When this first released, I was genuinely like “Theres no way I love this thing as much as I think I do, it’s too early to even know that” but no, I knew immediately it was one of my favorite albums ever and easily a masterpiece. I’m normally very conservative on making statements like that for a long time after I first listen to an album but I mean 3.5 months and dozens of listens later and its just as perfect as my first handful. God I love this thing

The UK has the most insane music scene right now. From amazing grime and rap artists like Wiley, Giggs, Stormzy, Dave, Little Simz and many others to rock band like Black Country, New Road, Black Midi and Horsey to jazz musicians like King Shabaka (saxophone beast) and his various groups (Comet is Coming and Sons of Kemet), Mansurr Brown (guitar), Yusseff Dayes (drums) and Alpha Mist (keys). So much really, really high quality music. I feel like half the artists I've been listening to recently are all UK based. Granted, I've listened to Ants from Up There more than any other album this year. I can listen to Bread Song and The Place Where He Inserted the Blade over and over again without it getting stale at all.

Here I am now, many months later, feeling like I truly am trying to live at the fullest, knowing that everything from those happy days (this music included) will always carry the aftertaste of the big void that was about to come shortly after. I hope that you too are doing good, and that you let go of everything which could hold you back from moving on :)

It's not exactly about parents, but it made me think about the passing of my mother last year intensely. Glad you're reacting to stuff like this, beautiful stuff. The departing of Isaac Wood from the band is a heartbreaking moment, you will find very few singers of his emotional acuity and vocal expression. He is not the most technically gifted singer but he does what he does perfectly, so idiosyncratic as a vocalist. I will still look forward to the band's output, but I feel like the two albums we have from them will be a very special moment in time. This is easily one of the best albums of the last decade.

She is 1 yr cancer free at the moment, praise the Lord! Cancer is not natural, 1000s of mummy autopsies, ZERO cancerous tumors!!! These fuckers have us swimming in a pool of toxins & poisons. Regardless, this soundtrack was what we listened to on our constant long drives & brings a flood of emotions when i listen to it. Our sweet baby is almost 3 now, & she has a brother, almost 5. Let music you resonate with, teach you, inspire you & guide you. We've been lied to, deceived on every level imaginable. Make babies, seek the truth & enjoy this experience & grow.

Dude really made, along with the rest of the band, an album this damn great and then stepped away from music just before it was released. This feels like a Neutral Milk Hotel situation all over again.

This is the current album to beat for the decade for me. Absolute masterpiece. I've listened to Bread Song almost every day since the album came out. Also, if you haven't listened to Schlagenheim by Black Midi, please please do so.

BCNR are going on tour this summer with new material, they said they won't play any Isaac songs, and from my understanding the bassist Tyler is gonna take on vocals but they're gonna share vocals between the 6 of them since they can all sing to some extent

100 fucking percent. That album blew me away the first time I heard it, I heard it two more times immediately after, ordered the vinyl, and booked gig tickets to see them. They are fucking AWESOME live. It is 100% worth a listen. Deftones is definitely an influence but I also think they have their own sound, in the quieter moments interspersed. Definitely definitely an album worth checking out.

Crazy how he references three of the most heartbreaking songs on the first official full length track- “Billie eilish eyes”-good will hunting “A concord will fly”-Concorde “Ignore the hole I’ve dug again”-Haldern It’s like he was warning us of what he was going to tell us about, what he had been through.

I love Jon’s main channel reactions, but you can tell here he isn’t trying quite as hard to be entertaining and at least appears to be acting more real. Not to say I don’t like his showman persona and I understand that is what pulls views but this is cool to see.
