“One of my favorite parts of our podcast was Storfer and I’s complete mystification about the relevance, appreciation, and cultish gravitation around meat-and-potatoes indie-rockers The Wrens. Bosman was utterly enraged while we made Maybach Music jokes. Such is life. Obviously I knew who the Wrens were, it just took me more than a second, something total taboo in Bosman’s demographic. It’s funny, we all have incredibly subjective perceptions of vitality and importance in a field as minor as independent music. Even within a cabal of similarly-minded writers. If the Wrens do finally release that long-awaited record, a lot of people will be very happy, but at such a small scale it’ll barely register a blip on the national consciousness. I suppose whether or not that’s motivation enough is up to the artist.” - Luke Winkie (@Luke_Winkie)
