Future Days was the first song by the band I was genuinely embarrassed by.

That was Sirens for me. I still remember the first time I listened to that song, which was when the official video was posted by them on YouTube. After the video ended, I stood in disbelief a few minutes, thinking "This can't be real, this must be a joke, right?" And then the album came out, and... Oh, well, now I can listen to it and I'm fine with it, but if it were any other band...
The second embarrassing thing was the Retrograde video. I like the song, actually, and the video wouldn't even be that bad... If Greta T. wasn't on it.
I'm not Dev. But I suppose he's a cool dude since someone thinks I'm him.

Outside of the music, playing Oracle OpenWorld was a massive WTF moment for me. That was when it became clear to me that there was a price on their integrity. I mean, of all the tech firms... I'd understand it a bit if it was appearing at Salesforce Dreamforce, as Benioff does a lot of philanthropic work that I know would appeal to them (it certainly speaks to Neil Young, who features at many Dreamforce events in some capacity). But Oracle and Larry Ellison... jesus christ

Fuck Pilate

Happy when I’m cryin should be in that exact spot. It would balance perfectly with push me pull me on side b

They could’ve made the greatest album of all time had they just done that.
But noooo isn’t radio friendly enough.
