This album always brings me back to high school winter break. It’s dark and dreamy and wintry in a way I can’t exactly explain—you’ll just have to listen :-)
That feeling from finishing a day in high school and being autumn but still not winter. Like Vampire Weekend's S/T, Interpol, Deerhunter, The strokes..... Truly remembering what being 16/17s was like.... prob gonna make a playlist
or:
Astro Coast - Surfer Blood
Robbers and Cowards - Cold War Kids
We Are the 21st Century Ambassadors of Peace and Magic - Foxygen
too many to choose from ofc but these are deeply high school for me and also still rock
1 of 2 albums I can think of at the top of my mind that I listened to in its entirety. This takes me back to that summer in 2013 when I was listening to this album non-stop along w some indie songs I discovered thru 8tracks (I don’t know if anyone else will know this site, it was a gem). Also it was the time of my life I was just getting to know freedom from being able to travel solo and/or w friends or just discovering life. Akin to a coming-of-age movie. 😅 I don’t know if I make sense.
Linking a list from Substack of girlies selling all the classics: Tagalongs, Thin Mints, Trefoils. The smores cookies are like a keebler sandwich cookie with marshmallow—so good.
