Last Long Enough to go Extinct
Paradise does bleed, its missing a few teeth.

Take a couple bars off, let Just live
Here’s where it starts: a tweet from two years ago, from a producer I don’t really know, featuring a rapper I have never heard of cannot place, sounding like the beating heart of hip-hop as an enterprise for two minutes. Please watch it. Great voice, first of all. The base, the slight rasp. You know…

Happy Sunday – 12/11/2022
I don’t know why a person would ever follow mainstream releases when stuff like this just comes out on the internet all the time.

Sometimes I think I am to blame for all the change
Anyway, I don’t know what this song is about and I don’t care. What this song is about is living in Philadelphia in your late 20s, trying to be a part of something, not a replacement of something. It sounds like Clarity-era Jimmy Eat World, I guess.

Best Suckers
There are two kinds of people in this world: those who see every issue as a binary and people like me who got board of this setup about three sentences in. Processing art as “good” or “bad” is not as interesting as understanding and articulating the ways in which something is “good” or “bad.” These…

Editor’s Picks: Cheese Hoagie
People do not eat enough vegetables. I think you’re supposed to get five servings a day. Have you had five servings of vegetables this week? Don’t lie to me, you know how that degrades us both. Luckily, I have the solution, I have the heath-food fix that will allow you to up your vegetable intake…

Editor’s Picks: Sitting Outside and Listening to Music at Night
Consider it a simple suggestion to make life feel more “cinematic” or “meaningful;” consider it a radical act of mental health to block out the sounds of one’s surroundings and take a self-guided tour of emotional standing; consider it something I just did for a couple minutes before bed while on vacation; consider it a…

New Keyboard
I got a new keyboard for Christmas. Mechanical. Has higher keys, makes a satisfying “click” sound when you type. Not exactly like a typewriter but not far off. Probably going to annoy the hell out of my wife, but I love the damn thing. Plus, it’s got a bunch of colors, which makes it look…

Local Sports, At it Again
You know, if someone has to tell you that the heart of rock and roll is still beating, that means it probably isn’t, or at least that person might not be a reliable messenger vis-a-vis hearts.

That’s Kind of How We Have Our Fun
Just in the same way that MTV would occasionally turn me on to a new band (usually between the hours of 2-5 a.m., usually between the ages of 12 and 15, sometimes for good and sometimes for ill), the god-computers that run Spotify Discover Weekly will, at rare times, find the right frequency and provide…
