Friday Tyrant - Get in the Dreamvan with Blake Butler
I think in the future, people will point to his new book and say, "Look, look, this is when everything started to become really great/fucked up."
Friday Tyrant – Lagoon Fever
I mentioned Youth Lagoon at a party the other night and a girl screamed in my face.
