January is certainly serving up some sumptuous fruits, and this is another strong contender for my AOTY 2024.

The song writing is sublime, the execution flawless, and the urge to play the whole thing over again is inescapable.
This genre changeling of a band with their kaleidoscope range of styles are a breath of fresh air. It is only 2 weeks into the new year, and I do believe I am looking at an early contender for my album of the year.
