I feel like every 6 months I return to this Gladie album from 2022. These 4 songs take me back to why I fell in love with this type of music back in college.
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
perfect from start to finish, i probably listen to the album in its entirety maybe once a month. and at the beginning of spring and the beginning of fall…boy, do i run that album into the ground. but never do i tire of it. more contemporary runners up include heaven knows- pink pantheress and i love my mom by indigo de souza.
I met Erin (@RIOTGRRRL) and Jake (@SLOWDAZZLE) last year after I started using PI.FYI—we organized a meetup before a Jonathan Richman show and immediately clicked over our shared taste in music and similar sensibilities. We started hanging out a lot and had some great times together. I’ve also gotten to know many of their friends, who are all really cool. Erin and Jake started dating a couple of months after the three of us became friends, but our group chat still pops off. Their friendship has meant a lot to me, especially since moving to NYC in 2023, and I really appreciate having them in my life.
Come hang with some PI.FYI folks at Franklin Park in Crown Heights in Brooklyn on 7/19 @ 6:30. riotgrrrl and slowdazzle will be there too! Link is the Partiful invited!
