I want to live in a magic mirror
In the real world
Full of rain
I will
I want to live in a day like today
But not today
I will
When the city is silent
And we wake up to the rain
Alone together in a strange bed
When nothing is preserved
And nothing is agreed upon
And everything is silent
And wind rushes through paper
I will
Listen, through a magic mirror
In the real world
Another day, that’s just like today
Full of rain, just like this rain
That is silent, just like this
I will

Maybe the best thing David ever did, which makes me extremely sad. A Jews record in all but name, but more direct in its lyricism without losing that indescribable feeling, that beauty and sorrow and lighthearted sarcasm all rolled into one profound set of lyrics that are David Berman. Not to mention the band playing on the record is probably the best Berman ever recorded with. Rest in Peace DCB. jack_thorn16
An earthy yet somewhat chilly record about life, death, and reconnection, the latest from LOMA experiments with a turn towards the gloomy. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 16, 2024

This is undoubtedly my single favorite album of all time. It feels like such a perfect culmination of all the themes and ideas Fleet Foxes has been working with since 2008. It answers many of the questions found on both Helplessness Blues and Crack-Up, and represents an incredible maturation and growth in Robin Pecknold's perspective. Their other albums are certainly masterpieces, but this, in my opinion, is their magnum opus. I doubt it will be recognized as such in its time. isaiah_stuart
