    The Glow Pt 2 feels like a living creature. So full of life and character, but so fragile that you can feel it escaping you at a moments notice.

    The Glow Pt. 2 is the perfection of the Indie formula. Elvrum sings desperately of his struggle to obtain what he calls "the glow", or what is more literally his search for complacency and comfort with his own identity. The fragility of this album's instrumentation really helps to sell Elvrum's emotional state. He's losing hope, both with the world and himself. He's grown weak from his long search, and now he's unstable and vulnerable. But despite their weight, his voice conveys his words gently, which really emphasizes the creative, meticulous instrumental arrangement (honestly, who could've thought a steel drum would be threatening?) The lo-fi production only further pushes the sincerity that makes this album special. This album is all about emotion, and Elvrum's presentation does an amazing job at passing those emotions off to the listener. I could name 2-3 friends of mine who all consider this their favorite album of all time, and I can't say I blame them.
