This shit RIPS, and the story behind it (Jael Holzman, the band's vocalist and bassist was a beltway reporter) is worth reading if you're as weary of the state of news media as I am.

If you ever find yourself entirely doubting the goodwill of humanity like I do seemingly daily, go find a couple thousand of your local punks (or former ska kids). Or even better, a couple dozen at a local diy show. #PUP #JeffRosenstock #EkkoAstral

been chatting with @jael.bsky.social on the side about how fucking grim engagement has been on x, which is why I dipped (in addition to it becoming an algorithmic hard veer into fascism).

in my last months I’d post stuff there to crickets. here and IG always killed by comparison + it wasn’t close.

As a dedicated iTunes user I don't get those lil wrapped videos so I made my own and put it on instagram.
If you are a user of that service you can go to watch the little reel I made for my own amusement or you can peruse the text lists and art grid 🤘

Today's find - Washington DC band Ekko Astral. They have rich, deep sound with a solid edge somewhere in the realm where Punk, Grunge and Emo meet. Remind me of Die Spitz, another band charting a new direction for female-fronted Punk bands. If #EkkoAstral is listening, please play Albuquerque.

This was a #themeweek unlike any other for me on the #365Songs project. I spent the entire week writing about new music! You can read all 7 essays at "No Wrong Notes"

We spoke to Washington, D.C.'s Ekko Astral (@ekkoastral) about their new single, “Pomegranate Tree,” which addresses the Israeli/Palestinian war. “So often people are trying to tell you how to feel. We're just trying to show people how people feel.” www.undertheradarmag.com/interviews/e...
