Microwave - Let's Start Degeneracy (CD)

Details: 2024 release from the Atlanta-based alt-rock band. The fourth full-length record from Atlanta's Microwave is a trip. It all begins with the misty synth strikes and cosmic transmission warbles of "Portals," before hazy, dripping-wet guitar chords settle in. The song, an adaptation of the traditional Christian hymn "Softly and Tenderly," is true to it's new name, as liminal and fleeting as it is gripping and emotional. It's an enormous, gentle, enveloping introduction to what will be explored: life and death, happiness and freedom, the real and unreal.
