@Matt STP is one of the headliners on my Grunge playlist lol.

@EdH wowzers, man. I hadn't heard of this at all, and was totally unprepared for that. Definite talent there. Kind of a hard listen, but that's good art right there.

[EdH]

@WhiskeySandwich Good point! Maybe should have issued a trigger warning, it hits hard!

[Giles]

Thank you @EdH - Will listen to more....

[WhiskeySandwich]

@EdH Nope, I like being surprised like that. I was glued to it the whole time. Thanks for sharing.

@EdH thanks for posting this. I never would have found it on my own and it’s a powerful piece. I’ll be thinking about it for quite a while.

Incredible voice and storytelling here, and heartbreaking. worth a listen (i have 100x or more from)

@EdH "Hi Ren" is a really rare gem of a song. It's unforgettable like when I first heard "I'm Not Racist" by Joyner Lucas a few years back.

[EdH]

In case anyone is wondering I first heard abour Ren from Justin Hawkins (the lead man from The Darkness). I've been following his YT channel for the last couple of years. It's been great for music discovery. He does these 10-15 minute reaction videos to tracks new and old. Worth a follow for all things rock.

@EdH Thank you so much. I'm loving Justin on YT, thoroughly entertaining....

@EdH I’ve seen a couple of news articles about Ren recently but assumed his music wasn’t my sort of thing. I was so wrong - I can’t remember the last time I reacted so strongly to new music. Thanks for sharing!

@goosehd Whenever I was doing a sound check and the sound man would ask me to play the whole kit,I would always play the beat from this song.

[goosehd]

@Jett129 It’s beautiful, powerful, and hits like a freight train

[Jett129]

@goosehd In my opinion the single best drum intro EVER!

Johnny sharing stories and riffs with his champagne sparkle Jaguar last night in LA.

@EdH wow. That is powerful. I listened to it 3 days ago and still can’t get it out of my head.
