The Fresh & Onlys

The Fresh & Onlys are an American rock band. They were formed in San Francisco, California, United States, in 2008 by Tim Cohen of Black Fiction, bassist Shayde Sartin and guitarist Wymond Miles. A year later they recruited drummer Kyle Gibson.[1] They are a key band in what has been described as San Francisco's "new garage rock" movement,[2] but their sound is equally aligned with pastoral psychedelia, brooding new wave, western twang, and jangly literate 1980s guitar pop.

gollark: More seriously, 5G isn't *just* the mmWave thing with terrible range, IIRC it can use existing spectrum a bit better.
gollark: I use a 100km Ethernet cable with my phone, it works fine. I don't understand people's obsession with "wireless".
gollark: Also generally pointless and overhyped in my opinion.
gollark: Discworld? There are 41 of those books. They're very good, mostly.
gollark: They also sealed it to cover up the flatness of the Earth.
