Yeah it almost feels like dreampop at times. Love it.

It’s a shame this has been reduced to a joke song by movies and television, because if you earnestly sit with the whole thing it’s actually really beautiful.

David Foster Wallace wasn’t kidding about corporations using irony carelessly

Also shout out Eric Carmen for sort of kickstarting power pop as a genre with the Raspberries. He’s like “miss me with that prog s***, I’m all about jamming with them Beatles harmonies”.

What about The Magnet Fields ?

Probably one of my 50 favorite songs ever

def my 2nd fav album of hers after Moon Pix, the triple punch of the intro into Free into this track is just f***ing phenomenal the album ends super strong too

Revisited Portishead’s Third. Really love the direction they went in and wish they kept developing it, but I do still think that I ultimately prefer the first 2. But really it’s a killer “trilogy” of albums and they can shift around with my mood.

Beth

Big flex that Kendrick just casually got a Beth Gibbons feature

Forgot how good Magic Doors was. The longer tracks are great too, but I do love some of the shorter gems. Even that little acoustic gem.

Those pants look comfy as hell

I need to peep Portishead sometime. Trip hop is a major blind spot for me

oooh they are bro, prolly the comfiest i’ve got not tryna keep plugging the brand but they’re Story MFG peace pants

same. i know i’ve listened to Dummy and enjoyed it, but i don’t think i can remember a song at this point

@drjdeponytail relistening to absib debut for the first time since Passenger dropped two classics

Shannon got way better at singing tho imo

Listened to The Hissing of Summer Lawns by Joni Mitchell and other than Blue this is definitely my favorite from her. Really great arrangements. Easy autumn time listening. This one in particular really stood out to me.

Wandering Star goes so hard. Listen to that.

I dig her raw vocals on the debut, but yeah she really improved her range. I’ll probably be listening to the band heavy through the winter

This mashup is cool as hell
