Oso Oso - Basking in the Glow ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ @osoosoband #osoosoband #osooso #emo #emopop #powerpop #indiepop #indierock #longbeach #ny #longbeachny @triplecrownrec ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I have really, really gotten into the newest Oso Oso album, though it was a little bit of a gear shift from the Yunahon Mixtape, the album that got me clinically invested in this solo project by Jade Lilitri. For those of you out of the loop, Oso Oso is making some of the most catchy and perfectly sized emo pop songs since the golden days of Saves the Day and the Get Up Kids. They're adjacent to The Hotelier, but err on the side of classic power pop chord progressions and songwriting style. The Yunahon Mixtape transported me back to my first year of college and how exciting it was to discover albums like StD - Through Being Cool. Basking in the Glow is much softer, much more introspective, and more akin to the newer waves of emo revival. It's a gorgeous record and further proof that Jade is one of the rare, near flawless songwriters of our time and frankly it may be best that his songwriting brilliance is still very DIY and indie because we know how major labels tend to seek and destroy this kind of elemental magic when they find it. I'd be happy to see Oso Oso stay just under their radar and continue being an absolute titan of indie pop without any of the over-produced and made for minivan commercials nonsense that have plagued their peers historically. If you're looking for a great recreational sadness end-of-summer soundtrack, you just found it. Great work! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #osoosooso #yunahonmixtape #thehotelier #vinyl #vinylexams #vinylporn #vinylcollectionpost #vinylcollector #vinyljunkie #vinyljunkies #record #recordcollector #newmusic #albumreview #review #vinylrecord #vinyls #newrelease #newyorkmusic #nymusic (at Seattle, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/B12DNHoJPXf/?igshid=awc45d1d6v33
