funny you say that
I got hit by depression randomly and felt sleepy as shit. Some anon in a sharethread reccomend RHP so I put it on and I just connected with that shit. While I didn't feel like getting out of bed

You're literally only saying that because there's a bed saying that. I listened to it when I locked myself out of the house and there was clear, pure snow laying all around blocking the view in our backyard and it was dark as fuck. Related perfectly to that album, the numbness, the pure desire for beauty, the hopelessness (until I got back in again lol).

I took a lot of Mushrooms once and just walked around outside touching and looking at nature at a forest once. The visualizations were incredible and really made the music seem surreal. Gyroscope and The Devil is in Details were beautiful.

same here, listened to it in the dark after getting my wisdom teeth extracted. I remember the impact 24 made when it starts to get all distorted and bendy. I remember thinking it sounded like looking at the stitching of the song, like it flipped on itself

Listened to this on a bus trip. I was so tired, and I was going to a country-side house to spend some time with my family. I got into a dreamy state being half asleep and started tripping about the album concept and having physical and sensitive mild hallucinations.

I felt really experiencing the album. Similar stuff happened when I first listened Loveless.

I've had a few moments like this, but one in particular stands out.

Me and my girlfriend drove out of the city to go to her cabin for a weekend, and on the way back we stopped at a drive in movie theatre and watched a movie. Then, driving back, we put on Teen Dream by Beach House. I was driving and she was half asleep in the passenger seat. A storm started to appear on the horizon, and it was one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen. We had a perfect view of the bizarre cloud formations, and flashes of lightning would illuminate the entire landscape every few minutes. Something about the music, us being in the car, and the storm on the horizon just made every note sound perfect. It was surreal and beautiful and time seemed to stand still. Once the album stopped I swear the rain immediately started to pour. We just listened to the rain after the album finished.

It was the best music listening experience of my entire life and one of the most spiritual things I've ever felt.

I started uni recently. Made a lot of casual acquaintances but I miss all the strong connections I made in High school. I don't really know anyone here well enough to even call them friends. This album really resonates with me right now.

That's beautiful, spiritual feelings from music are always amazing.

Listened to this album sitting on my shitty student accomodation couch with my then fwb's head on my lap the morning after a stupid benzodiazepine and alcohol binge which both of us were still feeling the effects of. I had lost my virginity to her, and as I sat there rubbing her hair as both of us faded in and out of consciousness almost to the rythm of Shrines I think it was the happiest I've ever been.

You just gotta open up your heart and let love iiiiiinnnnnnnnn. You will make plenty of strong connections.

My best friend is still a lad I met in high school, we seperated for college but I still talk to him more than any one else I've met. You do tend to collect friends in uni almost by accident if you just force yourself into each social gatherings.

Try and join in with your roommates' groups if they're friendly. After a year or so you'll look back and realise that you've gotten quite a lot of close friends. Although I have to say that friendships beyond high school are much more transient, relationships shift, timetables no longer match up, people mature at different rates. It's important to learn how to leave friends behind as well as how to make new ones.

Back in high school I was at home with a pretty high fever one day. I spent the morning listening to pic related while reading Johnny Got His Gun by Dalton Trumbo. That was quite an experience for 15-year-old me
