Long steps through the embarrassing. I'll just let the phone ring. Waking, smiling and faking. Julie, do you ever think of me? But I'm a Class A Victorian, yeah I'm going to put up a fight. We'll let the kids gather round, yeah the kids will gather round. We will see who is wrong or right. So what's the problem, what's the problem Julie? Isn't it everything you asked for it to be? Could we leave out the part where I say I'm sorry. I've got my shoes on tight, got my head on right, I'm spinning. But you act so far away. But I'm a Class A Victorian, yeah, I'm going to put up a fight. So what's the problem, what's the problem Julie? Isn't it everything you asked for it to be? I'm getting the knack for loving people I shouldn't. I'm getting the knack for staying dry while I'm walking on water.
Been following Somos for many years, feeling that they had an opus in them...well, here it is. Driving pop-punk sensibilities lend an upbeat tone in contrast to the grim lyrical proceedings, and they absolutely pull it off. Evocative music that's been on repeat for me all month long. RIP, Phil PaintedDogs

Julien Baker is an acquired taste - assuming of course you’ve acquired great taste in singer songwriters… beautiful, devastating, honest, insightful… I’ve not heard a single song of hers that hasn’t left me in absolute awe. crisbroadhurst
