“saw TV on the Radio and blood & thunder the first time our friends drank liquid that changed forms in outside lands. was great. dropped dead weight. had fun. spun in a tangle of bodies + faces + feeling. lost & found them again + center. Wolves Like Me is all i care to see when running with hearts in hand. after, we thought Trader Joes was open and sprinted through the lot only to be womped by reality. but the night stayed wholesome till the light gloves came out and i had to hitch a ride back home. ~~~ love the lyrics on all the songs. verses change meaning for me every 10 years. i never knew how to describe the genres and instruments used in here but i like that. though when spotify shows that just 1 song got pop'd, i assume the crowd will be ass then annoying until it comes on. i'm not online like that and that shit happened at Blood Orange in Portola and i was iiirked. but was cute to see friends dancing and keeping memories together. those are the things worth holding when platforms buckle. happy for their happy and Dev's success. i'm just gettin' old & curmudgeon'd. there's always more to hear + love. just stop bumping into me plz. i already in the back dancing with myself. ...relistening + talkin' ♥︎ I Was a Lover, Hours, Province, Playhouses, Wolf Like Me, A Method, Let the Devil In, Dirty Whirl, Tonight, Wash the Day Away album on youtube + apple”

“i remember first hearing this album while i was working running books in my college bookstore. this older hipster guy who i found pretentious and annoying was like “check this out” and put it on, so i was extremely primed to hate it. but when it came on half of us just huddled around the stereo entranced. it was unlike anything i’d ever heard. i later saw them live at la sala rossa in montréal with the dirty projectors—maybe the best show i’ve been to. so so good.”

“Will always love this album. For me it was one of those albums you discover in your early 20s that becomes the soundtrack of your life for a period.”
