@max@alternativenation I'm excited to check out their other records. This one new one I like, it's like a very involved movie. They put in weird things like 10 seconds of silence in the middle of a song.
@mountainCalledMonkey@_ed in my experience, when you upload to bandcamp you can choose the original release date, but if you don't, it defaults to the upload date. So it's more of the date it was released on Bandcamp.
@renwillis@ren Have you listened to Nicholas Krgovich before? He may not be as whimsical as Sufjan is at times, but, has a certain fragile (but somehow still fun-sounding) songwriting nature I find similar.
@ren@renwillis love when that piano goes up a scale slowly in flint, some of the piano keys are broken/not hitting correctly. Very fitting for such a haunting song.
@famousblueben sounds like that describes a good 2/3 of nmh songs, lol. I remember seeing them on their reunion tour a few years ago in Maine, and Jeff walked by the line of us outside waiting to enter, and someone yelled "Jeff, you stain my mountaintops!"
@coffe @alternativenation good stuff!
@ugjka have this on vinyl, so good.
@Snailpope 🤘
@Late2TheParty way too soon 😪
@Aesecakes good song 🎵

@renwillis @ren totally agree, I was just listening to "I walked" the other day and thought the exact same thing.

@renwillis @alternativenation "Naomi" is a good one from this album too.

of Montreal - Coquelicot Asleep in the Poppies: A Variety of Whimsical Verse
@renwillis @alternativenation this sounds great! Like punk rock Bob Dylan
@renwillis @cordillera @alternativenation 100% 80s vibes
@cordillera @alternativenation glad you like it! all that is old is new again, I guess
@tatta_tatta @renwillis
agreed. but, in true Canadian fashion, Rolling Stone does apologize that they are not on the list.
