@whatdotcd that LP may be the minimalist-progenitor twee manifesto pre the NYC late-2000s “hipster” bookshop-core groups. The Blow/YACHT deserve peak props.
@whatdotcd even w/o mentioning it being a cover, “Love Is A Deserter” could be played live myriad ways/by basically any 1-5-piece act—it would go every time
I formally retract all of the above—this level of inspired-prose profundity must b protected from Claude. I h8 it when I willingly look @ phone, & I hated it when the expected press wave ruined my seaside wedding + led 2 obvious shore swell bc my PRbff is the most famous American
(not wading in2 the topic @ hand @ all or contending the stance—)
I’ve done my best 2 never comment on this humanoid cornball amid all his unearned press-forward pretentiousness re: ~artistry~ or whatever
dude re-tracks Springst*en stems/writes ab Ferris wheel memories and shit
rest easily assured, autobiography man: there’s no ~way~ a machine could ever train these soul psalms—etched in parallel, preservation-worthy importance
—as worthy as those within the pyramids
(just having some fun. w/ this—you do you; s/o your agent)

Justice/Gesa the obvs main reference points—but transferring them + Bloody Beetroots (IT)/Crookers (IT)/Siriusmo (DE)/Simian Mobile Disco (UK)/MSTRKRFT (CA) in2 a US-Midwest-centered album w/ the same level of energy as those artists’ original 192 kbps MySpace mp3s is a real feat
the @slayyyter album is so directly/obviously best-yet (& probs forever-definitive) late-2000s/early-2010s era-indebted/-accurate modern update // 0 cloying re: overwrought allusions—just pure, studied French-electro energy // excellent album regardless of references // ~10/10
hell yeah:
