this is one i didn't at all expect to see this high. it's fine but there are at least two or three songs on the great destroyer that improve on its general vibe

no in fact this song is incredibly dope

i love the drums soooo much
I really love “Nothing But Heart” but that was my #30 for the longest time but it eventually got pushed out for something that needed a better chance of placing.

I was one of the #1 voters for Silver Rider. Love the sense of dread and the overwhelming la-la-las on the chorus with Mimi’s voice riding over the waves of sound.

Nothing but heart was amazing during the DN tour with the weird light show behind the stage.

Seconded! Unless there’s some wonderful cabal of you out there, I think it’s safe to assume my favorite from HW won’t be placing.
― Western® with Bacon Flavor, Friday, 26 November 2021 21:03 (two years ago) link
Nearly half of mine placed under 25 and then it dried up, I'm now expecting my #1 not to place.

this is another i had no idea would be such a favourite at all
it’s going to be weird if the better Mimi-led song from that album doesn’t place.
― Western® with Bacon Flavor, Friday, 26 November 2021 21:29 (two years ago) link
More than any other song, Laser Beam made me a Low fan for life, no joke. I had ever heard an "indie" (for lack of a better word) song do so much with so little.

Ah there it is, phew! The unassailable distillation of what makes Low - perfect economical sound, those themes of violence, trust - feels like the grandfather of everything ever they've done, in a way. Never any question.

Amazing song.I know it's a bulb, but I always think the cover of Long Division is a bottle nipple.

quite surprised about number six. laser beam was my number one. i know what my odds are for number one...!
― maelin, Friday, 26 November 2021 22:40 (two years ago) link
hm maybe my no. 1 didn’t make it. do you all like “tonight” as much as i do or no
― STOCK FIST-PUMPER BRAD (BradNelson), Friday, 26 November 2021 22:47 (two years ago) link
I think it was on the other thread but I definitely had no idea “amazing grace” was liked so well. In the bottom half of their admittedly great track record of album openers (Words, Sunflower, Monkey, White Horses, etc.)
― Western® with Bacon Flavor, Friday, 26 November 2021 22:49 (two years ago) link
trust has some good tunes but i feel like the production is so... distant and indirect for the most part

kinda like that time i saw them in halifax minister for a christmas show but i was drunk off two miniature bottles of red wine from the train ride and stood behind a pillar at the back for the whole show
