I actually love these new versions of the songs with Andrew and the song choices are wild. Some very unexpected picks. The lyrical change on Bloodsucker makes it go from an incredibly cringe song about cancel culture and false allegations into one about how Tilian is a dick lol.
100% worth the wait. This was one of my favorite experiences I've had while listening to an album for the first time. It's a true love letter to fans while also showcasing that they've continued to grow and improve as musicians and writers. All of the references to the first two Acts are woven into new material seamlessly, nothing feels forced. I can't wait for the CDs to ship so I can endlessly pour over the liner notes to see what's really going on in the story.
Peripheral Vision is genuinely a perfect record. What can be said that hasn't already been said? This reissue contains the full original album, both tracks from the Humblest Pleasures EP, six alternate versions of tracks, and the most exciting part of this release, the full instrumental version of PV. This is an incredible love letter to the fans of this album.
i can barely think about this game without tearing up. the soundtrack is near-perfect.
Very few albums are as beautiful, heartbreaking, and cathartic as this one. It's a perfect album. Julien Baker is a criminally underrated song writer and I believe that she will go down as one of this generation's best.
