I'll freely admit that Women/Viet Cong/Pre-Occupations/whatever didn't do much for me at the time and I even lived in Calgary when they were very much a thing (maybe I should revisit?) but this new album really is something special

It's hard to describe beyond being an eerie '60s slowdance genre pastiche, but it's done in a way that feels so spare and so tender and hollowed-out and *sustained* that it really connects for me. It just keeps hitting these dark parts of my mind in sweet, unsettling ways. Naked. Or voyeuristic. Or something up that dark metaphorical alleyway.

i'm sorry to admit i've cooled considerably on this since first listen. idk, maybe because it's super long? i'm afraid to listen to it a third time now

a lot of fun ideas here, and a super creative record, though.

This could be the best original album ever to be pushing 2 hrs in length

seems about right
Cindy Lee - Diamond Jubilee answers the question what if the most faded 50s girl group / post-punk band forgotten by history played a sock hop in the town from Blue Velvet & introduced the villagers to guitar tones & krautrock jams that would kill a Victorian child— Good Willsmith (@GoodWillsmith) April 5, 2024
