The gang is finally all back and in good health once again! We spent some time discussing what we missed while we were gone (i.e the Grammys, Oscars, etc) before diving into our picks this episodeAndrew - Try Again by Ovrkast.Aidan - Silver Tongue by TORRESJagan - Hot Pink by Doja CatClassic Pick (Jagan): Colors by Between the Buried and MeOther discussed topics, with links:Tyler the Creator's performance of "EARFQUAKE" and "NEW MAGIC WAND" for The Grammys. Ovrkast. doing production for "EL TORO COMBO MEAL"Doja Cat's track "Tia Tamera" with Rico Nasty being an absolute must listen.Loudwire's retrospective for Between the Buried and Me's Colors does an excellent job capturing the importance and context behind the album.  CORRECTION: Aidan is also very wrong about thinking the same vocalist was on "Prequel to the Sequel" and "Swim to the Moon". "Prequel to the Sequel" has guest vocals from Adam Fisher of Fear Before the March of Flames, while "Swim to the Moon" has guest vocals from Chuck Johnson.
