Over on Crucial Tracks… last two weeks worth of my favorite albums: crucialtracks.org/2024/04/f…

Whelp that was cool. Clouds opened up just in time!

Most Buffalo thing ever: sunny, perfect days over the weekend. 60 degrees plus. Eclipse day? Cloudy and kind of dreary. We’re gonna make the best of it, though! Street blocked off, snacks made, chairs set up.

A neglectful music blog host would like to make it up to you with a March super post of my favorite albums released in March, to date: crucialtracks.org/2024/03/f…

Enjoy!

Just published my favorite albums from the past two weeks, including Mannequin Pussy’s I Got Heaven and The Past is Still Alive by Hurray for the Riff Raff. That and more over at Crucial Tracks! crucialtracks.org/2024/03/f…

Better late than never – my favorite music releases from the last two weeks! Featuring Friko, IDLES, Ducks Ltd, The Chisel, and Heems. crucialtracks.org/2024/02/f…

I am 100% convinced that any childhood memory of time or distance (and usually hardship caused by said amount) is actually half of that in reality. Recent visits to my hometown neighborhood (so small!) AND I just tested my wife on her “riding my bike 7 miles to school” story. Actually, 2.5 miles. 😂

New music for February 2nd! Liquid Mike is the highlight here, but don’t sleep on very solid solo albums from J Mascis (Dinorsaur Jr) and J Robbins (Jawbox). crucialtracks.org/2024/02/f…
