Im Obsessed With Stick Season For A Lot Of Reasons, And One Of Them Is That Its Not About Getting Out.

I’m obsessed with Stick Season for a lot of reasons, and one of them is that it’s not about getting out. My whole life, I thought I was supposed to get out of my rural small town. And then I did get out, and I hated myself for not feeling the way I was supposed to about my shiny new life.

And at the same time, I am conflicted about the place I call home and whether it has held space for me the way I have held space for it.

And that’s what the whole album is. I just have to pretend he’s not talking about New England.

(But also it’s so important that I, a person from the middle of the South and the edge of Appalachia, can relate to songs about Vermont, because it tells us something about the ways we imagine America and its people. ANYWAY Stick Season fucks and I love it.)

not to be dramatic, but if “in your love” doesn’t win, i will dismantle the recording academy brick by brick and then eat the bricks.
