So this was a difficult listen, though I don't regret it,

The cover is unsettling

die tranny

I nearly cried the first time I heard it. On the second listen I found it mildly annoying but mostly just boring and by the third I never wanted to hear it again.

I've only made it thought the first half.

Its something about trans stuff or homosexuality i think.

Idk about the lyrics, but otherwise it's a pretty decent album. Someone posted it on an underrated album thread which is how i discovered it

honestly pretty much this

Never experienced anything like it. At the time, it was so rare for me to find anything that hit me so hard emotionally but then I hated it every other time I heard it.

>>69930925
It's a very hit or miss record. I would like it a lot more if it had been cut down in length. Still enjoyed it, though.

>>69931540
Basically this except a couple of the singles are still killer for me.

>>69931649
This except ironically.

all my favorite parts about it (the loose tempo-switching shtick, the "sexual unconscious"/body physicality lyrics) came to feel so gimmicky

>>69931755
I'll at the very least keep it around for Wild Dogs: Divorce! and Avalanches. I'm hoping that I won't have the diminishing returns issue everyone else is though.

my understanding is that he's a gay man and his significant other is a trans woman early on and it's creating strife in their relationship as she acts differently and her body changes :'(

don't give a shit about the album theme or the le feels but it has a few alright songs. 1990 Was A Long Year is my favorite one

It's like my experience of Mason's vocals literally went from "one of the most heart wrenchingly vulnerable performances ever" to "poorly controlled and ham". I was very young and felt pretty insecure about my sexuality at the time but it's not as if I'd overcome all that by the next time I heard it.
I still like to think I might come back to it someday and it'll just sound like it did that first time but I don't care so much anymore. I've since gotten a lot better at finding music that resonates with me like that.

never really got anything from it

its like something for cis people to feel bad for trans people to

>>69931821
cool thanks. thats actually pretty interesting

In this Mason says that the album is about his relationship with a trans person, so I guess that's the root of it.

yeah i can really relate to xiu xiu more than anything else

i know a lot of good music by trans people but nothing that really is good because of how they talk about gender
