The entire new Microwave album is a trip.
Its title, taken from a conservative politician’s take on drugs in 1970, captures the band’s newfound liberated spirit, and its tracks play by no one’s rules but their own. Lyrically, Let’s Start Degeneracy is loaded with revelations, some of which came to Hardy after experiences with ayahuasca during a trip to Peru with Tito. As the pandemic wound down, the three members reconvened and found their way back to being Microwave again.
“This album is about letting go of attachments and behaviors that aren’t serving you and trying to shake off your programming and not be motivated by fear and guilt and shame,” says Hardy. “It’s about learning to be happy and to take care of yourself.”
