dude yyyyyyyyyeeeeeeeeeesssssssssss the ambient parts kill me just as much as the actual music

they're so ethereal and sad but also so creepy in a way, it's really hard to explain

Fourth of July was almost too much. To bad i'm not much a crier(at least not easily)

Re-listening to this now: bliss. May just say fuck it and go on a 5ing sesh today - this, Crazy on the Weekend and a couple of others look bump worthy

I don't cry much either, especially not until I've known something for a long time. Pretty sure I've teared up to this before.

Honestly a good cry to music is can be really cathartic.

Can't remember crying to music ever personally, though I know I've gotten close with this

omg every time i think "Ok ... this is going to be the track that isn't a 5/5" the song changes up and i'm like 'Oh shit waddup'

Carrie and Lowell might have one of the most beautiful progressions

@Asleep: I really dislike that line of thinking but fair enough. I surprisingly never cried to this.

I like being stingy with ratings

It helps people understand better just how greatly my fandom of something differs.

@Calc How come? If an album is basically subjectively perfect for me thats a 4.5. If its something I've listened to for years and developed some sort of unquantifiable bound to (but I sure as hell know it when I feel it) then it goes up to a 5. Works for me, gives a 5 that special quality

I've never cried to this (or any music, I think) but I can literally feel my heart sink every time I listen to this. It's downright depressing.

There are probably only like 20 albums that have made me tear up, it's not exactly a common thing.

I started to lose it at a fucking Drive-By Truckers concert a few weeks ago lol

It's depressing but Fourth of July also has a slight comfort to it

I can appreciate this. For my entire first year on this site I only had one 4.5 (TDAG) and only a handful of 4's. My perception at the time was that no album is perfect, and until I find maybe that 1 album (or 2 tops) in my entire life, I'd hand them a 5.

Then I lightened up, of course.
