I feel so alienated seeing how overlooked this album is. It should be as popular as idk the Caroline Polachek or Fever Ray albums because it’s as good if not better as those two.

I keep meaning to check it out

gorgeous record and agree that it deserves more love
I don't usually pay attention to lyrics but i love the little phrases that jump out at me from this - "these strangers aren't your friends", "hot dunes, an oasis"

I like those lyrics. It feels like it’s mirroring my current anxieties.
Both a song about impending global doom via global warming - which has been a major anxiety for me growing in a city with such drought that I suspect will turn into a desert in a matter of years - and growing out of the people and things that used to be fun for you. The only thing that has anchored me to my current city is friends and family and every passing year I feel like it’s not worth it anymore. But then “the world is a fuck” so it’s not like I feel there’s a better option out there.
It’s not sonically my favorite song in here - I think Dreamliner is the one I like the best atm - but the lyrics are probably the most relatable for me.

Good album! My favorites are "Astrology Poisoning" and "Hot Evening."

"Avalon Emerson & the Charm" reminds me of "Selena Gomez & the Scene" lol
― jaymc, Thursday, 25 May 2023 14:25 (eleven months ago) link
Wow, this is something.
"Entombed in Ice" is my arbitrary favourite right now. That quietly scatterbrained feeling
