sentient meat "Ghosts are just old houses dreaming people in the night. Have no doubt about it, hon, the dead will do alright. Go contemplate the evidence and guarantee you'll find. The dead know what they're doing when they leave this world behind." Favorite track: Nights That Won’t Happen.

""It is a certain hill.
The one I imagine when I hear the word “hill,”
and if the apocalypse turns out
to be a world-wide nervous breakdown,
if our five billion minds collapse at once,
well I’d call that a surprise ending
and this hill would still be beautiful,
a place I wouldn’t mind dying
alone or with you."" Favorite track: All My Happiness is Gone.

Håkon Kleppe Normann Nihilism and loss of belief condensed into one beautiful song. Favorite track: Margaritas at the Mall.

about

David Berman comes in from the cold after ten long years. His new musical expression is a meltdown unparalleled in modern memory. He warns us that his findings might be candid, but as long as his punishment comes in such bite-sized delights of all-American jukebox fare, we'll hike the Purple Mountains with pleasure forever.
