claremont cometh

The site also can't get any content updates until I can afford to drive out & retrieve my archives from storage (your donations can keep the cubesmart rent current). Any help is greatly appreciated. Claremont Cometh has always been a passion project, and I hope to lose money on it for years to come.

It's fee renewal time again, and your humble admin is still under-employed and somewhat underwater. If you find claremontcometh.net interesting or helpful, please consider putting in $5 on the ko-fi to keep the site online, or subscribing to my only other source of income at patreon.com/tiredpod

everybody get more Website right now

tired: the car podcast where you can hear the former bassist for the mountain goats Peter Hughes say "archive of our own" with his real human face, and we reference Jeanne Dielman, 23 quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles, and also go on a long tangent about reading Proust in your indie-rock tour van

That's Right

Stephen Steinbrink Live at The Vera Project, November 10, 2023 : Free Download, Borrow, and Streaming : Internet Archive Stephen Steinbrink2023-11-10The Vera ProjectSeattle, WATaped by: Jackson Barnes (gimmeanswers@gmail.com)Source: SP-CMC-8 (AT943) > SP-SPSB-8 > iHP-120...

his stuff is super different on the records, but for the tour we saw, he brought along Cole Pulice (woodwinds) and Taylor Vick (keyboards, harmony vox) and these arrangements are sooooooooo beautiful, this is the same lineup with one extra guy in there archive.org/details/10-o...

this is the huge brain take. we need the peter hughes + ben loughran + matt douglas project. also idk if you were in a position to see the tmg tour w/ stephen steinbrink & co opening but like. if i'm already asking for the moon here, i want cole pulice in there too

that's my GOAT

no matter your politics it’s disrespectful to joke about someone’s death. don’t say charlie kirk died from a grand piano falling on his head and his mouth turned into piano keys and then a flower pot fell on his dick and it honked like a bike horn. don’t say stuff like that

lmao

RIP BOZO

that's true. okay. matt douglas haters come to pont de rennes pedestrian bridge in rochester ny for reconciliation activities. it's bungee jumping except there will be no cords and no supervision and i'm pushing you

peter and matt gotta sneak off and make their own record let's manifest

peter and i disavow all matt douglas haters. if you hate matt douglas don't even listen to half-staff blues

this album is fucking unbelievable, holy shit. best thing I have listened to this year

Half-Staff Blues, by Peter Peter Hughes 11 track album

what kind of SEO do i need to stick in a post for tMG enjoyers to figure out that if they miss Peter Hughes so bad, he made his own record that whips and is already out. like. pspspsps peter balkan leak full album darnielle new this year book live show peterpeterhughes.bandcamp.com/album/half-s...

Half-Staff Blues, by Peter Peter Hughes from the album Half-Staff Blues

i know "fintech vest" is very funny on the face of it, but the hardest laugh i get on the record is still up front. Jordan T. on the piano goofing off and getting into a play-fight with the guitar... and when Snowy just HONKS in on the sax?? help me???

that's my GOAT

everyone keeps telling me they recommended Half-Staff Blues to somebody or sends me a reaction of them hearing the record, and every time it's people going nuts about it. all my friends have it stuck in their heads. overjoyed. i could just explode

Permanent State of Exception, by Peter Peter Hughes from the album Half-Staff Blues

this is also a great one for peter's softer-lower singing. tonally delivered as a love song with tongue firmly in cheek, but (obviously, by the title, if you're a Knower) like all songs on the record, actually about our u.s.american death spiral peterpeterhughes.bandcamp.com/track/perman...

Two-Stroke Solution, by Peter Peter Hughes from the album Half-Staff Blues

also for the 100th time: it's nuts how good peter himself sounds on this record. fans of Fangio, or people who know him for taking up a higher harmony w/ tmg, will get to hear his lower register! finally! which is genuinely just beautiful. example: peterpeterhughes.bandcamp.com/track/two-st...

1. peter raising his voice at the end to sing but DISTINCTLY not in a DiskothiQ era yelling way, just pushing his natural singing tone that little bit harder
2. pop filter backing vox
3. snowy guitar at the end total destruction no survivors

snowy guitar meltdown kill me dead thank you

Rising Tide, by Peter Peter Hughes from the album Half-Staff Blues

unbelievable how hard this one goes at the end. ridiculous peterpeterhughes.bandcamp.com/track/rising...

Quiet Life, by The Ocean Party from the album Beauty Point

today's pop filter/ocean party/etc scene jam chosen at random is "quiet life" from beauty point ty theoceanparty.bandcamp.com/track/quiet-...

REMINDER: for those curious about Peter's new friends from Pop Filter (Liam "Snowy" Halliwell, Lachlan Denton, Jordan Thompson, and Curtis Wakeling) there are TONS of links, curated recs etc on this page I'm updating today, now that the record's out! www.claremontcometh.net/end/of/your/...
