I never thought I'd hear another album that made me feel as feral as The Horror and the Wild did but HERE WE FREAKING ARE. Chords and Inkpot Gods gutted me, I have like five different lines rattling around in my head on loop, and I'm struggling to do anything but nest in this over and over. Thank you so so much.

Fantastic, a little haunting and melancholy in the best way. The addition of the strings give a lovely depth to Reeder's already beautiful piano work. (and I may be biased about my favorite track since I can clearly hear myself in it but it came together super well!)

An inspiring, melancholy, uplifting album that makes me want to curl up with tea, a good book, and a blanket while I watch snow fall outside my window. Perfect music to write to. I especially love "Julia" - not only does it make me think of the Adventure Zone character who inspired the track, but it makes me think of good quiet days with my own wife. All in all, this album is wonderful and worth whatever you can afford to pay for it. Hands down my favorite album I've discovered this year.

This album makes me ache and laugh and scream in equal measures. The music is gorgeous, the lyrics are an amazingly evocative mix of poetic and conversational, and the vocals are top notch. Joey's growl goes straight to your gut in songs like The Horror and The Wild, and Madeline's voice gave me chills in the best way. I've been waiting for this album a long time and I had no idea until today.

I love every song on this album. So many moments that make me unexpectedly (or expectedly in some cases) emotional. While it’s not my favorite to sing along to, I think the song that will lodge itself into my heart forever is Anna. It makes me think of all the dreams I never quite could reach but still cling to.
