Personally, I definitely haven't had enough of experts yet. My patience is wearing thin with "experts" though. I'm pointing the finger at myself as much as anyone else here. I'm sure I've been guilty of skimming the facts of an issue and then running my mouth when I should sit down and listen.
Recorded remotely in lockdown 2020/2021.
lyrics
(You've been giving too much airtime)
You've been giving too much airtime
To speculation, pantomime
And fabricated timelines
Telling both sides of the story
Can't mean lending weight to liars, surely?
Stop talking, start learning
Maybe the tide is turning
Hey, hey, well the fear's got nothing left for me
Hey, hey, raise a fist against iniquity
(You've been staring through the prism)
You've been staring through the prism
Of poorly argued "wisdom"
And baseless reductionism
If everyone has to add their voice
Then all that we're left with is white noise
Stop talking, start learning
Maybe the tide is turning
Hey, hey, well the fear's got nothing left for me
Hey, hey, raise a fist against iniquity
Back up
If everyone has to add their voice
Then all we're left with is white noise
Stop talking, start learning
Maybe the tide is turning
Hey, hey, well the fear's got nothing left for me
Hey, hey, raise a fist against iniquity
Stop talking, start learning
Maybe the bridge is burning
Hey, hey, well the fear's got nothing left for me
Hey, hey, raise a fist against iniquity

The new punk/ska album from Call Me Malcolm hits all the right spots for me. It's lyrically and musically wonderful and I love it when an album is so much more than just a collection of tracks. pedestrian zero
Good golly miss molly this EP rocks. This debut release from the Sprinkle brothers new band quickly became a firm favourite of mine and hopefully you'll agree with me. pedestrian zero
I always enjoy a good instrumental album and the guys from Survive have created some beautiful music for the Stranger Things series. How do you make music that is both modern and nostalgic?! pedestrian zero
Released in 2001, “The Convincer” is a gentle gem in the Nick Lowe catalog; an anniversary edition provides opportunity for rediscovery. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 20, 2021
