Gonna go legit try to like Abacab. Apparently my desire to **** on TH is greater than my desire to **** on Genesis.

Frownland’s Schoenberg-esque system of song cycles?

Well that didn't work. After the first song it's a sleeping pill with synths so awful that the 80s almost came back to life to start a zombie apocalypse. And that solo section in the title track can still go **** itself. Tried Selling England by the Pound again just to see if my opinion had changed, and how can one band be so lame? So. ****ing. Lame.

No, I know.

No - know - cow - now- blow - slow - puff - fluff - sock - cock - green eggs and ham.

Yeah, I can't say I'm into Abacab all that much either. Sorry, Trolls.

Did y’all see the Black Mirror where Trolls gets stuck in a Plug simulation and the only thing on his playlist is ABACAB?

Spoiler for spoilers:
and then he finds a Trout Mask Replica playlist and becomes obsessive over it after wanting a ABACABreak and never wants to leave the plug room.
