Is it a Ballaké Sissoko track? Became a big fan of his stuff recently

Congratulations to Kim Thayil, the first person featured on the debut album by the Presidents of the United States of America to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame

The Number Ones: Travis Scott’s “Franchise” (Feat. Young Thug & M.I.A.) In The Number Ones, I’m reviewing every single #1 single in the history of the Billboard Hot 100, starting with the chart’s beginning, in 1958, and working my way up into the present. Book Bonus Beat:...

Number Ones on Travis Scott, Young Thug, and M.I.A.'s "Franchise," which is definitely a real song that everyone remembers.

Returning to this after the news about Sam Rivers (RIP), and the answer was clear, whether or not you hated Fred Durst, Limp Bizkit had a fuckin rhythm section that couldn't be denied. Listening to "Re-Arranged" again and that bass line kills.

I wasn’t exaggerating it rules so hard

If I had explain American history in one sentence, I could do worse than "John Brown was hung for treason, but Robert E. Lee was not."

Just watch Pet Sematary 2 (the one with Clancy Brown) instead. It’s not particularly good but it’s also the best one

Looks like the mailbox is stalking you in the night

You must be remembering correctly because I also remember it being good

Grave New World, by Nuke Watch 9 track album

Nuke Watch have a spacey weirdness that reminds me of some of the quieter moments from Black Dice, though this is a bit more organic. This is the kind of psychedelic music where, if people hear you listen to this, they'll think you know about drugs. Good thing it sounds great on headphones!

How the Kimmel Controversy Echoes Disney’s Dirty China Deal Former Disney CEO Michael Eisner berated the company’s capitulation before authoritarian MAGA threats, but in many ways, he set the example.

Iger did the right thing with Kimmel and MAGA, because when Disney caves to autocrats, we have to live with it for a long time. My new piece for @thenation.com on Disney, Scorsese, "Kundun," Eisner, and the pop culture erasure of Tibet.

Doesn’t Rob Zombie’s first depict Michael’s escape? As I remember, Danny Trejo was there. It has been a long time though, so I may be misremembering

(It’s probably Facelift by Alice in Chains)

@shadowtodd.bsky.social I couldn't find a complete list of what you have in your Songs That Stop on the Word "STOP" collection, but I just wanted to check if the Dave Matthews Band's The Last Stop is in there. It does it twice!

I am haunted by a Gen Z-er who told me back on Old Twitter that he only recently learned that Snoop Dogg was a real person and not a mascot for commercials like Jake from State Farm

It’s One of the Weirdest Mistakes in Movie History. I Spent Months Investigating How It All Went Wrong. The story behind cinema’s most mysterious bird.

This is one of the best pieces of film journalism I've ever read - full of history, science, and granular filmmaking process. A testament to what real research and human obsession can achieve, all to tell the story of how CHARLIE'S ANGELS got a bird wrong onscreen. Terrific read.

I completely forgot anyone followed me on here. Too used to getting zero engagement on the Tweeter.

Y’all still using this?

Baldwin’s excellent essay “Uses of the Blues” first appeared in Playboy. And honestly, I’d love it if Pornhub had a section devoted to cultural criticism. Meet the people where they are!

You are aware that Junkie XL is the composer for Mad Max: Fury Road, yes? Your use of “big name people” could imply that you aren’t considering him as one, but I don’t wanna assume that’s what you’re saying.
