What do Indigo children, class structures, and science fiction all have to do with one another? Perhaps Destin and Drew can elucidate as they wrangle yet another concept album. But not just any concept album. The hosts introduce their audience to one of the most ambitious outfits in progressive rock today. On an initial playthrough, The Dear Hunter's Antimai draws listeners with memorable melodies, rhythmic punctuation, and futuristic synthesizers resulting in a sound akin to space funk. One will pick up bits of lore and story on each successive playthrough to be enchanted by impressive world building and intrigued by ties to other albums in the band's catalog. After a decade of telling one continuous narrative spanning across five albums or "Acts", The Dear Hunter embarks on a new sci-fi saga starting with an overview of an isolated, dystopian city typified by wealth inequality, social hierarchy, and organic scarcity. Destin and Drew get a little carried away as they poke and prod every nook and cranny of this rich musical and lyrical landscape, but one will forgive their verbosity after hearing all that Antimai has to offer.
