this album (by racing mount pleasant) is by far onea the best collections of music i’ve ever heard. it has some amazing winds (sax & trumpet primarily) and incredibly haunting vocals. perfect for rainy weather and late nights. each song has emotional and complex lyrics; my favorites are do you think i’m pretty & grip your fist.

thank you yazz for reminding of this album… i’ve been meaning to listen to it ever since i heard “IWR” on the very last episode of my friend’s college radio show, more than two years ago. now, i am laying on my floor, blissfully stoned, mouth agape in candle-lit darkness absolutely in awe of this masterpiece of music.
every single song feels so intimate, each sound, each word amplified and layered on top of the other, like cake, a sonic confection that makes your heart smile a lot (and your teeth hurt a little) with every bite you take. this album tries to do a lot, and in doing so, becomes irreplaceable. i can’t wait to see what they do next.
(also “IWR” is still one of the best songs literally ever!!!! yup)

about to make guacamole with my dad.
we visited his dad today.
instead of learning how to make chip dips, his dad taught him how to throw a ball.
it was weird; hearing my dad tell the lady at the counter, “i’m looking for my dad’s room.”
sometimes i forget he was a kid once, too.
my grandfather ended the visit by holding my dad’s hand and saying, “you wouldn’t believe how much i love you!”
both of them were trying to be strong, but i saw their eyes gloss over.
i made the guac, by the way. my dad was very patient with me & my questions about avocados.
i think its because he misses when his dad could be patient with him.
instead he’s a patient at the hospital
who can very well believe how much he loves his son.
i don’t know. just food for thought.
