Episode 20.5

Well, I decided to drop another “surprise” episode to break up the monotony of my current day-to-day and hopefully yours. We’ve entered year two of Life in Quarantine if you hadn’t noticed and most social gatherings are still largely taboo. It being my birthday shortly I would normally be slamming beers and belting out DLR at some hellhole karaoke bar. Alas, it will wait another year.

In lieu of such debauchery, I offer you, imaginary reader/listener, an extra mix for the month of nothing but cover songs. I have sworn off including covers in Anxiety Eternal episodes since they’re pretty LCD; but fuck it, it’s time for dumb fun.

I’ll be back the first Wednesday next month as usual with a new, canonical episode.

The artists and their respective tracks are as follows, with each start time noted in the parentheses after each track:
