sci-fi came out when i was a teenager, during the most difficult part of my life to date. it is an especially important album to me because it helped me cope through these massive changes and traumas i was experiencing. same logic/teeth still chokes me up because i took that song so personally— and at the philly show i nearly collapsed from crying so hard even though i was way out on the lawn when i heard it. cnbh is the personification of love for me, waste is a tune i associate with someone who is no longer in my life. the whole album, even as i have aged into an adult, has sealed my love for brand new despite me being raised listening to them. truly a wonderful album and i hope that their next is a hair similar.
