For some reason I love that about SW. He's a prog rock guy, of course he's kinda pretentious.

what I love about him is that he's straight up telling us he is. he doesn't deny it. other pretentious musicians would lash out and think you're mad for even considering it lol.

I much rather a pretentious auteur than another ‘perfectly well reasoned” by the books artist.

Nick isn’t mentioned but I hope he’s involved. He could bring the Stroboscopic Fennel.

The premise makes me think of the show From. A village outside of space and time. Not quite what’s in that show, but very similar isolated feeling.

I thought the same thing.

Hopefully the album is better than the show
