    OK I created a theory/story, stick with me here.

    Upside Down Flowers the album IS the "last transmission from the Island Radio" that's referred to in the song of the same name from Zombies on Broadway. In Island Radio, similar or the same vocal effects are used in the chorus of the song as with the majority of UDF. Upside Down Flowers sounds like an island record, but transmitting through an old radio, hense the static-y vocal effects.

    Probably makes no sense, but I'm rolling with it

    Saw him perform live last night, and it was not at all disappointing. Got to hear “Watch the Sky” and “She Paints Me Blue,” and all the new jams sound spectacular. The stage setup was also dope as fuck, and thank god everything arrived — Andrew mentioned they almost didn’t make it, so very happy the crew helped get it all together for an amazing show.

    Wondering how much this sold first week in comparison to Self-titled and Zombies, think that was 15k, anyone know? And man, this record has had some staying power, so good. I love all and everything Andrew.

    Warner seems to be putting random b-sides up on Spotify. They did this with the Academy Is... a few months back, too.

    Apparently there's an Amazon Originals Andrew McMahon cover of "Slow Burn" by Kacey Musgraves out today?
