Separately last night I told Brad that this song by some Welsh 17 year old would suit and I stand by that:

Fucked Up rules so hard

Yeah wait is "this years SLIFT" supposed to be Fucked Up or Rhododendron? Because I could really use a 2021 SLIFT in my life. The former I'm waiting for my physical copy to get here, the latter is new to me.

sorry, I should clarify. played through the rhododendron last night and thought it was SLIFT-y at times. it's also king crimson at times and refused and smashing pumpkins and hum. it has a lot going on but was a lot of fun. after it ended I felt a lot like I did when I finished the Slift album, it was a psychedelic journey through space but was always rockin'

The Rhododendron bisnes mildly too widdly for me, Fucked Up obviously immense, yeah maybe I tolerate the widdle in certain contexts...
