dark slow-paced

Probably should have known a Less Than Zero - American Psycho mash-up was always going to be where BEE’s journey took us. It’s absolutely too long, it’s definitely not for the faint of heart, and if you tired of his long lists of 80s brands / music years ago, he’s still doing that, but I’m still here for his drugged out nihilist dreamscape when he’s making it work. Definitely glad he took time from hosting his wretch podcast for this.
