Thrashy new year, peeps! Here's my first post for 2025.
This band was truly unique and way ahead of their time! Proggy and technical, but also bravely emotionally vulnerable with some of their more wave-laced parts.
They re-recorded their first two albums, and did a great job. YouTube link is for the original 1990 version, Bandcamp is the re-recording so you can compare ;)

Why I will stop using and posting Spotify links: Article 1 and Article 2
Lossless?? Ohhhshit! Looks like that'll be my priority, cant wait to check it out!
Here's this post's track on Tidal: https://tidal.com/track/117746075?u
Good thing to note is there doesnt seem to be any bullshit trackers like Shodify. The "?u" at the end makes it a universal link meaning you can open it it anywhere, but if you removed the ?u it becomes Tidal only.
Tidal seems to be subscription only, but they offer 1 month trial free for first time sign ups. Price is $11.99 usd. Fantastic quality though, goddamn.
How did you browse the music? Do you create an account first to find the song? I wanna see what's on there.
Yea I created the account first since I figured I was gonna try it out anyway, started the trial and after that, it asked me to pick at least three artists to follow. Saw a whole bunch of stuff, including the one I uploaded last night, and figured it was good enough. Will definitely check it out more this afternoon and even look at the desktop app.
Edit: we should probably take this to dms lol dont wanna spam poor flabbergast's notifications anymore than we already have xD
