Can we all just take a second to appreciate this dope ass jam?

People really underrate that era of Avey. They think he's all pitch shift and flange

Crazy to think they tried to work this out as a Feels jam

This song is relevant to the discussion and maybe some of ya haven't heard it

I bought the whole compilation that Eagle Kisser was on. There's a sweet Rings song on there and Deerhunter has a cool track too.

lol i saw rings without realizing there was a portner in the band and thought it was just super derivative.

a feels-era solo avey record would have been so good (although the kria tracks are p great)

judy biworker has always been one of my favorites. it's so…. I'm not sure how to describe it... psychedelic but in a grey, sad way without colors. Maybe I'm just saying that because of the lyrics.

Truly underrated tho

bi-worker has always felt really purple to me, and actually kind of happy in a weird way.

Post **Posted:** Wed Jun 04, 2014 1:43 am

interesting. maybe light-purple for me hehehe

like its totally dark in a lot of ways. The imaginary friend aspect can definitely make it seem creepy, but something about it seems like hopeful ya know?

Post **Posted:** Wed Jun 04, 2014 3:13 am

i can see that 4 sure

Listening to Eagle Kisser for the first time. Holy shit this is good.

my high school girlfriend said the music made her feel trapped

I certainly wouldn't disagree with her. This song(biworker) has felt different every time I listen to it over long periods of time. The feeling that remains constant is a strange calmness that can be either comforting or almost anxiety inducing. I really think that is the best part of AC's music too. There have been times where, depending on where I am listening and probably the pressure in my ears, played a factor into how a song sounds, especially tracks like water curses, or anything from feels, where it is a very major(chord) sounding song with a lot detuning. That effect can make the song sound completely different depending on your listening experience/mood.

I have this same feeling for Abyss Song.

Also, I Am Your Eagle Kisser is an amazazazazing song. It's a shame it never saw an official release on a solo album or something. Still a great song though.

cool song title too, up there with 'call home, buy grapes'

Post **Posted:** Fri Jun 06, 2014 6:33 pm

no disrespect to Angel, but damn, those two made some magic together! Their Planet Claire session still floors me every time

Post **Posted:** Fri Jun 06, 2014 8:57 pm

^^^^ Seriously.

this is the definitive version of flesh canoe as far as I'm concerned.
