The rabbit hole we went down earlier this week was a result of a very long interview The Mercury Tree had done with those progrock super heroes Cheer Accident. Did they mention rabbits? It is a very long interview…. Before anything else we should mention the new Osiris Club abum, it has had a bit…
The five thing. Five more…. again. Again and again and again (and again). Five more, same as last time (and the time before) five more music things, another five? Already? Alright already?
