Hostile Design, by Black Eyes 6 track album

There’s a new Black Eyes album out for the first time in 21 years and I could not be happier blackeyes.bandcamp.com/album/hostil...

YouTube video by Filthy Little Angels Life Without Buildings - Pop Life (Prince cover)

While we’re talking Life Without Buildings deep cuts, they did a mean Prince cover too www.youtube.com/watch?v=l2RW...

Love Trinity, by Life Without Buildings 1 track album

Life Without Buildings reissuing one of my favorite songs they ever made makes me very happy errolshotwax.bandcamp.com/album/love-t...

Packing up to move and I’m going to fight whoever let me buy this many books

One of the preeminent garage rock/DIY pop labels of our time. From the early albums of Mikal Cronin to their recent releases like The Tubs and En Attendant Ana, there was almost never a point I wasn’t excited about something they were releasing. A true loss for the indie world

no scope, by crushed 12 track album

My friends in Crushed have put out one of the best debuts of the year, a stunning collection of internet soaked experimental pop that is as effortlessly cool as it is heartbreaking. Can’t recommend it enough crushedworldwide.bandcamp.com/album/no-scope

Jesus that's prescient. I really need to pick up one of his books

Straight Line Was A Lie, by The Beths 10 track album

The new Beths album is one of the best indie pop albums of the year. Which I think is something people say about every album they put out, but something about their latest is hitting extra hard this time thebethsnz.bandcamp.com/album/straig...

Lathe of Heaven: Aurora Read David Glickman’s review of the album.

Reviewed the new Lathe of Heaven album for Pitchfork, a great mix of early Killing Joke, early Flock of Seagulls, and a whole bunch of apocalyptic vibes pitchfork.com/reviews/albu...

There's nothing sacred that can't be turned into a joke

Saw someone refer to Grouper as "mommy" and I've never recoiled from something harder in my life

Realizing too late that being a writer mostly just consists of googling synonyms

Anyway I’m enjoying The Crying of Lot 49

Reading Pynchon for the 1st time is so funny because there will be something like “we’re supporters of the Confederate general who fought the Russians in the SF Bay during the Civil War”, laugh, wonder what it’s making fun of, and find out that, no, that actually happened

Really cool to see these pockets of dance music history being collected and preserved. This early House music zine that Primary Information reissued this year also looks amazing (same with Assembling a Black Counter Culture which I still need to read) primaryinformation.org/product/thing/

Excellent interview about a whole chunk of dance music I know very little about (but am excited to explore). Also touches on how the punk/DIY zine underground set the templet for this type of thing which is a fun bit of cultural exchange

This is really fantastic, and about a whole chunk of dance music I don't really know too much about. Going to get this immediately. Though when I opened up the email, I thought for sure it was going to be about this which also just came out recently primaryinformation.org/product/thing/

I have never felt like a bigger mark for a series of anniversary concerts in my life

To be clear, what NOLA Councilmembers are proposing isn’t just facial recognition —they already have that.

They want to run facial rec *on everybody at all times* without warrant or suspicion of a crime.

This is without precedent in the US & and an almost unfathomable assault on the 4th Amendment.

DHS’s Neo-Nazi Memes Show the Agency for What It Is From the beginning, the Department of Homeland Security has downplayed the threat of white nationalism while focusing its law enforcement power on groups it deems a threat to an imaginary ideal Americ...

I considered the Department of Homeland Security’s new white nationalist recruitment memes, in the context of the well-documented history of DHS downplaying and disregarding white nationalism and “domestic extremism.” As upsetting as these posts are, it also tracks.

RA.1000 Terre Thaemlitz / DJ Sprinkles ⟋ RA Podcast

That DJ Harvey & Andrew Weatherall b2b also looks amazing. And I still need to listen to that Theo Parrish mix also as well. And we got our first Terre Thaemlitz/ DJ Sprinkles in 15 years. Deeply impressed with this series ra.co/podcast/1013

RA.1000 Frankie Knuckles ⟋ RA Podcast

Hostile Design, by Black Eyes 6 track album

There’s a new Black Eyes album coming in Oct. I am losing my mind blackeyes.bandcamp.com/album/hostil...

Zohran Mamdani and Mahmoud Khalil Are in on the Joke What it feels like to laugh when the world expects you to disappear.

No Joy got BNM in 2025. Truly anything is possible

BBC International Editor Jeremy Bowen has confirmed that the entire Al Jazeera team in Gaza City has been killed.

Really wish I had not found out Ben Platt covered "Diet Pepsi"

Letters To Ordinary Outsiders, by Comet Gain 12 track album

Totally missed Comet Gain released a new album two months ago. Comet Gain have remained one of the greatest and most consistent indie pop bands of the past 30+ years and it's incredible this new LP is just as good as their "classic" material comet-gain.bandcamp.com/album/letter...
