Cheers, Magnet. Appreciate the decades (!!) of support.
MAGNET Exclusive: @joepernice.bsky.social goes track by track on “Chappaquiddick Skyline” reissue (New West). “Money was tight, and studio time was expensive. There was no time to fuck around … A theme of the record was small-dollar special effects.” Check it out: magnetmagazine.com/2025/01/29/m...
