The Brothers Martin (album)
The Brothers Martin is the self-titled debut of The Brothers Martin, a band consistent of brothers Ronnie and Jason Martin, founders of Joy Electric and Starflyer 59, respectively. It is the brothers' first collaborative effort since 1991's Dance House Children and somewhat of an amalgamation of both artists' musical influences.[3]

gollark: Consider conspiracy theories. They are very stupid. They aren't very good for you to hold, as they may make you increasingly wrong about things. Yet they spread well.
gollark: I'm not convinced that the "if it alone leads to the development of modern science" thing is true, and I still don't agree regardless of that.
gollark: In any case, "spreads better than competitors" doesn't make it "better" in some way *for you to hold*.
gollark: I'm not very knowledgeable on the history, but I doubt what happened was a historical certainty. I think one pivotal thing was one of the emperors converting, and without that it might never have taken over.
gollark: Historical coincidence, better memetics, possibly monotheism making it easier to justify wiping out of competing beliefs, I guess?
