Decline, The – Flash Gordon Ramsay Street

2023 reissue of the Aussie band’s record. The album takes inspiration from subjects ranging from recipes for vegan buffalo wings, the property market vs. smashed avocados, and Zelda gaming tips, all the way to philosophical Marxist understandings of false consciousness. Pat Decline pins the main album themes down to “loss, moving on and letting go, identity, mortality, and friendship. There’s a lot of references to a bunch of our favorite things like The Legend of Zelda, food, the ocean, and the fun times we have had getting in a van and playing skate punk”.
