Happy New Year or whatever day it is when you finally got the f uck around to reading this and welcome to the lamp lighter top ten albums of the year 2018
NUMBER TEN
And Nothing Hurt is the eighth studio album by Spiritualized.
Sometimes a comeback album is like I think even the critics want the nostalgia to ring true so bad there’s a loud echo of love there but there’s something missing like Jarboe. I’ve loved Spiritualized since Spaceman3. Jason Pierce’s voice is still tender and fragile now with just a touch of rasp. One time and it’s hard to swallow this but over three decades ago I was out west sitting in a river with a waterproof Walkman listening to this song
and my boyfriend came up to me and he was so tall and strong and we made out while the water rushed to cover us and that song played and Jason Pierce that’s what he means to me. Those moments, usually drug induced, when it doesn’t matter anymore that it’s not ok. You’re just twirling around completely absorbed by the now.
