Our Take

Ah, the latest offering from the ever-eclectic Flat Earth Society, "Friends Are Temporary. Ego Is Forever." is a deliciously bizarre journey through the twisted minds of Belgium's finest avant-garde ensemble.

From the opening track, "Egomania," you know you're in for a wild ride. The jazzy horns, erratic time signatures, and off-kilter vocals all come together to create a cacophony of sound that somehow works in the most wonderfully weird way possible.

On "Acid Police," the band takes the listener on a psychedelic trip through a world where the rules of physics no longer apply. The frenetic guitar riffs, haunting vocals, and trippy synths all blend together to create a mind-bending experience that is equal parts terrifying and exhilarating.

But it's not all chaos and madness on this album. Tracks like "Friendship Bracelet" and "Hug Me Till I Smother" showcase Flat Earth Society's ability to create beautiful, introspective moments amidst the chaos. The delicate melodies, heartfelt lyrics, and soulful performances all come together to create a sense of intimacy that is both comforting and unsettling.

Overall, "Friends Are Temporary. Ego Is Forever." is a masterclass in avant-garde music. It's weird, it's wonderful, and it's unlike anything you've ever heard before. So grab your tinfoil hat, buckle up, and prepare to be enchanted by the musical madness that is Flat Earth Society. Trust us, you won't regret it.
