I'm having a real case of recency bias with the band Geese. Their new album got recommended to me, I was getting them confused with the band Goose that has also recently put out an album, then they were talked about on a podcast I listen to, then I did listen to them, then I saw they're playing at the Croxton next year, and now Thornbury Records got the new album in stock.

I've been walking around muttering 'There's a bomb in my car' to myself the last couple of days. It's the sort of song lyric I'd put on Facebook with zero context back in 2009 and get no interactions.

I'm suddenly transported to 2009 where I would in fact post song lyrics without context ๐Ÿ‘€๐Ÿ˜‚
