IMPOSSIBLE WEIGHT

Live at KEXP Volume 10
by Various Artists
supported by 7 fans who also own “Plaid Pants”
God I'm so glad there's organisations like NPR Tiny Desk, Audiotree, and chief among them all KEXP, to carry the torch of live studio sessions like the John Peel / BBC radio sessions of yesteryear.

I ***REALLY*** wish more full sessions would be commercially released, but if that's left to the bands themselves, then that's more than fair enough
