I am a depressed anthropologist and this sounds exactly like my internal monologue. This is the catharsis I've been seeking

[@wasnatehere]

welcome, friend

[@CoMCPranks]

This is the best comment I have seen in years. YEARS!

[@geraldblaney8957]

It gets worse the closer to now you get. I shave my back now.

[@devinrodriguez3530]

hell yeah

[@AntonQvarfordt]

Hey man - the who-whats during the evolution of species that went about their day thinking "nah I'm feeling pretty good about where things are at" obviously got rape-eaten immediately. Sure you could go around feeling fine about stuff, and shit.. Only if you did you'd already been extinct for ages. Feeling anxious about everything all of the time is what makes us f'in alpha, dog. Thats why we're on top.

[@maxmustermann2417]

This is the best thing my depressed, anxious and almost-burned-out mind has heard for years. It is incredibly soothing for me. Thank you so much viagra boys.

[@OutlandishMojo]

Favorite track off the new album, but barely, cuz it's all bangers start to end. One of those rare albums to put on and don't skip a single track.

[@w8jek]

indeed

[@seanbrennan5192]

Mine too man. Lyrically my favorite

[@mvhsm]

@@seanbrennan5192 this is my favorite one lyrically as well but Baby Criminal is probably my favorite one overall at the moment. So hard to choose

[@kettlebellmusclegain]

Love it as well but I feel this is the most unique of them all.a perfect transition as well in the album

[@17losttrout]

Agreed, but there is something rip stonking about the bass on Troglodyte.

[@rooftopsignals7313]

I feel better about going through my life knowing this band is out there

[@coreyjwingate]

Really hope the welder will be playing live on the upcoming United States tour.

[@terraneaux]

Yeah I was wondering about that lmao.

[@AnthonySt0ner]

Would you please be so kind to introduce your new member on the angle grinder? Sincerely, a Shrimptech Industries shareholder

[@payno6643]

I think i subconsciously willed this band to be created. I have needed this music my entire life and ive been stumbling around looking for it since I was a kid Hard driving bass riffs, horns, syths, amazing drum work. Hilariously tragic lyrics. "I had a small dog, such a small dog but i felt it was a large dog" Beautiful

[@juandanielcorrea4673]

Sparklehorse r.i.p mark

[@torm0]

If you like these you may also enjoy The Butthole Surfers. A 90s acid rock band with alot of variation too. Probably start with Electric Larry Land.

[@swampdweller4635]

Did you know That years ago All we had Was sticks and stones To make our food And build our homes We collected birds And we lived in holes And most of us lived in the trees We counted things at incredible speeds We lived a life of simplicity And eatin’ on bugs and little berries We climbed down from the trees And we learned to speak We lost all of the hair from our bodies Our ancestors were very weak The other chimps kicked 'em out of the trees And they were forced to learn how to speak In exchange for other important things But once on the ground we were exposed To lions and tigers and predators So we learned to speak to share our strategies On how to survive as naked monkeys We climbed down from the trees And we learned to speak We lost our detailed short-term memories But what's all of this got to do with me? Is there some sort of connection to my ADD Climbed down from the trees And we learned to speak We lost our detailed short-term memories But what's all of this got to do with me? Is there some sort of connection to my ADD We climbed down from the trees And learned to speak We lost all of our cognitive abilities We climbed down from the trees And learned to speak And we lost all of the hair from our bodies

its we collected berries* not birds :)

Absolutely love this song, you guys are crushing it.

[@carson5804]

Insane bass tone

[@markhedquist9597]

Oskar is one talented fucker. The ability to mimic welder, dog barks & voices through the sax is not lost one me. SHRIMPTECH through and through baby

[@Man_Ray78]

I love how Sebastian talks about anything with humor and how the band fusions any genre into their songs. I think those albums will last like Beck's Mellow Gold or Pixies Doolittle, but more fun.

[@Gemborina]

Just wow. For some reason this has brought up a load of emotion in me. What a song xx

[@sunshineroth9605]

Another excellent Shrimp Sesh! THE best band out there for sure, LOVE VB!

The guy welding at 3:05 is pure gold

Side note the actual Cognative Tradeoff hypothesis is fascinating.
