js_thrillToday's Song: "Thanks for the Dress"
The first version I loaded up on youtube had weird sound artifacts at the start, but then I found a different version, which also had them, and I guess that's just how it is supposed to be. The annotations describe how it is inspired by and drawn from the Euripedes play Medea, and how Darnielle can't really get back into the mindset he had when he wrote it. I'm sure there is a lot to say about it as a piece of musical experimentation, but it just really isn't for me.
