Next year at this time I want to have reviewed enough books, shows, and songs to write a meaningful “best of” list for 2026. #goals #newyears #resolutions

I'm for Pinkshift staying very punk rock, but their swirly, acoustic winter song, "Snow," is pretty. I hope they don't lose punk points for having such a soaring, ethereal melody. #punkrock #musicsky #newmusic

Peach PRC and Nectarine Girl both put out new music this week: "Out Loud" and "Before Photo." I like both, but of these, I like "Out Loud" by Peach PRC a little bit better. No, I will not be using "sweet" as a descriptor nor will I be making any "fuzzy" jokes. #musicsky #newmusic

I haven’t been whammed yet this year but I also haven’t heard “Fairytale of New York.” Is this some sort of diabolical trade-off? #musicsky

How do you solve a problem like Maria?
Adderall!
(But I mean… why would you want to? You’d miss the dope crafting and the sudden show!)

If you like the skippy triple beats of Mumford and Sons, but you'd rather listen to clever lyrics from a woman on a sassy tear, check out this cheerful breakup song: "Greener Than Me" by Molly Millington. #newmusic #musicsky
Greener Than Me 💚 Out now!

Update: Anthony Po and Daniel Cole, aka "nano," did not bump Taylor Swift off #1 in the Billboard Top 200 this week. Sounds like their collaborative project "Everybody's Album" was disqualified from being ranked, on a rules violation. #musicsky

Theo Bleak checks in from Scotland this week with a pretty murmur that somehow manages to also be pretty metal. Maybe because the chorus lyrics are just "TO HELL" over and over? #newmusic #musicsky #dundee

Dynamite performances, sparkling script, and an emotional punch that really snuck up on me. A short play that felt like a whole thing. Hoping to see these powerhouses again in 2026.

I watched the Animal Farm trailer.
Surprising: "Feel it Still"? Really?
Intriguing: There is a specific warning against letting 10 year olds watch this.
Worrying: I see Boxer. I see him.
But: Where's Snowball?

"Jukebox" by Sabrina Sterling is a 'sad girl' song but very pretty. Unpretentious but still pleasantly self-aware. Manages rhymes without sounding too slick. Some really good lines.

Are Anthpo and Danny Cole going to hit #1 on Billboard's 200 list next week with their crowdsourced album, *Everybody's Album*? If so, it'll be a triumph of clever marketing. The songs are Frankensteined, with seams just slightly off kilter, but "Blood Dye 40" is a little gem. #musicsky

The new song by David Kushner, "Bittersweet Dreams," makes me want to fire up my old Peter Murphy CDs. Not just the deep way the vowels resonate, but the way the song is comfortably albeit poetically vague. Kushner's track just needs a viola riff. #musicsky #davidkushner
