    A track of Black Flower's 2018 EP, Intermediate State. Someone shared this with me post /r/listentothis's 2017 best-of, and it's a shoe-in for next year's list (@Amarok, we doin' that here? :p)...

        I think I listened to that shortly after I first heard this EP -- my memory is hazy, but I seem to remember enjoying it a lot, for instance this track is a pretty straight up Multatu rip-off...
