Their new record First Aid Kit came out last week, and when I listen to it I'm happy as a pig in a puddle of cosmic slop.

Quinnisa sings lead on about half the songs, and if you think "gee that seems like a lot of Quinnisa," I'm here to tell you 1. It is a lot of Quinnisa 2. You want, no, you NEED a lot of Quinnisa

Very welcome thread! Barely started digging into this band, but on several days of the year Graceless Lady is my favourite song ever. Where would you go in their discography after listening to Bleedin' Hearts?

whoa, this new one is sounding rad. hard to really pin it down but it's breezy as heck while also establishing a Powerful Vibe. plus, yknow. the Child is Larking About at its heart

ultimately slightly too repetitive for me to truly adore it but very convincing sound & execution, def deserve a thread

See I have always found their repetitiveness hypnotic. It probably goes back to when I first mediafire'd Dead Songs, and the mp3s had that weird timecode glitch where a 4 minute song displays a runtime of like 9m40s, and if you haven't noticed the playback indicator ticking up at warp speed by the time you get to the end, it's like, "Really?? 10 minutes are up already...?"
