Random Album of the Day

Today’s Random Album is Loveseat from Quarterbacks. This is Twee Pop, Cuddlecore, or Slacker Rock. And that all works for me.

This is the second album from Quarterbacks to make the album of the day. The first was a keeper so unsurprisingly this will also be a keeper. I like their Twee thing that they have going here.

My playlist for this is out of order. Oops. At least the songs have the correct titles. That’s progress.

Songs are all super short. But melodic and fun.

Rating: 9.1

Favorite Track(s): “Lauren” is lovely Twee. “Schmictionary” is good. “Last Boy” sounds good but the lyrics are either super creepy or sweet. Hard to say without digging deeper. I think it’s intended to be sweet after reading lyrics haha. “Simple Songs” is fun. “Don’t Wanna” is adorable. This was out of order but I enjoyed the whole album with its short twee love stuff.

Keep or Trash: Keep.

We’re currently doing a music league using the Band Jam App and our theme for this past round was Song for a Rainy Day.

I’ve included the list below the fold in a text format with streaming links. In case you’d rather do that…

Today’s Random Album of the Day is Quarterboy from Quarterbacks. This is some very twee music. Bedroom caliber twee. I quite enjoy it of course.

Is that a Striped Maple leaf on his head? It looks like it. Striped Maple we always called the toilet paper tree because it was quite useful when you needed that.

In any case, this is very bare bones, emo-esque twee. Lovely little songs that are short and enjoyable. Melodic music with just vocals and acoustic guitar.

Favorite Track(s): Words and Smiles (Tiger Trap Cover)

Keep or Trash: Keep. It seems like I’m keeping almost everything. But I do like my bedroom twee shit. And spoiler: one of their songs may have made the top 50 rain songs list. Just saying….
