Unfortunate Fortunate Turn of Events (In Which Saijiki Surprises Me Beyond Words)
Well, it happened again. In the exact same way Mount Eerie left me speechless after my first listen, I find myself flabbergasted by 3776's Saijiki , released in 2019, the year in which I began my ongoing J-music discovering adventure. I've known about it since probably 2020, and had it downloaded since then. For some unknown reason (comically absurd lazyness) I'd never listened to it... Until today. This is called Unfortunate Fortunate Turn Of Events because I'm MAD. I'm mad that this is so good that I'll have to listen to it at least 5 more times to even begin to absorb it. I'm mad that I now have a crippling desire to memorize every second of the record, to fully know its in-and-outs and memorise all the lyrics. I'm mad that this is not as good as Long Season but actually MUCH BETTER than Long Season . In other words, this is the official second best album ever made according to therhinestonehawk dot com . I'm writing this on the blog instea
