      Only someone who doesn't know his early work from 2009-2013 can say this is his Kid A album. This statement is a bit off but I'm glad he went a little bit more experimental again.

      @@sovka8394 i dont feel as though it is kid A esque in the sense of the complete departure from previous records which Kid A was for Radiohead, at the same time though, I feel Kid A inspirations sonically all over this record (this could be said for masses of music released by all sorts of artists since 2000)

Apple Music…this isn’t, in my worthless opinion, the best way to produce interviews…call me wild but I would prefer listening to an interview that removed all the annoying bits and was just a solid, great interview, preferably one I’m which the host allowed the guest to finish a thought or not be interrupted.

    First things first: JB, what a guy, what a gift to music and society. His journey is mesmeric and fascinating.
    Now, the persistent and seemingly fashionable Zane slander… I have to wade in as I see it after every interview - so boringly predictable.
    And clearly not the general consensus given his platform, standing, and relationship with the artists, speaking of whom obviously have nothing but mutual respect for his opinions and hardly a hint of annoyance at his ‘antics’.
    Zane’s passion for music and creative expression make him the person he is, and I for one just wanna put it out there that there’s no other ‘interviewer’ (fan) I’d rather be a fly on the wall for to enjoy his unique ability to put at ease and engage with my favourite musicians.
    Just wanted to get that one off my chest. 😂 For myself and I’m sure the many others out there who feel a bit exhausted by the lame, tedious, perennial sneering… even if I know it will continue regardless (sadly).
    If he’s not for you folks, go watch JB or whoever talk to someone else, yeah? 😉
