Lonely Galaxy are a really ballsy band right now. Let's face it, if you're doing the straightforward guitar thing and you're on the blog circuit (ha), it takes some serious courage to put this kind of emotion out into the world. Most bands on their level would rather get kinda snotty and shuffle through a couple quickly recorded bedroom songs before moving on. Meanwhile, Lonely Galaxy are throwing strings and horns in there and setting it all to a video of a kid's birthday party. Maybe it's a fuck you to all the positive nostalgia music that's come out, a reminder that reflecting on childhood innocence is kind of sad. More likely it's just a band totally willing to put their emotions on the line and be like, Remember feelings? (via Transparent)
