Wow I love the more old-school twoism style. When did we decide to modernize?

A capture from time to salivate over?
A smidgen more to whet those appetites?

Wow. Almost forgot twoism used to look like that.
IIRC I was the one who recommended mirroring that image of the bros next to the water that was at the bottom of the page. We were looking for a little symmetry and balance.

They sound closer to any other post-punk band from Sammystown onwards, Stan's bizarre-o lyrics and Joe's crazy percussion really brought a lot to the table for them and made them stand out way more. Those songs you recommended are indeed pretty good though, I've got a soft spot for Big City as well.
Big thanks for recommending Plan 9 From Las Vegas too by the way, I'm only 2 tracks in but this is sounding like exactly my type of thing so far! I think I even like it better than Andy-era WoV already lmao
Something tells me BoC would probably dig this too
. Todd in the shadows did an overview of the band (probably the most public attention they've gotten since then) and I don't think he even named any member other than Stan

It feels like things are both speeding up and slowing down at the same time. The Twitter likes are definitely not as alarming as they used to be, they've been so direct with us that a lot of us have finally embraced the fact they have all but confirmed an album, so now we wait.
I feel like I'm not driven to look for hidden meanings or clues anymore, even Stargate isn't on my mind at this point. The waiting game is now the way it was before there was any activity, just pure, bland, boring waiting...

That's more like it!
Don't even think about a new interview surfacing next Friday,followed by an album release a month later and then some very very private live playing of said album in the most beautiful places to the smallest audiences imaginable
...it's fun to dream
