I’m getting older. I realize a lot of people that listen to music have never done this: Buy a piece of physical music, sit alone in a room and listen to the entire album. Read the lyrics and look at the album art. Take In the entire thing without distractions. Trust me, it rules

Guys, there's a brand new @Convergecult song. I just listened to it. I want to play it for you, but I can't. It's really good. I also can't tell you when you'll be able to hear it. That's my update for the day. I hope it was as frustrating for you as it was for me.
