You're the treasure in the sand
One seeks to find at a young age
When dreams of pirates and shipwrecks
Filled your mind with no regrets
Now all you want is to
Sail off into the cruel arms of the sea
Because the darkness seems better
Than anything else you can see
Don't close your eyes, admit defeat
Surely you'll get back on your feet
It is futile to toy with time
When what you want is out of reach
Question the motives of the motivational
You shouldn't have to think twice

This is the first album I found that really spoke to me as a young fem.
From the simplicity, the bass drum, specifically in landfill is so steady and soothing. I love landfill because it perfectly portrays trauma bonds, sexual or romantic relationships rooted in power imbalance. Being led on, unrequited love, constantly being clueless if someone is a real friend, or a lover. Are they yours or are they ruthlessly rogue. Untameable. Love and hate are such similar feelings, and they often mingle. clementinehatepageichangedmymind
The freak-folk collective's debut is full of rich, haunted vocals and experimental melodies derived from more traditional idioms Bandcamp Album of the Day Nov 9, 2021
The musicianship, clever songwriting / lyricism, musical arrangements and of course the gorgeous vocals of Louise. An album most remarkable. Contemporary indie-folky-pop, just superb, just love it :-) Hassles
