Very nice, mr dave. I expect nothing less than a description like this from you. You're the first person I've talked to in awhile that also listens to Tomahawk. They're not something I listen to on a regular anymore, but I revisit their self-titled the most out of the three releases.
Mit Gas isn't as bad as you're making it out to be, though, I don't think. Quite the transition into
Anonymous, which was exactly what I wasn't expecting from them. You're right, though. They've got a vibe about them that has always had me wondering when they'll be done. I look forward to more stuff, but Mike Patton seems to juggle so much ****, I wonder if a fourth album will be any good. I'm fond of the number 3, anyway.
