I like how Pitchfork has a bar at the top that tracks your progress through the article. Anyway Cloud Nothings are probably my favorite band right now, and have been since Attack on Memory blew everything else in 2012 out of the water. Turning On and Cloud Nothings are two of the best straight up lo-fi / twee albums in recent memory as well. P4K is spot on with declaring "Forget You All the Time" as one of their best early songs. Dylan Baldi is one of the most talented songwriters out there today and he really seems to be an unassuming and intelligent person who happens to make great music. I could easily type up 500 words on this band.

    At the band's first-ever show—opening for Real Estate and Woods in Brooklyn at the end of 2009—

Holy hell. Talk about a way to introduce yourselves as band...

I would love to see a Baldi/Brown collaboration though, that would have so much potential. Also, this reminded me to buy a ticket for their show in Allston so thanks for that.
