My band Ekko Astral is releasing our first song in a year — “horseglue” — this Wednesday on @topshelfrecords.com.

It is a deeply personal call for moral courage aimed directly at the beltway media elite.

Share this widely & brace yrselves, this is the hardest song we’ve ever dropped. 📰 🩸
“horseglue” by Ekko Astral out October 22, 2025 on Topshelf Records. IF IT BLEEDS IT LEADS

Scott McTominay being sold was the day I knew the rot had really set in at United. He just scored a possible scudetto winning goal for Napoli(a fuckin banger too) and it looks like the fireworks in celebration could burn a city down. I could not be happier for him. #Napoli

Instead of having decent public housing we have tax payer's money handed to a TD who takes it to put tenants in her 10 houses, and then gets to vote against tenant's rights.
Independent TD Gillian Toole failed to declare her housing contracts with local authorities – for six rental properties – as well as her directorship of a property company.

Blatant corruption. We should have a by-election out of this.

The Housing Agency refused to release information to homeowners affected by the defective block crisis – classifying social media criticism and news reporting as “threats” that “endanger life or safety”.

This is for everyone in the country. You'll never cage Michael Lowry, the crook that can't get got. You'll never even get him to apologise. He should be hounded until he retires,he should never know rest, the public should boo him on sight. He should be made a social pariah.

Dáil “speaking time’ row is really about FFG not wanting to admit Michael Lowry is an important and influential part of their Government.

I never, ever, ever want to hear a single word out of any Fianna Fáil or Fine Gael supporters mouth about how Sinn Féin or People Before Profit don't respect democratic norms and processes.

This has been both shameful and shameless from the government, from start to finish.

A lot of people knew George Lowe as the voice of Space Ghost. But to me, he was the voice of Brak’s dad.

Huge night in Norway for League of Ireland football, Shamrock Rovers with a 1 nil win over Molde, great to see for the country. It would be amazing to see them progress.

Look I agree that Elon Musk appears to be on a lot of drugs every time he appears in public. That's not very interesting to me. I'm more interested in how many drugs he can do at once. I think he could probably do more than anyone ever. I bet he could take way more than the doctors say is safe.
