Now that could have been a proper soundtrack to my last few evenings.

Dark, lyrical and melancholic. Credit goes to TOLEDO - a Boston-based indie folk/rock band. Duo if I am not mistaken. "Crane Song" is actually quite the curve ball. The first half is exactly what I described in the first sentence, but then the guys somehow masterfully pivot to a more Beach Fossils kind of indie/lo-fi/shoegaze kind of vibe. The best kind of surprise.

Truth be told, that track made me want to discover more music of that genre, but I am not even sure where to start from. It just sounds pure, personal and just ... music to space out to and not give a fuck about any worries and sorrows.
