lyrics

i was sliding slow across the floor
i was sliding slow across the floor
i was sliding slow away from everything i'd wanted before

i was landing heavy in the dirt
i was landing heavy in the dirt
if i had landed heavier i probably would have gotten hurt

and i was leaning heavy on myself
i was leaning heavy on myself
i was leaning, hard, away from all the arms of everyone else

but i was more the morning than i showed
i was more an ocean than a boat
when i was more of everyone, of everyone with eyes closed

I cannot get enough of the chord progression at the end of the verses of 'It is Love' - it really does something to my soul. 'Wholesome' is the track I get stuck on repeat though. What an incredibly beautiful and sincere album ♥ Oögonium

living in memory of something sweet

Undeniable melodies swim up from beneath layers of distortion and effects, making this a psych-pop winner. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 31, 2023

His Young Heart EP
by Daughter

This is the first album I found that really spoke to me as a young fem. From the simplicity, the bass drum, specifically in landfill is so steady and soothing. I love landfill because it perfectly portrays trauma bonds, sexual or romantic relationships rooted in power imbalance. Being led on, unrequited love, constantly being clueless if someone is a real friend, or a lover. Are they yours or are they ruthlessly rogue. Untameable. Love and hate are such similar feelings, and they often mingle. clementinehatepageichangedmymind
