Sequencing absolutely matters! All fast and you exhaust the listener. All slow and it's sonic Xanax. Gotta be a little push/pull there.
At any rate, this week I've been listening to Sweeping Promises new one (almost) non-stop. It took a listen or two, but man is it good! Dove in to Blondeshell this week as well after it was recommended to me. Not bad! I can see why so many people have it on their "best of" lists. I've also been listening to a lot of X lately.
Lastly, I picked up a copy of "The Longest Day" by the Del Fuegos. If the writing on the cover is to be believed, someone named "Rollo Steele" used to own it, and I really need this to be their actual name.
Loving Blondshell, thx for the recommendation!
So glad you're loving her record! Would take something extraordinary to knock it out of my top 5 for the year. Here's the longer review I did previously: https://kileylarsen.substack.com/p/blondshell-drops-an-explosive-introduction

Sonic Xanax is the wave of my new ambient project jk 😂
I'll take the rec and give Sweeping Promises a shot. Glad you're digging Blondshell, so good! Signed, Rollo Steele
