Astronaut is good but so of its time, this one stared into the future

Green to Me's one of my favorite major key songs yea



idk dude they're both of their time, but then again I was listening to this one when the 90s were still freshly passed

Mmmhm that's defo fair, but I think this one innovated enough to still feel fresh while Astronaut is more about capturing a mood and point in time

this album put a lot of mileage on my cd player in the early 2000s. lately it's the epicenter of a 90s rock nostalgia boner and it still sounds as lush as ever.

Guy's vocals and melodies remind me of mark kozelek's work in red house painters

I feel this with Apollo and Dreamboat too. The rest not so much, but both bands have heavy rainy day vibes

Most likely, can see you vibing with Astronaut defs. This one is harder to call, but it's dense and beautiful and full of great riffs so well worth checking
