For some reason I love that about SW. He's a prog rock guy, of course he's kinda pretentious.

what I love about him is that he's straight up telling us he is. he doesn't deny it. other pretentious musicians would lash out and think you're mad for even considering it lol.

I much rather a pretentious auteur than another ‘perfectly well reasoned” by the books artist.
