I’m really proud to have played guitar on this new
@shilparayofficial record. It’s been cooking since long before the pandemic and it’s high time for it to venture out into the world on its own. It’s a heavy record in a lot of ways, thematically and sonically, but I think the weight is tempered by melody and plenty of humor - though pitch black and sardonic. But hey I’m not a reviewer man I just play guitar. I hope you give it a spin. 📀🧨💿🔪
