Seriously, how the fuck is this band not bigger? Songs for Our Mothers is hands down one of the best albums I've heard in the last few years.

andymaq
Agreed...

[@pcebpceb1638]

Saw them with John Cale. You know the guy who formed the Velvets, produced Iggy and the Stooges, Patty Smith, Nico. He knows great artists. And these guys are fucking great artists.

The telly is red hot
It's autumn in my loins
There's glamour in them hills, tonight
All my ingrown time
Grapes of solid pain
Feed me to the door, again
Trying to hitch a ride
On a tinfoil deathstar
My baby's trying to hitch a ride
On a tinfoil deathstar
People make demands
It's hard to understand
Background hum at best, right now
Holding back the light
Put down your batter ram
Calm your shaking hands, tonight
Trying to hitch a ride
On a tinfoil deathstar
My baby's trying to hitch a ride
On a tinfoil deathstar
Is that David Clapson, wincing through the glass?
A deck of death white sanctions, firmly in his grasp
Type one, type one
It's a type one situation
Type one, type one
It's a type one situation
See 'David Clapson' for backstory

He's spot on actually but Whitest Boy On The Beach is a closer fit.

[@mookie2637]

Massively overrated.

[@mrsginn66]

Lias looks like he's been ironed by Negan. Doesn't make you feel like you need to bathe in bleach like the last video. Love it.
