I’ve never heard this album before but, man, did I need this after so much boring crap.
It’s Saturday morning as I listen to this. My wife is on her way to work, teaching at the school where she was a student just a couple years ago.
My pre-teen daughter is sacked out after two shows at the musical theater camp she’s in.
My 8 year old son has just traipsed out of the shower in his bathrobe (95% autonomous, this kid), eating yogurt and toast and playing on his iPad.
I’ve got coffee to help me after a restless night of weird sleep. There’s dishes in the washer that need to be put away and laundry from yesterday in the dryer.
The coffee isn’t helping.
I am just a groggy mess.
Until this.
You can just inject “Lone Justice” straight into my veins, man. Screw Green Mountain anything. Fuck Illy.
Actually, the whole first side.
This album is relentless.
