return to cookie mountain (tv on the radio)

i remember first hearing this album while i was working running books in my college bookstore. this older hipster guy who i found pretentious and annoying was like “check this out” and put it on, so i was extremely primed to hate it. but when it came on half of us just huddled around the stereo entranced. it was unlike anything i’d ever heard. i later saw them live at la sala rossa in montréal with the dirty projectors—maybe the best show i’ve been to. so so good.
