Flex Your Head: The Blood Brothers - 'Burn, Piano Island, Burn' • Bad Copy

On episode 21 of the Flex Your Head special episodes, host Jason Schreurs welcomes back his friend Donald Kennedy. Together, they try to make sense of The Blood Brothers‘ Burn, Piano Island, Burn. This truly bizarre album was poised for something big, yet was too unapproachable and downright oddball to be appreciated by “normal” people. Good thing we’re not normal because this album is a classic in all it’s snotty, off-kilter weirdo-ness.
