Brian Glaser @bsglaser.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Thought about this more—how to listen to Prime Time if you’re not already (ahem) primed to do so. Maybe pick 1 instrument in a track and focus only on that? Listen to what the player is doing and then how the rest coheres or pushes against. Everyone is leading AND following. 110
Brian Glaser @bsglaser.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Quick edit: "Coleman and the rest of the band seem to be playing different songs, seems more like everyone following their own muse with a common goal of ecstatic discovery.” 121

Brian Glaser @bsglaser.bsky.social · 28/09/2026I’d say listen closely to the way the Bomb Squad turns noise into quick-cut funk on the PE record and then go back to the Ornette jam—they’re coming from a similar musical place. 110

Brian Glaser @bsglaser.bsky.social · 18/09/2026I think Flaming Lips get under-recognized for their consistent quality. The streak of records from PRIEST DRIVEN AMBULANCE to maybe EMBRYONIC is stronger than most bands can pull off. I’d compare it to runs in the Elvis C or Sonic Youth catalogs. 021

Brian Glaser @bsglaser.bsky.social · 11/09/2026Do you look forward to Back to School Night? I do, because it’s a great opportunity to represent the Achieve Foundation of South Orange & Maplewood and talk with parents & educators about how we can support them. I love supporting my community and our schools to help our kids achieve great things! 000

Brian Glaser @bsglaser.bsky.social · 01/09/2026As a quick knock against the idea that Fugazi and its people are dour and humorless…here’s how the band of 2 (bald) men & 1 woman are illustrated in the Coriky LP artwork. 030
Brian Glaser @bsglaser.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Exactly. When I hear complaints that Fugazi sounds strident or dour or pissed-off or whatever, I think about the context in which this music came out and hear Flavor Flav’s voice: “I got a right to be hostile!”static.klipy.comFlavor Flav with Signature Clock ChainALT: Flavor Flav with Signature Clock Chain 0131
Brian Glaser @bsglaser.bsky.social · 31/08/2026In 9th grade, a friend put a few songs from Zen Arcade on a mix tape. It felt like Hüsker Dü was playing inside my head—they’d somehow used instruments to organize my brain’s teen-boy noise into music. 2143
