Live From Studio 10 Full Podcast
Dancing About Architecture
These 13 tracks explore the themes of contentment, chasing an alternate American Dream, moments of clarity, moments of failure and wanders between sly social commentary and heartfelt and earnest lyrical waxing’s. Musically it is a wonderful hybrid of sounds, as if they have taken the last 40 years of western music and conducted a hideous operation, dissected the patient and then reassembled it again into a wonderful musical chimera, one that you are simultaneously slightly repulsed and confused by but at the same time you find mesmerizing and beautiful.

Fuel Yer Delusion vol. 4
You would think that after the success of Object Permanence we’d have stuck with this acoustic vibe, but if you’ve read all of these recaps so far you know that we wouldn’t do the same thing twice in a row.
