Been relearning an important writing lesson this week. Half the battle is just getting started. Sitting down and doing it whether you’re tired or not. Whether you feel like it or not. Whether it’s the NBA playoffs or not. Once you get going, there’s no better feeling in the world.

Checked in on the old Goodreads page this week and was thrilled to discover Troll now has over 50 ratings, and nearly 20 reviews, including these two recent gems! If you’ve read and haven’t rated/reviewed, please consider doing so. If you haven’t read, do that! @whiskeytit.com

-Got to see Water Damage recently, and I don’t think any album could capture the relentless power of their live drone. But this one is a great place to start. -YHWH Nailgun is doing something unique with raw abandon. That goes a long way with me. -RIP Roy Ayers. The mf’n realest.

I was prepared to hate this review, but then it got super nice at the end! Thanks to the the man with the kind face @jchaplinsky.bsky.social for taking a chance on Troll. You’re not the first person to tell me it’s something of an antidote to Fuccboi. @whiskeytit.com

Stop by the @whiskeytit.com booth 563 at #AWP and pick up an ultra-limited preview copy of @davidscotthay.bsky.social’s latest mindbreaker: The Butcher of Nazareth (official release - Feb. 2026). If you check the fine print on that badass cover, you'll notice that I wrote the introduction!

Dave Fitzgerald's review of Suspect

5/5: Good Lord. Gina Tron has been through it. I'm not gonna lie, this one hit close to home. Not so much, as I originally expected, for the school shooting angle, as for Tron's cleareyed recollection...

Ah, that special time of year when I get hype for March Madness, fill out 2 or 3 brackets with different friend groups, sit down to watch the first game, and am instantly reminded how much better the NBA is than college basketball.

Holy shit! Had an outpatient procedure today and woke up to this. Am I dreaming? Am I in Oz? What a dazzling, humbling slate of writers to see my name among. Huge thanks to James Nulick and @anxietypress.bsky.social including me in this murderer’s row. 🔥🖤

-Great Falls is some mathy-ass hardcore. Makes me wanna mosh at weird angles. Fuck up my back. -I don't want to oversell Jellyfish, but it's giving Freddy Mercury doing Brian Wilson songs with ELO. Crazy fun. -Saffron Bloom is some sexy-ass dub. Makes me wanna give back massages.

-RIP Porridge Radio. You never wasted our time -Syclops is one of the best electronic artists I've come across in a minute. Shimmery, complex and eminently danceable -Starting to come around on Boldy James -The Pangaea/Agharta back-2-back listening experience never, ever gets old

-New work schedule means a 30-scrob is now the weekly baseline. -In the past 2 weeks, closed out the colossal catalogues of both Curren$y and Blu. What ultraprolific rapper should I do next (Czarface, AJ Suede, and Estee Nack were other recent obsessions). Help me fall in love!

“Would you complain because a beautiful sunset doesn't have a future or a shooting star a payoff? And why should romance 'lead anywhere'? Passion isn't a path through the woods. Passion is the woods.” ― Tom Robbins, Half Asleep in Frog Pajamas RIP to a great who never cared about being great

Athens has a new hockey team called the Rock Lobsters. Whenever they score a goal, “Rock Lobster” plays over the loudspeakers - an excellent tactic for demoralizing the other team. I’d like to see us make it the only song we play. Every penalty. Every timeout. Just be relentless. Drive them insane.

-This was a real chill Scrob. Except for Yowie. Yowie is as not chill as the other 15 albums are chill combined. -Nucleus is making me rethink fusion. Damn them. -Not sure how I’d never heard that Pharoah Sanders/Bill Laswell collab before, but it’s mysterious and gorgeous.

So I'm finding that the longer I go without Tweeting, the more X is sending me unsolicited thirst traps in my "Recommended Tweets". I guess the algorithm is trying to entice me back into engagement, but I kind of like the passive absolution of just letting the booty come to me.

-17x2! The rarest and most beautiful of all Scrobs -Billy Bang's solo on "Dark Silhouette" is unlike anything I've ever heard on a jazz record -No. 1 Angel still lowkey my fave Charli -Tomorrow in a Year is the sound of a project outgrowing its name -We need more album covers like Snakehips Etcetera

"Can't get enough" he says. "Never laughed so hard" he says. The perfect Christmas gift for anyone on your list this holiday season, he heavily implies. Humorless liberal. Stuffy conservative. Children. The elderly. Troll is a big tent. All are welcome. @whiskeytit.com @hvbooknerd.bsky.social
