I liked the urban-legend conceit because I thought it was a nice fake-out. You think it's going to be one thing but it ends up being something much bigger and weirder.

I've never really gotten into Oasis, and that's probably mostly because of the Gallagher brothers, but there are bands I really like who draw from them.

His feature debut, Absentia, is an all-time favorite of mine.

In my experience, social media platforms of any stripe are where nuance goes to die and performative outrage sprouts out of its corpse.

I think Hicks had good chops - timing, delivery, etc. - but yeah a lot of his material didn't age well and I suspect he would have been Me-Too'd or outright arrested sooner rather than later.
