I have been out of the loop on this guy forever and until just this minute thought he looked like King Krule

@TRiLLA ok so ive listened to the "self titled album" some times and tbh the tracklisting of the 3 songs ep is superior for that group of songs imo.

i love starting with unabomber I. the idea of bookending with both is cool, but to me its a no brainer suzuki rhythm is a better closer.

all in all i'd love to try to make the flight to copenhagen but i can only fly weekends rn bc of work. taking 2 days off for a niche internet concert is a little od as much as i'd love the trip.

i've joked with a friend that if these guys have the same upward momentum as bar italia had talent wise, they'll be bigger than taylor swift. hyperbole but i think with the right label signing like bar italia with matador, they could be a bigger act, they've already started out sm stronger and i think there's def a lane in the streaming world for them to tap into.

i'd love for them to stay as obscure internet act that makes blurry emotional ballads, but there's really strong writing here, a bit more mature than bar italia, that i find heartbreakingly beautiful.

they just are a bit too dependent on loops for rn. if they can mix the records the same but go for more ambitious arrangments they can easily make one of the best records of the year in my eyes

i hate that the show is on thursday so much .

would probably go if it was on the weekend or even friday. got first week of school though and i kinda gotta be there. missed out on the first two days the last time and my class schedule was f***ed up for the whole rest of the semester lol so i’m not risking that again…. even though seeing the first show live is very tempting.

other than that love the write-up, heavily agree esp with that point you made abt the writing and i’m excited for what the future holds for the crying nudes as well
