Really inspired, a kicking wisteria ode to the crackle of 72 versions. Long island love, big man goes off in this one, walls of devils too

Just hit this fabulous and deeply fascinating song again. The clip is drenched in raw intensity and I keep being mentally chased by Hunter knock-out punches like "all we ever wanted was to learn to love and grow" Doesnt get much realer than that to me. And this and so many roads started to outline a powerful new direction for the group that would have been solidified on their studio follow-up to Built to Last. It's all so tragic.
