My new favorite album. I generally prefer instrumental works, but this has my favorite vocal style. a bit distant and a little distorted. dreamlike. I learned of the band's existence from Planet Money: they did a joint episode with a podcast this band does the music for, and Waking Up to the Fire is used as one of their theme songs, but the whole album is unexpectedly fantastic. It also reminds me of something I can't quite place. So it's also somehow strangely nostalgic.
fav track: Carl Pagan
