Sharing art isn't quite the same as creating it in the first place, but it's akin to that in that you are making its exist for others who might not have known it otherwise. It's an act of kindness and generosity. Something wrong with your soul if you never ever do that.

Heart is breaking for the island, every video I see. Stay strong and stay inside, Jamaica. This storm is the most violent and terrifying observed since records have been kept. Climate change is here.

Okay sorry for not posting in forever. I'd promise to post more if I was planning on doing it. Reality is I get through a lot more records when I don't post what I'm listening to. Hope to get back to it soon enough.
Look at this fucking gorgeous album cover though.

If I had explain American history in one sentence, I could do worse than "John Brown was hung for treason, but Robert E. Lee was not."
John Brown’s raid on Harpers Ferry began on this day in 1859.

Jeff Rosenstock - Hellmode [2024]
Unless something changes, this year will mark the first in many that I didn't make it out to see @jeffrosenstock.bsky.social. Astounding punk songwriter, vocalist, bandleader and performer. Even when listening to other styles of music, 'Papa Jeff' is a polestar.

![Jeff Rosenstock - Hellmode [2024]
The cover is a mostly neon pink collage with cartoons, old photos, images of police actions. The title of the record is diagonal blackletter-style letters which are also slightly pixelated. As if this is the game over screen for a real life video game. The record itself is neon pink. Not sure what I had to do or where I had to pre-order to get one of the more limited pressings that pop up everywhere online right after release. Kind of annoying known issue with Polyvinyl. Whatever. It sounds awesome.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:hr4us34alc4p6ivela3qrxvc/bafkreicgz4iqmpsijlab4dubp2ctynjng3fioatoeudbmri7gnjkeocyky@jpeg)

Reagan Youth - It's A Beautiful Day...For A Matinee! [Rel. 2019, Rec. 1983]

Tony Allen - Film of Life [2014]
Immediately one of my favorite records. Was saving this one for no reason. Allen is a true master of rhythm, arguably the greatest drummer who's ever lived. A late-career masterpiece from the #afrobeat pioneer.

It's the almost-four-hour ambient/electronic/world set I put together last year: www.mixcloud.com/bullrog/quix...
Spent almost a month auditioning tracks, never played it in the space it was designed for. But it was really fun to dig in parts of my collection that don't typically see much action.
