Incoming! Floating Heads

This is wonderful.

Introduced one of my kids to Jeff Buckley tonight. Watching her jaw drop and stay that way…

Well, let’s just say, this was a great moment in parenting.

My students are doing the work for me. Full context: this kid asks me what my song of the day is. Now she’s recording it for all of my classes to see. (Further context: She has my class at the end of the day so, this will be for tomorrow.)

Near-Death Travel Services, by Deadguy 11 track album

New Deadguy ! My heart is full. deadguy666.bandcamp.com/album/near-d...

Grateful I’m finally putting eyes on this #kavehakbar #martyr

This fella turned 30 a couple of days go. I remember copping it on release day back in junior year of high school. Bumping this at full volume in my first car is a solid core memory. Happy belated, big guy.

Criminally Forgotten Albums | Day 10:
Sunn O))) - Monoliths & Dimensions

My favorite Sunn record. I saw them at the Brooklyn Masonic Temple for this release and to this date I’ve never experienced a louder show. Mouth closed and my throat was vibrating. Truly apocalyptic.

#SunnO))) #sunn

Ooh wee!. That new-new showed up today.

Criminally Forgotten Albums | Day 09:
Jackie O Motherfucker - Fig. 5

Some patience required | Beautifully haunting experimental joy.

Criminally Forgotten Albums | Day 08:
108 - Threefold Misery

This album carries with it a recklessness that blurs my mind with the most beautiful type of chaos.

Found in my classroom | The world needs more of this:

Criminally Forgotten Albums | Day 07:
These Arms are Snakes/Harkonen - Like a Virgin

So fucking epic! 2 songs from each band - Ping pong back and forth - then one collabo-jam at the end. It’s just like swimming in that 2000s Tacoma sound.
#thesearmsaresnakes #harkonen #hydrahead #greatestlabel

We’ll call this a scarf.

Old Head.

Give no energy to narcissists. Well, maybe a firm thumbs-down and then walk away.

Peace.

I know! I know! Apostrophe S. I’m a bad man.

Criminally Forgotten Albums | Day 06:
Jackie McLean - New and Old Gospel

This is the album that made me start listening to jazz. Ornette Colman plays TRUMPET on it! Not the sax! That’s the most jazz shit I’ve ever heard. Its wild.

#jackiemclean #ornettecoleman

We’re coming. Well only be able to stay do a hot minute, then we gotta get to Coraline’s play. Can’t wait to see you, homie!

Criminally Forgotten Albums | Day 05: Æthenor - Deep in Ocean Sunk the Lamp of Light

If I could make life a silent film, this would be the score.

Also, the choice in font and text placement on the cover makes me swoon.

Criminally Forgotten Albums | Day 04:
Portishead - Third

Roseland NYC Live is perfect, but Third is so fucking remarkable and so rarely discussed. I feel like we as a species need to be reminded of this. Its undulating sprawling sounds tempt a listener towards both the light and the dark.

Criminally Forgotten Albums | Day 03:
Karp - Self Titled LP

There’s a great documentary about this band. It’s called Kill All Redneck Pricks. It’s fantastic.

If you’re unfamiliar with Karp, please check them out. Jared Warren prior to Big Business. Both are essential.

Criminally Forgotten Albums | Day 02:
Heavy Winged - Blacc Lust

Good luck accurately identifying the genre these guys were a part of. Avant-garde? Noise? Drone? Psychedelic? Sure. All of those work. If I had neighbors, they’d hate me. Bottom line: HW rips!

Criminally Forgotten Albums | Day 01: Shipping News - Flies the Fields

(A new series of useless posts that are an attempt to make me forget all the other shit that’s happening and making me sad.)

Watching members of the working class defend billionaires is the apex of dystopian foreshadowing.

Reading She-Hulk and seeing a common hiking spot from high school, gives the warm fuzzies.

Those in positions of power have such thin skins when it comes to criticism.

When they go low, go Kendrick Lamar

Kendrick was perfect! No notes.
