It’s a sad thing to hear of when a band has….. disbanded. Whether I’ve followed them for a long time (Daft Punk, The Preatures) or only just discovered them (sadly, there seem to be many examples of this particular instance), it’s always jarring and melancholic to see the past tense used on their Wikipedia page. There’s still so much joy to be had in the seemingly infinite world created by their music, and seeing new projects manifest as the individual artists go their own ways is always a joy, but an album made with the same dynamic of the past very rarely ever comes about again (unless the band gets back together). The result is a set series of music released under a name that’s rooted in the past; but creativity and memories are timeless, right? I don’t consider it ‘living in the past’ or anything. It’s just a fundamental part of my life that, like everything else in life, was subject to change. Difference here is that I choose not to forget all the good that I’ve had the fulfilment of experiencing.
