A spontaneous autobiographical disclosure. A free-form slo-mo listening party. A song a day. Yours to enjoy.

Anthem of the moonshot
Serendipity! The 40th anniversary of the moon landing happens on the day that I decide to post a song from the Anthem of the Moon album. A coincidence on one level, but I think this song is actually a rather earthbound affair. No one's gonna question Oneida's brain-frying, psychedelic bona fides, but this is less the sound of moonwalking and more like pulsing lunar prayer chants from deep in our terrestrial home. I love them steadily with each ambitious release, but this one has taken on the patina of a genuine classic.
We are not in it for the money. Songblague runs on communitarian values, love of music, and a dash of vanity. If you like what you're hearing, please purchase it from one of the remaining retailers who would like to sell it to you.
