Your tripping – The Queers Well it’s to the point. And it’s a confronting thing, putting this album on for the first time, knowing only the Queers’ sweet love songs and hearing this vitriol. It’s so direct as well that it’s obviously about someone, but these years of wondering have yielded nothing. Some no one [...]
