I fully endorse the concept of Christmas versions of existing tracks

― HYPERLINK TO RAP GENIUS (BradNelson)

Brad otm here. It may have taken me five years, but I just had a moment with Moth. The songs I dismissed are suddenly sounding glorious.

I burned through everything related to Caroline this past year, and Moth was the album that grew on me most (though Something is still my favorite Chairlift by a long way). Sure, the intro track is kinda nothing, and "Unfinished Business" grates, but the eight other tracks are great. "Ottawa to Osaka" got clowned upthread but I love it. Does You Inspire You is the album that really doesn't have the depth of the other two. underwritten, and not much to recommend it past "Bruises"

Caroline's cover of The Corrs' "Breathless" is probably unnecessary but pretty lolsy.

i think it's kinda brilliant honestly

I like it a lot but I have no idea how long I will feel that way.

there's an of Montreal song called "Bunny Is No Kind Of Rider". Are they referring to the same thing?

pretty nice song, I also thought of the Of Montreal song

the weirdest thing is that I had a super disturbing dream last night in which my nephew killed a baby rabbit in front of me and then I woke up to see this... https://t.co/0DEYS0xJsu

Request to change title to Chairlift / Caroline Polachek was trying to post the new song but couldn’t find a Polachek thread and forgot this existed

real ray of light vibes here

not her catchiest song, but a fun video, would like some of that glassware

I love this

I think she deserves a solo thread now.

She’s at the top of her game, not sure it will be as good as Pang but it definitely has potential.

Ooh I like this one. The b-section was unexpected, deflating the build, but then that wonderful coda pays off that tension later. Love the production

Vinnie, Thursday, 10 February 2022 00:07 (two years ago) link

Yeah second time listening to these and loving the 90’d vibe
