After two self released LPs during the pandemic, this 3 piece burst onto the scene with two highly praised LPs last year!

They have now followed up that bit of busyness with a new 4 track ep that rips on “The Twits”. It is entitled The Tw*ts”.

Featured song for this discombobulated Tuesday is the off- key pop treat “the only conscious being in the universe.”
