I just gave them a quick scan. It's not the most accurate RIYL. Pretty decent ep though

Thanks for listening! I know the Dangerous Summer especially is a stretch for RIYL, but I'm pretty bad at picking other bands that sound like us. Who would you say we sound like?

Enjoying the rutabega will also check out the caulfield cult

+1. The Rutabega is really good.

Snag the Lie Captive album, its good shit

The Caulfield Cult's RIYL has me interested.

Did not realize they are from Singapore. That's pretty damn cool.

Would love to hear what people think about True Facts.

Checking out Dear Kavalier.

True Facts by DWHB is an awesome record. Fans of Childish Gambino or Drake should definitely check it out, and I'm not saying that because I've already heard the record. ;D
