there are cobwebs beneath the passenger seat
mold growing wildly in between
splotches on the floor all have a dusky sheen
the ac reeks of last year's memories
i am so much lonelier than i thought i'd be
at 22 when the world's just opening
there are so many people and places i wanna see
but i've burned too many bridges since graduating
i'm waiting for that revelation
one that strikes like lightning in an instant
someone take my car
i don't want it after where it's been
i'll just stay in one place
until my early twenties end

Thom's pick: Slowdive feels just as current and engaging as ever on this one, maybe just as timeless as Souvlaki. From start to finish, it's an absolute soundbath: warm, lush and soaked in melancholy. Damper
Chris' pick: This was a huge return for Crime in Stereo after a 13 year break. Glitchy soundscaping, catchy vocal hooks and attention to detail make this album a fully cohesive listening experience. Damper
Phil's pick: I've had this album on nonstop since it came out. Nick DePirro's guitar is truly incredible and Aric Improta makes excellent use of space as he weaves together layers of rhythm on drums. Damper
This may be Nate Kinsella's "dad record," but the array of experimental sounds and soulful songs on offer evidence a new creative peak. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 23, 2024
