ohiopunk reminds me of simpler times <3 Favorite track: commencement.

JJ equal parts brooding, emotional atmospheres and impossibly tight and breathless punk rhythms. hidden places does more with 3 members, 8 songs and 22 minutes (their live set is more like 15) than most bands do in their entire lifetimes.

i first heard this album in May 2019 and i still don't know what to write here but i've listened to all of it pretty much every day since then, if that tells you anything. Favorite track: ann quin.

commencement 03:05
to be how it was when it was yesterday when you weren't far away sensation becomes cessation after all mahogany un-clawed don't you remember when you told me how you'd lie: one hand over your chest the other at your side eyelids would both be sealed so you could not see past wearing your favorite clothes so they would always last new assets are superlatively upheld the rest are naked til next time pigmented plants will do just fine where pink turns into white don’t you remember when you’d said i’d never come after a year or so i’d start to warm up some figments of how you sleep will start to leave my mind in the upcoming years i’m hoping you’ll be right

baby tracy 03:34
become too numb to worry of things years ago afraid that i’ve grown weary of your presence being here anymore too true—never meant to put you down the circle isn’t always round too true—never meant to put you down the only place i look is down withhold too old emotions to revive afresh contrary of my promises i find no purpose here anymore ————————————————————— let’s be good friends for tonight let’s be best friends for tonight let’s be family let’s be something for tonight

mood ring 02:53
spending all of my time under a light post why aren’t all the words i’m reading clearer? polycarbonated hindsight forging how i see when i’m underwater past the zylonite that’s in my head will i ever frame the focus i could not see the body berthed inside the barley if i could see your brevity i would make the worries stop spending all of my time next to your name hoping that i’d get to hear you say it i’ve become acquainted with the typeface that after some time replaced your face

separator 02:38
must it be the case that i cower away once the celluloid starts to show my face oh preliminary turns acute it’s a crisis caused by you i’ve got a whole lot of nothing to do with you so i’ll stay a stye yeah i’ll stay a stye i’ll sever ties i wonder why do i feel alright yeah i’m feeling just fine gonna take my time but i'll surely pass away nothing promises anything nothing was promised to me i’ve got a whole lot of nothing to give to you so i’ll stay a stye yeah i’ll stay a stye i severed ties i wonder why ha ha
