pinegrove: cardinal

sorry, review says "The band and label mutually agreed that Pinegrove would self-release Skylight and donate the proceeds to charity."

i, uh, liked this a lot. "skylight" is a beautiful song

thanks for trying to find some kind of consistent language everyone but it’s fine, it doesn’t matter, the rehabilitation is complete and i have to stop caring

does it matter at all that the rehabilitation, as it were, was coordinated w/ the victim

i’m not getting into it

Yeah most of the tracks are growing on me quite a bit.

And for me it's more than generous enough to give the sales to charity even without streaming revenues, it's still a job for them. Plus I often won't buy something without discovering it via streaming it first.

having read about this situation, what has the pinegrove guy done wrong except break up a relationship that was probably going to break up anyway

no way are they donating streaming $ to charity. someone should ask them, if they are donating it I'm sure they'd be happy to answer.

well they'd better donate all or none of it so we can be sure if they're good people or not

i would like to apologize for starting this

tickets will be available at pinegroveband.com/tour. we’ll be donating a portion of profits from each ticket sale to planned parenthood.

welp, this thread - once teeming with enthusiasm for its namesake band - lies in tatters and neglect.

also, the new Pinegrove album is good.

cardinal is still special, skylight was disappointing even if you disregard all the...stuff. i haven't gotten around to the new album yet.

totally agree, though i think i liked Skylight more than you. (can barely remember Marigold, however.)

the new one isn't Cardinal either, but it's good.
