The board's server will undergo upgrade maintenance tonight, Nov 5, 2014, beginning approximately around 10 PM ET. Prepare for some possible down time during this process.
The album kicks open the door with a run of cuts that play fast and loose with rhythm and melody, featuring miniature breakdowns and guitar-riff emissions so thick they might violate EPA standards.

Ah yes the age-old wisdom of 24-year olds:
Frankie Cosmos Close it Quietly On her fourth studio album, Greta Kline gamely stares down her middle twenties, that messy period where one’s early projections about the future tend to start unraveling.

Wait that’s not how time works
Ezra Furman Twelve Nudes The songwriter’s most direct and brash album yet has no time for saxophones or keyboards. She gives specific, unpoetic examples and doesn’t mince words.

Pitchfork sucks but I think it's increasingly common to have a mid-20s breakdown given the state of the economy post-2008.

A mid-20s breakdown among pitchfork's average readership? Absolutely.

this doesn't really suggest a "breakdown" or even "wisdom" like Trag sarcastically suggests. More the beginnings of a reassessment of who you are, and who you think you'll turn out to be, which absolutely rings true in my experience.
I think Sasha Geffen is a very good music writer. She was with Consequence of Sound for a long time. I remember her review of Vulnicura being particularly illuminating.

Absolutely. And though I don't think this can be totally generalized (the age-range mostly likely corresponds to being a few years out of college), it's certainly more common than just "Pitchfork readers"

Dehd Flower of Devotion Recording in a studio, the Chicago DIY trio sound newly airy and lush, but no less direct and sincere. Their confidence in their concision is the best part.
