Comment:

Again I made my little sister a mix for her (14th) birthday, though this one's much cooler than last year's. She cares very much about learning new music, and these songs work for her life right now, with recurring themes and everything (houses, war, vulnerability.) A couple songs are included by request rather than inspiration (the Vanderslice, Long Winters) but they work out well. Title from the Candy Butchers.
