The newest Spirit of the Beehive album is my album of 2024 I believe, perhaps? Very close. It’s only 39 minutes? It feels so much longer. This record just flows with ideas and is brilliantly melodic all of once.

American Radiohead levels of creativity here. They operate on a parallel compositional axis. Melodically they are just so different. They also present their ideas in a very American manner. You hear the Cursive influence. That whole corner of post 3rd wave emo. It’s there, barely but I hear in some of the presentation. It’s just a very re-listenable bunch of very densely composed songs. I wonder how they present this live?
