Slex 11.13.24	I'ma check on principal and congratulations but yr album has a lotttt to live up to for me as it's close to being named after my favorite album of all time, your title is a reference to There Will Be Fireworks right?
artificialbox 11.13.24	https://interpersonalmusic.bandcamp.com/album/the-long-bright-dark im going in
artificialbox 11.13.24	damn I was not expecting the energy boost in the second track!! very into this so far.

LucretiaMyReflection 11.13.24	Slex- it is actually, not. But it is named after the first episode of the first season of True Detective. I need to check out the record you’re talking about now. I’m intrigued as hell.
LucretiaMyReflection 11.13.24	Artificialbox - thank you kindly! I forget about our bandcamp
Sunnyvale 11.13.24	Jamming now, pretty good stuff so far
LucretiaMyReflection 11.13.24	Hey thank you. That’s very kind. I’m thrilled anyone is willing to check it out.
GreyShadow 11.13.24	first thing I thought was TWBF as well haha, you should definitely check The Dark Dark Bright by them, it's in my top 5 of all time. I'll check this in a bit, congratz on the release!
LucretiaMyReflection 11.13.24	I plan on throwing The Dark, Dark Bright on in my headphones for my daily after work walk. Very stoked to check it out.
DungeonBoy 11.13.24	Nice! Commenting to rememeber to check later
LucretiaMyReflection 11.13.24	Really appreciate folks checking it out. Means a lot! We did a little tour in September and people seemed into the new stuff, we plan on doing more tour stuff next year - so I figure it wouldn’t hurt to get the record out there.
widowslaugh123 11.13.24	Good stuff man. Not really my style genre-wise but’s it’s really well done.
GreyShadow 11.14.24	oh, this is VERY up my alley. amazing stuff!!
LucretiaMyReflection 11.14.24	Widowslaugh - thanks for giving it a shot. I see you’re more into Post-Punk which is rad. I used to be in a Goth/Post-Punk band called The Cult sounds. That style is still something I constantly listen to
LucretiaMyReflection 11.14.24	Greyshadow - hell yeah! Thank you! Very glad you dig it. I checked some of your ratings and I was very curious to see what you thought since this was in that Emo/Post-Hardcore space.
LucretiaMyReflection 11.14.24	Also, from the same city as Foxing
GreyShadow 11.14.24	yall definitely sound like you'd fit on a bill with them!! genuinely great stuff, gonna keep you guys in my rotation!
LucretiaMyReflection 11.14.24	Yo thank you for checking it out. That means a lot!
Slex 11.14.24	Oh nice I absolutely love True Detective too haha Excited to give this a listen asap
LucretiaMyReflection 11.14.24	So, I did listen to The Dark, Dark Bright and it’s a phenomenal record. I genuinely don’t know how I missed it back then. I was in college and very actively expanding my music tastes and digging into new music constantly.
Slex 11.14.24	Hell yeah glad ya enjoyed it!
artificialbox 11.14.24	I listened to this 4 times in a row last night and will probably be jamming it all day at work. Absolutely smitten. I’m thinking of whipping up a review for it if nobody beats me to it
LucretiaMyReflection 11.14.24	Oh shit. Wow thank you! That seriously means a lot. You’d probably be the only and first to review it haha I’m attempting to fix the album art but Sputnik is actively fighting against me on it.
LucretiaMyReflection 11.14.24	Oh never mind. I refreshed and it’s there now
YoYoMancuso 11.14.24	Congratulations brotha, I'm looking forward to checking this out
LucretiaMyReflection 11.14.24	Yo thank you! Really thrilled folks seem to be digging it. Seriously means a lot. We plan on hitting the road more to support it next year.
LucretiaMyReflection 11.14.24	Genuinely, thank you everyone who's given the record the time. Very appreciative of y'all
DungeonBoy 11.14.24	That intro to Washington sure does remind me a lot of Bane - Calling Hours: https://endhitsrecords.bandcamp.com/track/calling-hours That second track sounds like a totally different band than the surrounding two. A bit weird.
LucretiaMyReflection 11.14.24	Good catch! The riff is basically Calling Hours and There, There thrown in a blender. Calling Hours was ALSO the inspiration for the gang vocal on the title track (featuring members of Squint, Fight Back Mountain, I Like Snaps, Portraits and Landscapes, Maladjust, STL Hardcore community, and Family Money)
keaton_86 11.15.24	Nice, I'll listen to it today and report back. Congrats for putting it out.
LucretiaMyReflection 11.15.24	Hey thank you! Hope you enjoy it!
artificialbox 11.16.24	review is up :^) spoiler alert: I love it.
LucretiaMyReflection 11.16.24	Incredibly kind words. Thank you so much. It seriously means so much that you feel this strongly about the record.
keaton_86 11.17.24	Heyo. First of all, great stuff all round. The production is really good and you can all play your instruments really well. Overall the individual songs are really good, however I feel like there is a massive lack of consistency considering its an album. To go from post rock, to post hardcore, to like, jimmy eat world rock is a bit too much of a stylistic shift. However, each of these songs are done really well. The title track was a highlight for me because it sounded like the most original sounding song on the album. Either way, good shit all around and congrats again on getting something out into the world.
LucretiaMyReflection 11.17.24	That’s a fair criticism. We did consciously go into this album not trying to stay within the lines of any sub-genre and kind just wanted to pull our core sound in different directions based on what we were feeling. I think we really just wanted to stray from our old stuff that was strictly just in the realm of Pop-Punk. We felt it was cohesive because it still sounded like us, but I can totally understand anyone saying it doesn’t feel cohesive or it’s jarring. I’m glad you felt we at least did those different styles justice, that’s cool! Thank you for giving up some of your time to check out the record. That means a lot
YoYoMancuso 11.18.24	The chorus of "Spiral" is going to be stuck in my head for the rest of the year
LucretiaMyReflection 11.18.24	Thank you!! I’ll pass that along to our vocalist Lyle. He will be very pleased to hear that
keaton_86 11.18.24	" I’m glad you felt we at least did those different styles justice" Absolutely man. You guys are clearly talented and know how to write a song. Great stuff. Also, I really liked the overall drum sound.
