They’re good woos

[ellie]

You’re in denial river

[senatorsenpai]

A few of those throat singing passages from PetroDragonic Apocalypse could be bolded I think, "Flamethower" especially! Or at least a new link for the extremities?

[PerhapsXarb]

Afaik, Stu doesn't sing on "Most Of What I Like", that's a Joey song. Same with "Dirt", although maybe he's doing some of the backing vox (wouldn't count on it though— need a Joey thread) Plus there's a bunch of falsetto stuff on "Candles"


(also new album but I'm sure you'll get to that eventually)
