There’s a certain audacity in writing a song about a schizophrenic patient breaking out of a mental facility, stumbling into a circus, and watching lions eat clowns. On paper, that sounds like the kind of pitch you’d get from someone cornering you outside a record shop in the ‘90s; wild, messy, and maybe brilliant, maybe

There’s a special kind of boldness in titling your record Grace First. It’s the sort of name that sounds like it should be stitched on a motivational pillow, but in practice becomes this sharp thesis statement: whatever else happens, whatever braggadocio or flexing or chaos exists in the record, it’s grounded in the simple idea

That’s why when a song like Ooberfuse’s “Better Than Gold” comes along, it feels a
There’s something inherently funny about naming your album summrWondr. It looks like someone took out all the vowels because they were too expensive, but what you get in return is an accidental mission statement: no excess, no fluff, just the essentials. And that’s what this record feels like; an album stripped down to memory, sample
“Sweet Foxhound” is wired on shoegaze, tone consistency, and a coherent relationship between the bassline and the drums. It’s weirdly endearing and nostalgic, the way this song accurately captures a side of alternative and indie that we rarely come by these days. Be prepared to jam or zone out to five minutes of fun.
