someday i will finish my thesis-long analysis of why this album is so important to me, but i'll say this: it's the best record about war ever composed, and a decade later i am still thinking about the shades of meaning it holds.
the prince of the modern age takes in all of the hippest wonky and purple sound electronic trends of the 2010s and vomits out a rainbow-colored series of bangers with hooks stacked upon hooks alongside a truly, TRULY unique sound.
hypnagogia rendered unto us via the best hip indie band that never was. lou reed and post-punk existing side by side, creating the coldest warm record you'll ever hear.
