Beefy stetson hat workout. Ravishing harp and fun fender deluxe reverb tones.

Not unheard of to go into this after scarlet fire (34 times) still, something of a wacky pranksterish reset. Speedy and powerful version with growl.

Devils come alive. Joy ride to wirepickin' ecstatic oblivion. Furiously active yet not autobahn, deep 80s

Great one. Kits duet is really inspired. Space curdles out with noise but gets jester's hat nightmare with vocal pranks. Beautiful long bluesy intro

kind as fuck, soft space intro, tectonic plate shift tempo, narcotic inflection, physical sonic shape.

finds them in screaming form, walls of sonic education

horton field house on the horizon, cedar falls iowa in the rearview, scarfire magic is happening, as such this 3.0 rager is jester's hat right out of the gate. very substantial and rewarding version. Marvellous dynamics and mysterious melodies, fire is replete with great stuff, elegant easy wispy rhythms and Wolf throwing a tantrum.
