Phil's a brave dude, and I hope that this exercise has helped him.
I never met him, but I did meet Wolf Colonel several times who dubbed a cassette of Kool Keith songs off of me and passed it along to Phil and I was told that Phil loved it haha.
Speaking of Microphones, I actually have one of those limited Blood LP's that I've been considering selling for years. As you all know I'm not a vinyl collector.

I think The Glow pt. 2 is one of the few albums that actually deserves its hype, and didn't deserve the back-peddling on the hype that came after. It really is as good, and possibly better, than Pitchfork and other said it was.
Fuck, it's emotionally heavy as fuck too, but I think it's better than In the Aeroplane Over the Sea. Maybe it's just my Pacific Northwest bias, but I'm pretty sure it's not and that I'm right.
