Noise Pop Diary: SML cooked at SFJAZZ-all sauce, no Butterss - 48 hills

They posited about thematic structures, which somehow got agreed upon, live in the moment through a collective groupthink. Right there on stage. No words spoken, just an exchange of bizarrely intense looks. Ranging from 'we're almost there' to 'don't you dare.' That's trust, people.
