im finally getting around to listening to the oh hellos new music (its all good) and my god im obsessed with "a kindling, of sorts". usually im ambivalent at best about instrumentals in albums of any genre but something about the plucking strings at the start and the percussion and how it ramps up and up and up just exhilarates me. so good. just a perfect start of the album. all of the actually sung songs after are fantastic too

#the oh hellos #oh hellos #key points: the (in my head) resolved almost self-admonishing tone to #''this ossified philosophizing's getting old'' in cold #all of the first verse in lapis lazuli #the background howling in lapis lazuli too #the flute(?) in rose #smoke rising is... the other instrumental #i joke its also pretty but its certainly not a kindling #also ''when atlas shrugs whose back is breaking''
