It’s almost winter in the PNW again and I find myself coming back to this record in a big way as the rain settles in

Good Facebook buddies with Keith and he’s agreed to do a retrospective interview for the 10 year anniversary of this, get at me if y’all have any specific questions you want me to ask him!

I used to love this but recently when I played it it just sounded like your typical emo to me. Still love the last track, but the nasally vocals actually drive me nuts now.

The Anna Flyaway song wasn't bad, I liked the production but I don't think I really need to hear the rest of the album honestly. I used to really like E!E! but it's pretty much more of the same which is fine but I could take it or leave it at this point.

Damn, this is really good. Had never heard of these guys until sputnik.



Strongest tracks for me are How to Make Love Stay, Keep What You Have Built Up Here and the closer.

They will all grow on you tbh, that's what I've found over the years

This is really, really growing. Bumped to 4.5. Might even go to 5. Oddly soothing album. It Happened Because You Left is jaw droppingly good. Why had I never heard of these guys (this guy?).



Is their other LP even worth checking? Got a really low score. Which EPs should I check out?
