Description
With Year of the Ox, The Burning of Rome rockets you through the cosmos on a chaotic yet cathartic journey alongside a species resembling the amalgamation of Jello Biafra, David Bowie, Henry Rollins, and Mark Mothersbaugh at the controls. Navigating the trip is a hybrid specimen akin to Todd Rundgren and a Martian acting as your resident tour guide through the annals of rock, punk, and pop galaxies. It’s a spectacle not to miss!!
