Did you know I released a sneek peak lyric video from my upcoming album? It's a track called "Psalm 109", but it's not exactly church music

when my son was a baby i'd sing to soothe him but I didn't usually sing kiddie songs, I'd just go with whatever was in my head. But lemme tell ya, I did have boundaries:

Green Day - Longview
Slayer - Payback
Planet Smashers - Super Orgy Porno Party

And maybe the worst of all - Last Caress

I enjoy (sarcastically) the idea that some may not find it divisive. Like there are people who are neutral on it. Who aren't Nazis themselves but think it's a legit thing to be. Arguably worse than the full on Nazi's, tbh. In a sense, the coast guard is actually bang-on

(to be clear this sux)

I don't know who accidentally signed me up for Haley Steven's mailing list (running for the dem nomination for Senate in Michigan in '26) but as a Canadian I didn't waste a rare opportunity to someone directly tell off a shitty US congressperson when I unsubscribed!

My niche complaint of the day is that when Sol Niger Within was uploaded to streaming, instead of breaking it up into tracks like my CD is, it's just one big long 43 min song and sometimes that's great but sometimes I just want to listen to Bouncing at the Bottomless Pit and groove tf out

Can a waveform for a song indicate whether it's any good?

(The answer is - why not??)
November 6, 2025 at 1:36 AM
Okay, give me a cover-that's-better-than-the-original *BUT*: the twist is that the original has to be from one of your all-time-favourite bands.

I want covers that are better than songs you thought couldn't be topped.
November 3, 2025 at 6:04 PM
Okay hot take time.

If Load/ReLoad is a single album that looked something like this:

Fuel
Ain't My Bitch
Memory Remains
Until it Sleeps
King Nothing
Devil's Dance
Unforgiven II
Hero of the Day

And maybe 2 other tracks of the remaining NINETEEN songs,

.....it's maybe better than the black album.

I used to have opinions on who should and shouldn't get candy and I have come to realize that the only type of person I should deny candy is "asshole".

If you're asking for something that I bought in order to give away, and you're not an asshole about it, you can have some.
A handy guide to the upcoming holiday:
If a kid is on SNAP and you've decided this is the one moment you're going to care: give them the candy
If a kid can't verbally say "trick-or-treat" : give them the candy
If a kid looks too old to be trick-or-treating: give them the candy

Hope this helps!

I used to think I was crazy or naive for being frustrated that politicians wouldn't simply focus on what's important - thinking that there was some value in going along with buzzy-worthy issues at the expense of real shit. It finally seems there are a few, like, relatively normal ones out there

The green birds are champs

RIP Sam Rivers. Re-arranged was one of the first songs I ever learned to play on bass. He was so, so good. I'm shocked.

Man this is some fucked up stuff. Threatening to have a cop thrown in a gulag for doing his job with the thinnest veil imaginable.
An ICE agent, who is being arrested for drunk driving and nearly killing his little kids & others, tries to stop the arrest by racially profiling the officers arresting him. Amazing to watch the courtesy given to him as he is belligerent and uncooperative

I actively stopped using and promoting with Spotify sometime last year but I'm now thinking of actively pulling my music, now that I hear some artists are actually on the hook financially for fake streams (which I'm convinced Spotify itself is either doing directly or abetting). Anyone done this?
