Does the bird fly over your head? back in September 2020, but now it s available from zora.co in NFT form.
A message accompanying the product reads: Third album by the band I share with Matthew E. Duffy Originally released in September 2020. Belave is now officially the first band to release and album as an NFT, beating out Kings of Leon by ~36 hours. Claims to the contrary are false.
An NFT is a unique cryptographic token that uses blockchain technology to verify its uniqueness and authenticity; it can therefore be owned rather than simply duplicated or exchanged. Musicians have recently gotten in on the trend, with artists like Grimes, Jacques Greene and, of course, Kings of Leon releasing NFTs.

1. Gebrasy – “Where’d You Wanna Go?”
Infuriated that Cosmic Bride and Sunday Afternoon failed to qualify from heat two, I managed to miss the gem that is Gebrasy’s “Where’d You Wanna Go?” until its semi-final performance. There, it was clear to me that the soulful mid-tempo track must win this national final. By winning the semi comfortably, it took a massive step there. The song has a consistent metaphor that beautifully wraps a heartbreaking story together. It reminds me a little bit of Aksel’s “Looking Back” in the sense that the car drive motif paints the plotline, and I’d dare say its in the same lyrical quality tier. Hopefully this stands a chance against The Mighty Roop.
