I’ve liked but not loved the previous SML albums (I’m getting there, but extended experimental wonkiness is still hit or miss for me) but the new album is mesmerizing. Feel like they’ve achieved a new form with it intlanthem.bandcamp.com/album/sponta...

A little tardy but I did my first movie review AND my first piece for Paste writing about the Fishmans documentary, a sprawling and deeply reverential film that told me more about the band than I thought possible www.pastemagazine.com/music/fishma...
