I have seen LS dunes live twice and while I love the record, I was not a fan of their live show.. Green seems OFF onstage. Hope he is doing okay.

^ he’s seemed off in general to me lately even in their videos. It makes me worried for him

I don't want to jump the gun or accuse or idk but I wanna know how the fuck the rest of LS Dunes is okay with Anthony looking strung out, has made me question the character of some musicians I really love tbh

It honestly made me a bit sick, I was at a festival so I actually just left to watch a different band halfway through.



The only other time I have felt uncomfortable like that from an artist was a very drunk connor oberst ranting, slurring words and talking shit to his band members in between songs.

Yeah that would make me feel the same. I stopped watching their music vids for the same reason. Felt so bad watching Anthony look so bad

Okay so yeah I watched a live video and it was downright depressing, and EXTREMELY obvious Anthony is fucked up. Have lost so much respect for the other dudes in L.S. Dunes

so i just saw him do a solo in NJ and he was definitely not on anything. was just a normal guy doing an acoustic show. he was especially open with talking about his addiction too so idk, not saying i'm an expert and obviously one night doesnt mean anything



i hope he gets help if he's still going through it but idk, i feel like for dunes, they're all in their 40s or whatever and with kids, I'd like to think they wouldn't be condoning that or worse enabling

Well To be honest Its prob a day by day thing. Not to mention sometimes he could be in withdrawal when he looks so bad. So yeah who knows. Awful either way though

Yeah, I am not saying he is still on anything.. he just makes me uncomfortable and looks like he is really forcing things.



Doesn't seem like he is firing on all cylinders from what i have seen of him live. Withdrawals/just going through it could be it.

Damn. Hopefully exhaustion from touring. But I wasn’t there and haven’t seen the videos.

Coming from a guy who struggled with drugs and alcohol for 30 years (started early), I hope he’s ok. But I also know all too well how easily you can just give in, then the switch is flipped and it becomes a really serious, difficult struggle to get back. I think you only truly understand if you’ve been there, as it’s almost otherworldly how deep this shit can take hold if you’re an addict or alcoholic.

Didn’t notice they had combined both EPs on Spotify but I’m glad they did. I remember really liking both but I’m gonna relisten. Surprised that the second EP hasn’t even been reviewed!

How do others feel about this album/eps in comparison to their other work?

Also, I fucking LOVE that LS Dunes record. Really blew me away went it came out, didn’t leave my “CD player” (as they used to say) for a good month or two.

Absolutely. That’s when it’s been most noticeable to others in my experience. Because if you’re an addict constantly taking something, your tolerance goes up and you largely just seem like “yourself” (aside from especially crazy amounts/combinations, or just emotional outbursts—those tend to be worse if you’re an alcoholic).

@Larkin I honestly think these 2 EPs are the peak of Circa, it's incredible how in sync everyone is considering all of the experimentation, and the highs are astronomical and some of their most affecting stuff lyrically and vocally

Yeah I remember really liking them, but for some reason didn’t listen to them many times (pretty sure this came out in one of my peak addiction times, I was drinking so much I was spitting up blood and waking up in the middle of the night to chug some vodka. So, things kindof came and went for me in a haze. I’m gonna dive a little deeper though. I remember buzzhenge being phenomenal.

Worth diving in more for sure Larkin, these eps are great and unique in their discog! Hope you’re doing better, that sounds like an awful situation to find yourself in
