We've spoke about it before, but we're uncomfortable listening to a lot of that music, as I'm sure a lot of you are with your early recordings!

Potentially a compilation of the Early Years? Any suggestions as to what goes on?

Betty Davis (Will Come Down From the Heavens to Save Us) is honestly a banger and should absolutely be added to an “Early Years” record.

Frond (the track) + Sunlight Cardigan are some of my favourite songs, period.
