Sounds like you're on the right track with all that tbh - hopefully you'll leave a little room for the mesmeric passages like at the end of 'Sunday's Cool' and 'Love, I Swear It' too. The layering is so well developed in those sections.

thank you! yes, there definitely will still be time for parts like those, they're some of the most satisfying to get together. there should be more of a live feeling, too, as we've got two more official band members and will hopefully be getting a real proper drummer too!

Well I remember my first listen and I liked everything I'd heard so far but then the end of 'Sunday's Cool' locked in and I was 100% sure the album was going to be for me. It clinched the deal, you always need deal clincher moments ;)



Real drummers need constant feeding and a lot of reassurance though

yeah that's true :/ we'll see if this one can go in a pot in the backyard and photosynthesise tbh. that'd be the most convenient option.

fun fact, you can hear my friends playing Lego Star Wars faintly in the background of the outro of SC. I was using my friend's piano and they accidentally made their game a little too loud but I kept it in cause it felt homely in a way

i personally identify as agnostic, but I'm not at all opposed to changing my mind in the future tbh. sorry, this meant to send as one message but for some reason split into two

glad there's still music like this, you and Julien Baker holding down the fort it seems. was gonna say David Bazan from Pedro the Lion but he's not religious anymore aha

woooooooooooooooooooooops

I'd still be down to talk about faith if you like. mine's just worn a little thin in light of my sexuality and some other things

right ofc, have a gay roommate who used to go to a presby church group with me but we both kinda fell out. he still identifies as a Christian and so do I but it's seemingly getting more and more difficult

'my friends playing Lego Star Wars faintly in the background' = 'The layering is so well developed'



I might be losing credibility here!

yeah its hard - I live with quite conservative Christian parents and its been very restrictive growing up so my view has been coloured somewhat

@Doofus - I mean, a layer is a layer, Lego Star Wars or not :') I did put a lot of work into that part regardless

my parents aren't too staunchly conservative but are very religious (lutheran). currently in college and it's been really confusing and interesting stacking up how I grew up against what a lot of my friends believe

yeah Con going to a majority non-Christian school was an eye-opener when I was younger. idk, I'm just really disillusioned
