Back in 2016 my mom introduced me to this band, instantly fell in love. I was listening to my playlist last night and “life itself” was playing, (also am new to Reddit). I was wondering who knew them before that HEAT WAVES saga in 2022?

Kinda looking for my people too 🤘🏻

I’m looking to eventually get a tattoo that represents this band.

Some ideas that I have are a tangerine branch (or even a branch of all the fruits they mention)

Or like some sort of pineapple thing for Pork Soda

But I’m curious, any ideas for the song Youth?

I don’t really want to put lyrics on my arm, but more something visual that could represent that song

I mean like, what songs do you move around in the queue to listen to in a specific order?

Mine are Exxus -> Golden Antlers -> Cocoa Hooves -> Psylla -> Cocoa Hooves Part II -> Holiest -> Dust In Your Pocket

In 2016, I was introduced to HTBAHB when it dropped, and to say I have been enamored and entranced by that album is an understatement. When they dropped dreamland I was very excited, but they lost that psychedelic jungle sound and had this overproduced, generic sound and every single song I ended up skipping in complete disappointment, finding just 3 to be tolerable. Then they dropped ILYSFM and I listened to the whole thing, and I can name not a single song off that album. It was one of the biggest let downs of the last decade having to listen to my favorite modern group just drop the ball completely and run with a sound that’s going to be so beyond forgettable in a few years that no one will even remember it. I’ve been waiting a decade now to get another HTBAHB, or something even reminiscent of it. Is anyone with me on this?

Hi everyone! My boyfriend bought me Zaba zoetrope for our anniversary and I have been chasing that album for years. Let’s just say I sobbed lol. It’s sealed and all that so I’m wondering if I should keep it sealed and never play it and just buy a normal Zaba vinyl and play that instead? I’m not looking to resell it ever but I’m really afraid to fuck up this vinyl.

Thanks everyone in advance !

Honestly, I don’t get the hate for this album. I genuinely do not see the “every song sounds the same” critique that people have, even though it is cohesive. Each song brings an entirely different vibe to the record while keeping it clear it’s the same album. From looking around on this sub, though, I saw that people don’t really rate ICMYFILA very high on the album.

In my opinion, this is one of the catchiest Glass Animals songs and it’s always stuck in my head after I listen to it. The line “But you were gone in high school, you walked out of my life”…I’ve seen people relate this to an ex lover but to me it’s pretty clearly about someone’s dad who left them and the narrator is ruminating on that. The album tackling the different types of “love” is one of my favorite things about the concept and the concept of unattainable love is so strong here, and I’d argue even stronger because it’s about a family member. It gives the track a real emotional depth, which I find this album has in spades and keeps it from being the generic mainstream pop album people like to say it is. To me, even though the songwriting may be more straightforward, each word was heavily considered.

I know people think the production isn’t that special, and while it isn’t anything crazy like ZABA or How To Be A Human Being, I still love the spacey atmosphere and guitar focus they had on this. All their albums are catchy and this is no exception.

Does anyone else have I Can’t Make You Fall In Love Again as their favorite?

Oh, and CREATURES IN HEAVEN IS ONE OF THEIR BEST SONGS TO ME! I loved it since the moment it dropped as the lead single. And if you want to comment I only like ILYSFM because I’m a newer fan, I’m a fan since Zaba, which was introduced to me be my mom when it came out, and she’s a fan because Gooey was the credits song for Magic Mike.
