patrick poured his blood, sweat, tears, heart, and soul (no pun intended) into soul punk and its so OBVIOUS when you listen to it like not to get corny but his spirit just Radiates through the music and the fact that it was so poorly received by fob fans at the time is never going to fail to piss me off bc he was so excited to share it with everyone and y’all showed up specifically to boo him and tell him how much u hated it and wished he was doing something different (read: being anyone besides His True Self) that he still to this day feels bittersweet about it when he should feel nothing but the utmost pride and accomplishment!!!!!!!!!!! not to mention its a straight up musical masterpiece from start to finish!!!!
to take it a step further truant wave is either shit on or ignored entirely and he worked his ASS off to put something out FOR US because soul punk wasnt ready yet and that’s what he got!!!! we are talking about the sweetest guy in the universe a guy who gave a fan money out of his OWN WALLET because she said she didnt like it!!!! truant wave/soul punk erasure and disrespect will NOT stand in this home!!!!!
