Whopping marimba-laden, a hot, and wobbly excursion into '84 Space. Luxuriantly gorgeous though threatening.

facts, many from these years are beautiful. Lesh and jerry ventriloquist netflix special intro. both are lapping up this show musically, Jer turning on cowboy chops. This one swirls and roars with a glacial ease akin to the offbeat soothing nature of the indie pop of the years to come.
