boygenius - not strong enough & true blue - album just dropped this AM

[Hugh_Lebowski]

These 2 were released prior to the record (along with 2 other tracks) but today we got all of the songs ... yay ... spinning it now, dig it so far, but I expected to!

these ladies ... it's like they grew up on 80's/90's indie rock ... but they kinda didn't cause they're 27-28.

It's killing me trying to figure out what older song the verses sound like, but it's spot-on some other song. Closest I've gotten is 'Under the Milky Way' but I know it's even more like something else ... if you can pin it down, let me know, been bugging me for over a day now. Lucy's 'always an angel never a god' part totally reminds me of the ending section of 'When You Come' by Crowded House, that one I did figure out

I'm a big Lucy Dacus fan ...

Bonus track ... major Simon and Garfunkel vibes on this one.
