A Boot For Every Bane, by Animal, Surrender! 5 track album

Finally getting around to checking outβ€”and really diggingβ€”the new one from @ejrc.bsky.social label-mates (and old pals @fretlesspeter.bsky.social & Rob Smith), Animal, Surrender! If you Google the name without adding "band," you'll also get a lot of local humane society info that may be relevant:

After a brief delay, you can find my new album on all streaming platforms except for Spotify because we hate Spotify now. Please listen to it. Also I think Buddyhead should start posting the phone numbers of shitty people again like they did back in the day. Start with Daniel Ek

One Hundredfold Now in This Age, by Jeff Tobias 10 track album

Jeff Tobias has one that sorta reminds me of Cloud Becomes Your Hand, like there's some proggy/goofy/brisk energy that animates this. It speaks clearly to the shittiness of this current moment. And there's a variety of modes here, some real pillowy portions, some heady zones too. It's excellent!

My new album is out today. You can stream it on Bandcamp and its on its way to the other streamers too. Give it a listen. I'm celebrating by going to the spot I reference on track three who have no idea they're immortalized in song as "the atonal bagel place" jefftobias.bandcamp.com/album/one-hu...

ICE recruitment ads have been all over streaming services. Artists do not want the places where people find and listen to our work to promote ICE, a racist, corrupt group who kidnap and disappear innocent people. Why the fuck is Spotify running ICE ads?

Tonight at band practice @sam-morrison.bsky.social heard a drummer in another room playing the groove from Untitled (How Does It Feel) and just immediately played the keyboard part straight off the dome. He didn't even know D'Angelo had died. The man's music is permanently in our shared ether.

It's maddening: Twitter remains populated by some of the strongest posters dead-ending among the blue-checked sycophants, and Bluesky can't seem to conjure even half of the energy or community that Twitter had ten years ago. The solution is clear: I will start my own social media website

Yeah his last book was too cranky to enjoy, but he had an essay in The Psychic Soviet about DJing and cultural reproduction that definitely raised up a lot of the points made in that vid, that's all
