    "comment": "Featured Song of the Day, which you can read more about and download for free here: https://bit.ly/3vqHEx4 Otero War exists in two alternate universes: the first is a sci-fi dystopia helpfully described by Caveman on their website and illustrated by Marc Ericksen, the guy behind the cover of Mega Man 2 and, more importantly, Twitter cult favorite Bad Dudes. But that’s not the real story here. Like the two Caveman albums before it, Otero War could be an accessory to a generic and fictionalized network-tv retelling of \"indie rock in the 2010s.\" And as with the soundtracks from any season of \"Nashville,”\" \"Empire,\" or \"Vinyl,\" Otero War is a collection of interchangeable, time-stamped simulacra that’s enjoyable on a superficial level, but mostly exists for the greater discussion of \"who is this one based on?\" https://bit.ly/3OgDaBt",
