Wrote a hardcore column about going to see Angel Du$t, one of my favorite bands in the world right now, and about new joints from Terror, NØ MAN, Azshara, A Mourning Star, Latest God, Portrayal Of Guilt, Rejoice, Dry Socket, Holy Dose, & World I Hate.

Album Of The Week: War Child's 'HELP(2)' We need to bring back compilations. I mean, we won’t. You can understand why we won’t. Compilations are fully technologically obsolete, since streaming services turn everything into compilations. You ...

Wrote about HELP(2), an all-star benefit compilation that mostly avoids the snares that bedevil so many all-star benefit compilations. (Seriously, Olivia Rodrigo's Magnetic Fields cover is so good.)

Number Ones on "Montero (Call Me By Your Name)," the one where Lil Nas X gives Satan a lapdance.

They've monetized and incentivized committing crimes against humanity.

It's a scandal on par with Pete Rose betting on baseball, if Pete Rose were undersecretary of defense, and baseball was murdering civilians with bombs.

Extremely high recommendation to go see Angel Du$t on the tour that just started. That band always rules but something special is happening this time in particular.

Premature Evaluation: Bruno Mars 'The Romantic' Bruno Mars wasn’t part of the Super Bowl Halftime Show earlier this month. It wasn’t a big deal. Nobody expected him to be there. Mars has already starred in a couple of past Halftime Shows, and his p...

The 1975's 'I like it when you sleep, for you are so beautiful yet so unaware of it' Turns 10 I didn’t take them seriously. When the 1975 sauntered onto my computer screen with their 2013 debut album, they struck me as another prefab pop-rock boy band along the lines of One Direction or 5 Seco...

I have once again written about everyone's favorite band, the 1975

Jeff Buckley, Wu-Tang, & Lauryn Hill Among First-Time Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame Nominees The august institution known as the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame has unveiled the nominees eligible for induction in 2026. This year the Hall has recognized 17 acts, and 10 of those names are being put ...

Some stray thoughts on this year's Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame inductees. (My real position is that that HOF is a corporate sham that should not exist, a vain effort to impose top-down order on beautiful chaos. But you make do with what you got.)

Premature Evaluation: Mitski 'Nothing's About To Happen To Me' Mitski wanted us to know that it would be over soon. When Mitski toured behind her last album, 2023’s The Land Is Inhospitable And So Are We, she put together an elaborately choreographed abstract sta...

Mitski's new album comes out on Friday, and it's really, really fucking good. Wrote about it.

Alternative Number Ones on Pearl Jam's "Who Are Are," a song that I don't remember ever hearing on the radio back in the day.

I keep hearing that the Epstein files are so big if we held everyone accountable everything would collapse. And no it wouldn’t. These rich guys don’t do any actual work. They aren’t actually important or useful they are just rich.

Wrote about the 20th anniversary of the Knife's Silent Shout, a truly great album that has not aged one second.
