[@ceohannahbannanah1238]

@Char Aznable I wouldn't call it a more polished Duster. It seems like a very intentional pastiche of nu-metal and adjacent sounds from the past, with the whole... Delicate angst with hushed vocals over hanging distorted guitar melodies, a sorta pre-ironic sincerity. It's sorta like Freak on a leash by Korn lol kzbin.info/www/bejne/oIOqo4F6i5eggcU I like it a lot, I think he's doing a really good job reheating that sound and aesthetic appearance while adding something dynamic to it

[@vishkavishovski300]

I’ve come back to this video around 20 times now to better form my understanding of this song. As a huge Alex G fan, at first, I thought the video was subversively mocking something and wasn’t sure on my feeling towards the composition. Now, I’m getting the feelings I get from the 70’s prog group, Goblin and horror soundtrack maestro Dario Argento. I’m glad I persisted. Thank you, Alex G.
