Smalks un niansēts džezroks no @alexskolnick.bsky.social noteikti ir atzīmēšanas vērts manā šī gada izvēļu sarakstā. Es jau kādu laiku AST albumus gaidu vairāk par Testament.

Speaking of timely, can we convince Testament to thrash this up and release this as a single? The lyrics are <chef kiss>
Today seems as good a day as any to “release” the Epstein Files song. Sorry, couldn’t help myself 🤷🏻♂️
