Still thanking Laura for being the first time I ever actually knew a trans person. Everything else before this lap was just vaguely hearing of the fact that being trans was a thing. Hearing this album as a teenager was like the first time I actually kinda understood the implications of what being trans actually felt like for some. And revisiting it years later as a trans adult is something else.

That's really cool to hear. My ex - who turned out to be a trans man - was really into this or at least the song Black Me Out. Now, he wasn't exactly a nice person, but also really troubled, so I don't want that experience to destroy my enjoyment of AM lol. Maybe I should listen to them for a while to make their music my own thing? Laura is such a good vocalist, it's shouldn't be hard for me

This album is always going to have a special place in my heart, as it was the record that gave me the courage to publicly come out as bi, as well as to start becoming an outspoken LGBTQ+ member/ally



The importance of Laura Jane Grace in the music world can't be understated :]

[3] I remember this coming out just as I was, and while I was dealing with the death of a close friend. Paralytic States, Unconditional Love, and Two Coffins were anthems through depression to me.

t/t is great in a statement-that-perfectly-met-its-moment way but also great in an elementally catchy punk song way. Black Me Out too

Black Me Out is so good. Simple, yet biting.

unfortunate as well bc imo shape shift was by far their weakest record and a very underwhelming note to leave off on

Really they were always a vehicle for Laura's songwriting, Im not too pressed about a hiatus (not least because of how inconsistent she's kinda always been, this notwithstanding)
