13 Blues for Thirteen Moons by Thee Silver Mt. Zion... with Closer

This week we are joined by Griffin Irvine and Matthew Van Asselt of the band Closer. They are here to discuss the 2008 album, 13 Blues for Thirteen Moons by Thee Silver Mt. Zion Memorial Orchestra & Tra La La Band. We talk about whether this album is punk, gas shortages, love languages, subtle merch variants, and singing in the sewers of Austin, Texas.
