Vinyl & CD collector, lyric dissector, dispenser of perfectly flawed takes. Omaha resident (by choice), admiring trees, riding trails, and occasionally writing for my tens of loyal fans.
Right on! So glad to find another fan out there

Funny you should mention this song...(which I adore!) Earlier this morning, I was *literally* looking at my first posts from when I first joined bluesky a year ago, and was reminded I posted about this and 11 other holiday faves.

Your content is reliably top-notch, btw!

Floating between Stereolab’s blips and Broadcast’s glitches… Melody’s Echo Chamber is pure dreamy echoes and hypnotic psychedelic pop.

CONFESSION: First time I heard “Only Shallow,” I thought my new Loveless cassette was defective.

REALIZATION: It’s now my all-time favorite LP, proving how music that sounds ‘wrong’ at first is usually just doing something new.

How is "Strange Geometry" already 20 years old? It still feels newer than most of what I listened to in 2024.

Jangle all the way!

These Rickenbacker ringleaders’ superpower was refusing to play the part of the traditional guitar hero.

Well said and could not agree more!

Listening to Jellyfish's 1990 masterpiece, Bellybutton, feels like standing under a rainbow in a candy store, where each harmony is a flavor and every riff is a sugar rush. 🌈🍭

Paint A Vulgar Picture by The Smiths

🎙️ World tour, media whore
Please, the press in Belgium
This was your life
And when it fails to recoup
Well, maybe
You just haven't earned it yet, baby 🎶

When you can’t decide between #NewOrder’s precision, #TheSmiths’ melancholy, and #PetShopBoys’ polish… then you remember #Electronic exists so you can have it all.

XO by #ElliottSmith sounds like sunlight through crisp morning air — tender and perfectly autumnal.

Spinning into spooky season with 8 LPs to summon chills, thrills, and the perfect soundtrack for Halloween vibes.

Which one would you dare to play first?

CONFESSION: In '88 I was all-in on GN'R crashing the hair-band party with more punch than polish.

REALIZATION: “One in a Million” has a killer Stones vibe—but its lyrics blast ignorance at full volume.

Now spinning Kasabian because sometimes a menacing mess of dancefloor haze, hypnotic beats, and fists-in-the-sky energy is best for shaking off the week and kicking the weekend wide open.
