Minor Bandcamp Friday as I was overwhelmed with indecision & just went with what I know. Latest Merzbow & Muslimgauze plus the Joyful Noise Players Live at Big Ears. Not only are all the performers top notch but my friend @flakesky.bsky.social wrote the liner notes.

Bandcamp Friday purchases:
Merzbow- Bariken Returns
Joyful Noise Players- Live at Big Ears
Muslimgauze- Muslimgauze-Muslimlahore

"Ready to Die for Xiu Xiu makes me insane. Not in a bad way, but a way that is hard for my lil pea brain and lil wizened heart to handle. So much care, emotion, intellectual love and remarkable attention to detail. I'm physically overwhelmed by the honour. This means so much to me." - Jamie Stewart

"Play it, Archie." - Three days straight of jazz, avant-garde, and hardly injesting any food due to pure adrenaline and excitement. Also, bottomless free drinks.
