairly recent breakup this album hits some eerie notes in the deepest pits of my interior. in my opinion it's one of the strangest releases by warp records.

A very hauntingly beautiful album. I love to listen to this on the M train and watch the world pass by me.

i first heard this album shortly after getting broken up with by my first love. i wasn’t sleeping nor eating right. the somber tones, the dreamlike instrumentals, the cozy vocals, all really did this album in for me, especially as it’s about the trials and tribulations of heartache (loosely).
now, obviously, i just associate the album with the fall season and the leaves turning different colors. the darkness makes me only listen to this record in the second half of the year, but that doesn’t mean it’s not an all-time favorite for me

"Why would you make out of words a cage for your own bird?
When it sings so sweet
The screaming, heaving fuckery of the world?"
the crooner's sophomore outing, finding beauty and hope amidst the end of the world
loved unreal unearth, loved the debut. but if you ask me, this is his strongest album. there's something about the imagery invoked in this album that is so specific, but feels so unique to him. that underwater cover art kinda encompasses that; normally when we think of wastelands, its just dry nothingness for miles. but this feels very "noah's ark flood" end of the world. the calm before the storm, the storm, and the aftermath
the VOCALS on this thing go apeshit btw
this also just has some of my favorite songs of his. MOVEMENT is criminally slept on. shrike is so bittersweet and beautiful. dinner & diatribes and almost (sweet music) are absolute jams. talk...? TALK?!! jesus christ. i can't listen to the title track without weeping. there's such a melancholy that almost makes me sick but it's like...the hug you'd want from a loved one as the world caves in
good time😃! emotional damage😃! have fun😃!

i fucking LOVE mailing lists. you get vip information from the stuff you really care about, in a non-intrusive format, no ads, no scrolling, no bullshit. artists, labels, venues, educational centers, galleries, film centers, art collectives, clothing brands. anything you want to support/attend/take part of probably has a mailing list, i just look at my "promotions" tab in gmail once a day to glance over anything that could be interesting.
PRO TIP: unsubscribe from all of the things you don't care about, e.g. the uniqlo newsletter from that one time you bought some heattech undergarments and sold your soul (used your email) for a 10% discount.

i love the fact that no stock footage is used in this video and it looks STUNNING, and the music is original as well.
