Despite them playing in nowhere IL and playing zero Illusion of Safety songs, the Beggars tour was maybe one of the best Thrice sets I ever saw, I...
Also Pulse Demon-ass album cover (I love it)
I like to think that the fact that there's a bonus track featuring Erykah Badu is indicative of how hard this is gonna go. The singles are so good.
Checking back in: it's so good. Standouts for me are Na Gul, Autumn Leaves, Bolo Na, and the singles but tbh it's a no-skip.
Illinois is not only on the list but in the top 40 so I am willing to forgive a lot of sins this list may have on further inspection lol
New Sachi Kobayashi drops on Friday: [MEDIA]
it's not impossible that you could get tickets on Friday but you'll have to be real lucky
No Chappell Roan for me, might try again on Friday with Daði Freyr as a backup

I got a ticket for Friday during the artist presale, I might try for Saturday tomorrow but I'm just happy to get to see them again. I literally...
As if by magic today I got a chance to listen to the new stuff and it is real good, I'll post here when it's out for real.
Uhhhhhh [MEDIA]
Also I was talking to a friend yesterday about a buddy of mine who makes some of my favorite ambient tunes and realized I haven't shared here:...
Omg Walt rules, listen to A Hole In The Fence ASAP
Patrick Shiroishi joining The Armed is one of my favorite things that's happened in music these last few years.
There was nothing I'd classify as a rant at the Chicago show
ugh jealous, I got the regular ol 7" because the white label was sold out by the time i saw the email
god i wish, i just wanna see state faults ONCE
This album rules, I'm no longer on twitter/x so I completely missed that horrifying interview saga, I hope claire is doing as okay as she can
nooooooooooooo (understandable but noooooooooooooo)
So fuckin' psyched, I don't wanna call a shot here but I'll be surprised if this doesn't end up being in my top 10 at the end of the year
My buddy hosts a podcast and I was a guest on this week's ep along with a mutual friend to talk about Q1 albums we liked! Like What You Like Q1...
Update: I love it, definitely leaning more into the emo side of emo ambient and it's claire so it's real good
This song’s gonna go hard live
