On the show this time, it's the futuristic rock drama of Guadalajara band Descartes a Kant.

When Guadalajara-based group Descartes A Kant created their most recent album, 2023’s After Destruction, they actually made something much bigger. They built an entire concept and universe in which humans struggle to remain human in the face of relentless simulated reality. Their music is post-punk meets indie rock with incredibly intricate electronics. And you’ll want to make sure you check out the video for this one at some point, too.

Recorded October 18, 2024

  3. Self-F / The Mess We've Made
