Don’t you hate it when someone just as old as you says something wiser than anything you’ve probably ever said?

http://gty.im/453052774 Cosmic punk-infatuated indie electronic music, intoxicated with love, drugs, and heavy synths, Phantogram is the quintessential band for a chaotic relationship. You know that couple that’s always breaking up but always ends up finding their way back to each other, only to fight more in an explosive and ardent manner you thought was only […]
