"It's really solid overall but the run of songs from Emerald to Clearin is a bit of a drop off for me"



idk man the way Emerald builds up to that "I THINK WE'D BEST GET BACK WEST" bit >>>>

Cymbals Eat Guitars were so good. Their four albums stand as some of the best indie rock of the past decade.

Yeah this is a quality find Row, and I say that as someone who's never listened to any of Cymbals' work.

"Becca" is such a great little pop tune - the whistling melody disarms me

I love Becca because it was my upbeat toe-tapper of the year until I read the lyrics, and now it creeps me out so much

"Ultrasound" as a single, it made me be ready for an energic one. hahaa,

The album is really great, subtle, layered, varied yet coherent. thanks for lettting me find it.

I really adore the emotional cushioning and power pushing in "Untitled", just great.

Planning on giving this a real listen with the lyrics tonight. First few listens have already been wonderful

Row the lyrics are part of that song's draw imo - their morbidity contrasts so well with the sugary musical backing

oh absolutely 100% with you. it shot into my top 5 here because the contrast between the borderline-Nick Cave lyrics and the music is so good. I just love what a trojan horse that song is, there's some Cymbals songs with a similar thing but he never pulled it off as well

This getting better with every listen. "Marian" is perfect. Still planning a deeper dive into the lyrics.

Ultrasound sounds like a lighter Desaparecidos song to me. Good album, hooked on first listen.
