A collection of caffeinated noise.
Samantha Fish “Paper Doll” A smooth blues rock album, her guitar work trends towards rock here, but it never lets go of the blues undertone. Listening to her play is a fantastic experience. (2025, Rounder)

Pet Shop Boys “Very” Into the 90s they go, dragging some of their new wave charm along, but more so fully sinking their teeth into 90s era techno and synth pop. It’s a good album, nice and bouncy. (1993, Parlophone)

Pet Shop Boys “Introspective” The third album starts to see some wild experimentation. There’s still the roots of the new wave sound, but creeping in is a newer style of electronic music. The songs get a little less formulaic, almost a proto-techno/rave style. Avery cool album. (1988, EMI)

Pet Shop Boys “Actually” Their second album, very much like their first, super 80s new wave music. Not as many stand outs for me here, but it still rocks and is a super cool listen. (1987, EMI)

Pet Shop Boys “Please” Getting back into posting my latest acquisitions, we start down the road of Pet Shop Boys discography. What a debut album, just comes out of the gate at a sprint. This is prime 80s new wave, absolute banger. (1986, EMI)

Obtiuary “Dying Of Everything” The latest album from this banner carrying band is them giving you all things you love about death metal & Obituary in spades. Big and heavy and fast. Absolutely bangin. (2023, Relapse)

Obituary “Obituary” The band’s tenth album, and thirty years in is a scorching testament to their thrash roots and ground breaking death growl. It is a truly badass album, rightly heavy and loud. (2017, Reprise)

The Swing Years - From my grandparent’s collection. August’s box set is a six record collection of the biggest swing hits from 1939 to 1946. Seventy two tracks that look back into when swing was dominant. Absolutely fantastic box. (1965, Reader’s Digest)

The Body & Dis Fig “Orchards Of A Futile Heaven” Two piece The Body create this intense, claustrophobic, wall of sound. Dis Fig applies her vocals over that with sometimes light trip hop singing, and sometimes raw power. And it is pure sonic amazement. (February 2025, Thrill Jockey)

Obituary “Inked In Blood” It took five years to make a new album - and it was worth that wait. This album goes hard, it is the best of old school and modern death metal. If all you want is a continuous onslaught of heavy riffs, this scratches that itch. (2014, Relapse)

Erroll Garner “Encores In Hi Fi” From my grandparents collection, there’s several albums from him. And just.. holy shit this is some good piano jazz. It is absolutely perfect for sitting down and relaxing to. Late night coffee and cake, chilling out. Yeah. (1958, Columbia)

Lijadu Sisters “Danger” A reissue of their 1976 album, bringing this amazing style back into view of modern audiences. Afrobeat infused with reggae, funk, and soul. Absolutely brilliant, the modern release is a crystal clear sound that keeps the original production. (July 2025, Numero Group)

Obituary “Darkest Day” Circling all the way back to the late 80s with this one, thundering blast beats, that thrashy early death metal sound, almost kind of understandable growl. Easily one of their best albums, it hits just perfectly with the super heavy notes. (2009, Candlelight)

Implant “Chaos Machine Part 3: Judging Sinners” It’s late and I was chilling with the latest installment of this. It’s a little bit dark, a little bit club, and a little bit slowed down EBM. It’s a pretty cool album for a late night spin. (February 2025, Alfa Matrix)

Al Blk Era “Rave Immortal” Sisters taking a wide swath of genres and creating a very cool mix of metal, rave, pop, and electro. It swirls all together in a solidly cool way. (January 2025, Earache)

Obituary “Xecutionaer’s Return” Combining all the best parts of two decades of death metal brings us here. Back are the double bass blast beats, alongside the slower groove sound. The vocals aren’t quite the pure death growl, but they aren’t clean. It’s just damn good metal. (2007, Candlelight)

Annahstasia “Tether” Her debut album is a smooth combination of light jazz, soul, and avantgarde. Her voice has this quiet silky property to it, though still forceful. Absolutely excellent debut, soft and power at once. I encourage checking her work out. (June 2025, Drunk Sum Wtr)

Obituary “Frozen In Time” The band broke up in 1998, and the story almost ended. This was supposed to be a one off reunion album, which spawned a renewed interest from everyone. A slower, crunchy, doom-laden, extra heavy death metal album. Absolutely awesome album. (2005, Roadrunner)

Resurgence - the july box set took its time coming out. Plagued by manufacturing delays… here it is - 7 CDs of cold wave, darkwave, post-punk, & gothic rock of every flavor. Old & new bands, it focuses on no era, it gives you this amazing array from conception to modern club. (June 2025, Spleen+

Mozart, Busch conducting “The Marriage Of Figaro” From my grandparents collection. A well packaged box, two records and a program with the operas lyrics. It’s a nice recording too, they bring it to life nicely. Sadly, I don’t think this has been reissued in the last 60 years. (1956, RCA Victor)

Murder By Death “Live… And Underground” Alongside their final album is a live concert recording, recorded underground in the caverns at pelham. The unique space carries through the recording. It’s an exciting and open concert. An fantastic addition to their catalog and outro. (June 2025, Tentshow)

Obituary “Back From The Dead” Their fifth album is another groove/death album. Slow and grinding, almost a continuation of World Demise. Very much in the lead of the death metal genre. (1997, Roadrunner)

Obituary “World Demise” Their fourth album, & the only album I actually owned for decades, aside from bootlegs of their first. It’s a very different death metal album, as the mid 90s saw a lot of change. Slower, more groove sounding. It’s a heavy grinding album, still my favorite. (1994, Roadrunner)

Murder By Death “Egg & Dart” This is their last album. I discovered the band by scrolling through kickstarter in 2011or12. Missed ever seeing them live. But what a wonderfully gorgeous album to go out on. It feels like the soundtrack to a western that doesn’t exist... (June 2025, Tentshow)
