Surprise, more year-end stuff over at Stereogum 😤

Wrote about my favorite, extremely atypical track from the latest Deafheaven album and the one-off feeble little horse single that I kept on repeat all year

Thrilled to get invited to contribute to the Quietus's year-end lists for the first time, even moreso to write blurbs on @lucyliyou.bsky.social and Mei Semones, both of whom made extremely vital records for me this year
Hark! The Quietus Albums of 2025 chart is here! Prepare to be astounded, thrilled and (potentially) perplexed. tQ subscribers can also dive into selections from all 100 albums in our bumper 9-hour playlist. #tQCharts

What have been your top picks of the year?

John! John, it's Marvin. Your cousin, Marvin Milton! You know that justification of the ways of God to Man you're looking for? Well, listen to this! *begins reciting the entirety of the Bible*

A Queer Ritual is such an exciting local music development in Minneapolis right now: heavy, communal, and wholly unapologetic, as only queer-centric shows can be

For @racketmn.com, I wrote about the first-ever AQR festival and spoke to @ruingazer.bsky.social about the evolution of the series
At A Queer Ritual, Bonds Are Built on Blood and Benefit Shows - Racket
With a two-day festival, the queer-focused heavy music series broadens the scope of its brutal catharsis.

Sent to me, ICE truck currently downtown Minneapolis 3rd & Hennepin near Gay 90s. I've called Monarca, but putting here as well. Maybe folks that spread news of St. Paul raid today can repost @naomikritzer.bsky.social @mauratwit.bsky.social @unicornriot.bsky.social

Realized I've never posted this here, so here's one of my favorite things I've ever made:

This needs more attention: Zohran SPLIT the straights with Cuomo. ALL of his margin was from LGBTQ+ voters. Every Dem who ever said “we should abandon the transes” needs this shoved down their fucking throat with a ramrod.

And that's a wrap on Pod Hero Season 2!

Thank you to everyone who's listened & enjoyed, excited to finish out this silly passion project (likely next year) with GH5 + Warriors of Rock, two fascinating mixed bags

(P.S. anyone interested in guesting on S3 should hit me up in the hiatus period 👀)

me, before recording: "i don't think I have a ton to say about Metallica"

me, hours later: *puts in nearly 3 hours talking about Guitar Hero: Metallica*

Deeply bizarre, silly episode where I fixate on the over-the-top orchestral song and we spend a ton of time goofing on Some Kind of Monster
On the season finale of Pod Hero, we're joined by @marcyani.me as we tackle the setlist for Guitar Hero: Metallica (2009).

Jackass 3D is back in theaters this weekend, so now's a great time to revisit one of my favorite things I've written this year about the series ❤️
Hi, I'm Natalie Marlin, and this is Laughing With The Pain (my @bwdr.bsky.social essay on Jackass being an unconventional form of community, finding queer belonging, and displacing the prevalence of trans pain)
Jackass: Laughing With the Pain
One of Jackass’s perpetual charms is that it feels like it can belong to anybody, that anybody can become a part of it.

Was so so fun putting this poster together for my favorite place to experience a movie—Twin Cities folks, I highly recommend coming out to see these films this weekend, especially THE INTRUDER!
Abbie Phelps designed this poster for our upcoming weekend dedicated William Shatner, before he would become known as Captain Kirk. Two long neglected and consistently underrated films both newly restored and deserving of a second look.

“Welcome, Mr. President and Madam First Lady!”
<strange, muffled Eastern European accent> “Am I Melania? Or am I—“ <rips off hat and clock> “Geeeeeene Parmesan, at your service?”

Loving Melania entering her Grim Reaper mode. Just needs a scythe!

Had a blast talking with ecstatic black metal superstars @agriculturemusic.bsky.social for @stereogum.bsky.social about all the many inspirations in music, queer literature, and art that influenced their amazing upcoming record The Spiritual Sound
Agriculture On How Zen Buddhism, Lou Reed, Bob Dylan, & More Influenced 'The Spiritual Sound'
It can be so hard to succinctly pin down what goes into the “ecstatic black metal” of Los Angeles band Agriculture that sometimes that self-proclaimed label feels incomplete. At the very least, the ba...

Had an amazing, all-over-the-map conversation with @giantclaw.bsky.social for @thequietus.com about how reinventing pop forms outside the rigors of commerce, abstracted sampling, the repetitions of experimental composition, and the Chili's Babyback Ribs jingle play parts in his incredible new record
The Shape of Free Pop to Come: Giant Claw Interviewed
Keith Rankin, aka Giant Claw, speaks to Natalie Marlin about leaning deep into pop music, carving it all up and assembling something completely unique on new album Decadent Stress Chamber

SO thrilled to have Tilley back on so soon, especially for this wild, iconic stretch of songs in the GH3 endgame

Knew this one would be an all-timer the second Tilley piled on an already completed bit and turned it into a running joke the entire rest of the episode
On this episode of Pod Hero, we're joined by Tilley Komorny of @homeiswhereforever.bsky.social to talk the final stretch of songs from the original setlist of Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock.
