The Gay Parade

It's a very peculiar groove, It's like electro psychedelic Folk. What makes this album special is that they tilted more to the electronica side, also more heavily leaning into psychedelia, making their music feel more full than their last couple of albums. It's expressive in it's bizzarre whirl of psychedelic sounds, and equally bizzarrily enjoyable. While I don't really care for the first two songs, the album has an incredible, uninterrupted runtime after Tulip Baroo.

.......*longer sigh*
