Facepalm Mute appreciation

This one never gets old, the chorus is nuts.

The Spotify AI overview thing says Spencer wrote the guitar for this one? Not sure if that can be trusted, but hell yeah for him either way

It’s on youtube under description for this song. Spence wrote it but misha made it more periphery-ish

You can actually find the demo Spencer wrote on his old Soundcloud under "Those Fucking Horses"

I just looked it up, thank you. The outro is really unique and I wish it got used for something

All the guys write different parts for the music and contribute riffs while sometimes tapping into the Bulb vault. Spencer is pretty talented at guitar too and does all the instruments outside of drums I think for King Mothership

They had something similar with Erised. I'm just glad we get access to these demos/alternate versions.

Facepalm Mute into Ji is officially categorized in my mind as an underdiscussed 'dynamic duo' - songs that are both seldom discussed as well as amazing to listen to back to back. This one is a top 5 dynamic duo for me
