One of my current fave tracks
Highly Suspect

Again .. Play VERY LOUD !

Thus track starts slow ... kicks in at 1:05 ..
and may take a couple of listens.. rather like Radiohead stuff


This video reminds me of the WestWorld series

Their songs really vary .. with tempo

Maybe the idea was that they’d fill the Nirvana void rather than sounding just like them ..
