I’m going to see them next month and haven’t been this hyped about an event in a long time. Maybe I’m becoming an old man but bands that give me this kind of energy just seem fewer and farther between.

Also they grew on me over a long time. I remember listening to Joy as an Act of Resistance not long after it came out, thinking it was good but nothing special. Now it’s one of my favorite albums in recent years, though I also love seeing how they’re evolving and expanding into other genres now.
