Will always be inexorably linked with the pandemic for me, but equally almost feel like this album saved my life (or at least my mental health) - it appearing out of nowhere just as we entered that brutal winter lockdown was a genuine fucking christmas miracle. My favourite of theirs and always gets heavy rotation this time of year ![]()
Yeah this is basically how I feel about it. I didn’t have much connection to The Avalanches before but it seamlessly blended so many different influences into a big hug in album form.
It was my album of the year, whenever that year was, and my opinion hasn’t changed.
Love The Avalanches. SILY a top 5 all-timer for me and my go-to summer album.
Wildflower is a lovely album too!
Completely agree with the love for it. By far their best album imo.
There was this
Then this…
Then the festival saying the new music sounds amazing.
Announcement must be due any time!
Got WWALY on
It’s perfect, one of my favourite albums of all time.
Always reach for it when I’m depressed and it’s a comforting friend.
Interstellar love just came on in my classroom. Makes the drudgery of marking almost bearable.
Its just brilliant. Unapologetically sentimental and emotional, with perfect guest singers
