You know that thing where you've been meaning to get to something, and then time passes and not doing that thing becomes more and more the thing you're doing. Anyway, I hope everyone here is good.

Peace out, Tim Curry Mundane personal fact about this record: after I graduated high school I worked for a while at a clothing importer in downtown Providence RI. A dude I worked there with played rhythm guitar on these sessions. Solid dude. #vinyl #NowSpinning #TimCurry

It’s the whole right wing media strategy now: be openly antagonistic to anyone who dares question their crafted narrative and bullshit. Indignation, derision, feigned condescension, hostility.

Swear I'm not making this up. Red is out of the house so time to crank some music she's meh on. Couldn't decide what to play so I opened the Discogs app and gave a shake on my collection to get a random suggestion. No word of a lie, it returned The Saints' […] [Original post on beige.party]

So a couple of weeks ago I got a copy of Pixies Trompe Le Monde, which I haven't listened to in entirety since probably the 90s. And it's a really good record, good songs, but you know what hampers it most? The lack of Kim Deal harmonies and backing vocals. I don't think she sings once on the […]
