sup peoples? been on a bit of a sparklehorse kick as of late for no other reason except he, mark linkous was awesome. one song that always creeps me out a bit when it comes on is “sunshine” off good morning spider. at the end of the song is a portion of a voicemail left by vic chesnutt while mark was in the hospital many years ago. while it was mildly creepy back when the record was released, its even more eery now considering everything that has happened. i cant recommend the entire sparklehorse enough.
