I'll definitely be checking their entire catalog. Enjoying this too much at the moment to leave it, though.

You've been missing out on these guys Sowing. Think you'll enjoy their whole catalog, Stage Four especially.

Is Survived By is my fave but Stage Four is definitely their strongest (especially emotionally) and probs the one to have at the top of your priority list



and don't forget to check the split they did with La Dispute. best 9 minute release you'll ever experience

yep



I can causally listen to most of their discography but Stage Four straight up makes me cry. It’s just brutal.

Wildcard, I feel you on Stage Four. Always makes me think of my dad who passed in ways I'd rather not.

Sorry to hear that becky. Hopefully the album can offer you some solace that you're not alone in experiencing that pain.

That’s why I really think of Stage Four and Lament as like sister albums.



One is the grief, the anger, the yelling at god kind of thing, the other is acceptance and trying to move on.



“But that’s the way it goes

I’ve healed more than suffered

I found the patience for jazz

I still love the Coen Brothers”



Such a nerdy little thing but I found it so relatable. Jeremy really is such an amazing lyricist.

And I’m sorry too Becky, made me think of my grandma when it came out, makes me think of my dad now. I really just cannot listen to it anymore.



Anyone calling Stage Four overrated a few pages back is out of their fucking minds. It is straight up the most cathartic and devastating record I can think of.

Stage Four is most definitely not overrated but its also not in my top 3 TA.

ooh damn that’s a hot take

Idk to me it’s miles ahead of the rest of their shit. I love every record by these guys but Stage Four reigns supreme for me. I’ve always found Jeremy’s lyrics relatable, including Hesitation Wounds, but he really hit a new high there imo.

Like I cannot state this literally enough, if Benediction comes on shuffle I’m fucking crying.

No record has ever had that effect on me.

“Not surprising I put off the call

Socialized and put up a wall

Anything to prolong the chances

Before confirming she was really gone”



same here jay. Every single song on that record fucking destroys me.
