Such Great Heights (20 years later)

It’s been a while since I posted on the blog…but listening to this today reminded me how this album changed my life. I think I first heard a The Postal Service song in high school from a friend, Logan Vath and I didn’t know what to do with myself for weeks. It somehow captured how I was feeling as a lost teenager and was the indietronica synth-pop that understood me. With their one album there were many tracks I connected with but…as cliche it sounds, ”Such Great Heights” always felt right. From the first synth notes until now, no matter how much turmoil I burn through everyday…no matter how miserable, it made me feel like it’s still the summer of 2003 and I can manage it. Is that REALLY 20 years ago?
