Description
Zen-punk mixtape meditations from iconic Gen X Everyman Lloyd Dobler. Think Ram Dass by way of Rage Against the Machine, filtered through a VHS tape of Say Anything left to melt on the dashboard of American decline.
Imagine Lloyd Dobler from Say Anything as a middle-aged dissident: still romantic, still defiant, and thumbing through the Tao Te Ching to turn ancient philosophy into an anti-fascist dharma mixtape for the Trump 2.0 era; on a mission to craft a field guide for late-stage everything.
