Are you gonna sit there and say that you have yet to see the sublimely bonkers 22-member band in which I play piano? Well FIX THAT MESS MY DAWG: catscradle.com/event/soda-w...

$20 or more for the digital download, $30 or more for that and the CD. Thanks for your support and for tolerating my self-promotion. 🤘

Update re: the new Monologue Bombs album. Recording has started. Seven people have been so kind as to pre-order (thank you!). If you’d like to help scoot this process along by pre-ordering too, check the PayPal and Venmo QRs (see below).

Every ghost or time portal or speculative tech device is in the service of these quietly haunted characters, driven ever back to the past, trying to piece together where life went sideways…or just petered out. As a nostalgic and emotional fellow, I was way into it. Highly recommended.

I finished Richard Butner’s book of short stories this past weekend, and I found it quite affecting. While the stories could be (and are) categorized as science fiction or magical realism, there’s a thread of longing and loss running through them.

There was a kind of emotional monotony in the back half, but this was really good. Art as a way to process (but not necessarily heal) grief. Powerful climax & exceptional performances, most notably the child actors. Where do they get kids who can take on heaviness so well? #MovieOfTheWeek #filmsky

Needless to say, we here at #DumpsterEnthusiast HQ have mixed feelings about said enthusiasm seeping into the mainstream culture. Thoughts?

Great lead performance. But I can’t say I’d recommend the film. Thoughts? #MovieOfTheWeek #filmsky

NIGHT MAYOR (@eymannamye and I) has a new track out today to start your spring weekending right. “MASSIVE CHAIR” starts out slinky & moody and then ends up triumphant & lovely. Listen and acquire at all the spots, but mostly here: nightmayor1.bandcamp.com/track/massiv... Thanks & happy Friday. 🤓

So this is why they say the vanguard of new cinema is to be found in horror. Loved all the mysterious Rashomon-ing in the front half. Got freaked out good and proper in the back half. Great performances all around, too. Smart and creepy stuff. #MovieOfTheWeek #filmsky

Recording for the new Monologue Bombs album (Night Before the Plague) has begun. If you’d like to support the creation, I’m taking pre-orders via PayPal (scottdavidphillips2@gmail.com) and Venmo (@Scott-Phillips202). $20 (or more) for the digital, $30 (or more) for that and the CD. Thanks y’all. 🙂

So I start recording soon. I put some merch up for sale over at Bandcamp if you’d like to help get the new album started (or finished perhaps). These are old Skillet Gilmore prints, suitable for framing. Or thumbtacking. Ten bucks cheap. Get em here: themonologuebombs.bandcamp.com/merch

Baumbach has gotten so much more visually adventurous of late. And Sandler is subtle and big-hearted and sad. But at the end of the day, I related more to Crudup’s character than Clooney’s, so I didn’t connect as much as I’d have liked to. Still, several great moments. #MovieOfTheWeek #filmsky

I love a talky film. I love a real-time, one-location film. I love a sad & romantic (not smoochy-romantic, but wide-eyed awe at the beauty in the world romantic) film. I love a film with a performance at its center off of which you cannot take your eyes. I loved this film. #MovieOfTheWeek #filmsky

ONE WEEK! The 22-member band I play piano in - @sodawatersea - will be performing at @motorcomh Sat 3/21. Choral singing, a string section, 2 guitars, 2 drummers, horns, synth—it’s quite a spectacle. If you haven’t seen it yet, you should! Ticket link: motorcomusic.com/event/soda-w... 🙂🤘🔥❤️

Thanks to the heads for youtubin’ with me & Brother Dan last night. It was a grand old time & great way to celebrate the double nickel birthday. Dan covered Fred Astaire, Tyler Childers, Social Distortion, and Bryan Adams. I covered Minutemen, Thin Lizzy, Ramones, and Robyn.

LESS THAN TWO WEEKS! We’ve all been some anxious mo-fos lately. In one reporter’s opinion, it’s been like Viet Nam, and it ain’t been no picnic. But don’t look now, because maybe partying with the Phillips Brothers will help! It’s our birthday show and it’s gonna be a testament to the glory of man!
