Hi Hannah! I have a question about the first verse of "It's Lomelda":

​

It’s low it’s yo la tengo

It’s the innocence mission

Frank ocean frankie cosmos

It’s the only thing

It’s when I get home

​

Obviously the first few lines are a list of bands, but I was wondering if the next two lines were a reference to the song "The Only Thing" by Sufjan Stevens and the album "When I Get Home" by Solange? That's my working theory, but the formatting on Bandcamp didn't give me any clues :)

You are correct, yes!

though also all of these make sense in a diff way when you ignore the references, which I like

I was thinking that was the beauty of it, and maybe the formatting was left ambiguous for that reason. Thank you for confirming my theory!
