Psychic Hearts

Thurston Moore ·1995

"I've heard that and more, Psychic Hearts, yes. This record is awesome, one because at one point in time one of the lines is he's talking about driving around in the Batmobile and he's dead serious about it. Also the last track on the record is called LG for all the dead rock stars and it's probably the greatest guitar tone of all time."
