I've always felt that No Expectations and Former Clarity were strange complementary pieces; differing in focus but united in approach. If you don't subscribe to Josh's newsletter—and I am sure you already do—get after it.

Greg Ginn hadn't done an interview in 13 years when I reached out. I figured he would say no, if he said anything at all. But after enlisting three Gen Z musicians to be in Black Flag with him, he decided it was time to talk. For @nytimes.com:

We gotta start close-reading Dead Kennedys album artwork like it’s the writings of Nostradamus
Real tweets from the White House are indistinguishable from anti-Trump AI slop.
Or, in this case, 1990s Adbusters parodies.
