Criminally underrated TX-based dream rock outfit with sounds ranging from dark and overcast, to sunny and optimistic. All of it is totally stunning. Perfect soundtrack to a snowy night, candle lit seance, or cloudy beach day.
Listened to this vinyl so many times, my side B is warped 😭
FFO: The Cure, Cranberries, Camera Shy, Crushed, Narrow Head

Here are three! Wildly different vibes here, sorry for the whiplash
Hospital Bracelet is Midwest emo, kinda angry, less romantic yearning. More like yearning for better things.
wished bone is ethereal. I had super intense fever dreams to this album one time. pollinate me and spring time lover still have the power to stop me dead in my tracks.
Medium Build just gets it. I listened to this album for the first time on a road trip to see the eclipse this last year and my partner was asleep in my lap. It made me tear up. Love love love

Despite the creepy Victorian era album cover, the songs on this album are just so light and airy and dreamy and beautiful. my fav album of all time. rock/folk from the very early 2000s. a masterpiece.
perfect for driving around on a sunny day (or a gloomy day, or nighttime), taking a walk, cleaning, literally anything. this album makes my life feel cinematic when I’m listening, no matter what I’m doing <3

Here are my fav records that I have been listening to lately, this lineup strikes me as very "pi.fyi-core". Hope you enjoy :)
(in order of appearance)
-Thinking Fellers Union Local 282: Lovelyville <discovered this reading some Robert Schneider interviews after seeing the Apples in Stereo play for the W.C. Hart memorial show in Athens>
-DJO: The Crux <That guy from Stranger Things has a set of pipes, great happy album>
Panda Bear: Sinister Gift <sounds like The Beach Boys! the parts that don't are kinda atmospheric and very very pretty>
Bon Iver: SABLE, fABLE <he strikes again. very stripped back but absolutely gorgeous. Justin literally can not make a song that isnt somehow lush and cold at the same, like being covered in a sheet of ice that keeps you warm. He has this interview where he talks about the work and thought process behind it. Very cool!>
Black Country, New Road: Forever Howlong <this album features almost entirely female vocals, a nice change since Issac Wood left the band, and the vocals, piano, and woodwind instumetaion are just absolutely gorgeous, sounds like rain smells.
Cameron Winter: Heavy Metal <since half of this app is from Brooklyn, I'm sure you know this guy! He sings for the band Geese, but this record doesn't sound much like Geese at all. It has some of the craziest lyrics.I have heard in a hot minute, and is adorned by ~usually~ sparse and skeletal instruments, as well as Camerons odd yet alluring voice.
Hope you enjoy! lmk what you think of these records :)

Energetic, kooky bildungsroman featuring a cast of many P.I.-featured performers. Absurd enough to be on Adult Swim, prestigious enough to be highlighted at major film festivals!
Likely playing in a theater near you! Also on Apple TV 2/27. Saw it a couple times and would like to watch again!

Saw this at Quad Cinema in 2021, and has become a favorite ever since. Anne is a 27-year old daycare worker who is socially disconnected, and unsure of her role in adulthood. Her life radically changes when she tries skydiving, though as an audience, we’re unsure of the kind of release she finds from it.
Excellent Canadian indie about coming-of-age in your mid/late 20s. Deragh Campbell is great as Anne, who’s undiagnosed anxiety disorder keeps her a step behind from relating to her peers or finding a sense of happiness. It’s a brisk 75 minutes that’ll have you thinking far after the movie is over.
Bought the beautiful poster from Posteritati in the East Village and it remains one of my favorites in my poster collection.
