One of my favourite French indie acts returning with a fantastic new single. www.youtube.com/watch?v=x2jo...
I mean, seriously, that bridge still gets me every time. www.youtube.com/watch?v=MoG1...
…segue into Interpol's post-Antics high point 'Pioneer to the Falls' playing over Billy Crudup browsing Safari on his MacBook. Mad Men could never.
The problem with only praising good TV is that we lack a language for genuine madness like The Morning Show, which in its most recent episode had a scene shot and lit like an erotica B-movie with a randomly appearing voice over of "I fell into bed with the one person who could blow up my life"…
Wish it was Reputation vol 2! :/
Always looking forward to a new Zara Larsson album, because they seem to always feel 90% forgettable but then have 1 song I really connect with, and on her latest it‘s "The Ambition" youtu.be/lQgSKSLMYWM?...
Gotta appreciate Nation of Language for being so prolific and dependable. Signs of them stretching a little more on the new record plus some real gems. youtu.be/9HKFlXfgWwc?...
Very sorry they did this to you but all the very best for whatever golden opportunity lies next! Fingers crossed!
Some news~ as the kids say~ I got the RTO ultimatum and I'm leaving Pitchfork. Read more on Instagram. There are two full-time women remaining at the publication! That FEELS BAD! www.instagram.com/p/DO6L-fIDYve/
(okay I know it's Dan Nigro, whatever)
If I was with in the studio with whoever it was that produced "The Subway"
New Molly Nilsson and all is good with the world. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cv5z...
Fave tracks so far Shapeshifter, GRWM, Broken Glass and What Was That, still.
Second listen of the new Lorde record already quite a bit better than the first, but can’t fully shake the initial Solar Power impression deja-vu just yet (was obvs very wrong there).
Great to see the P4k Sunday Review cover one of Francoise Hardy's most interesting records. Maybe not my personal favorite of hers, but a wonderful album nonetheless. pitchfork.com/reviews/albu...
The new(-ish) Youth Lagoon album is so beautiful, probably my favourite of the year so far. www.youtube.com/watch?v=krbt...
Spent some time in Oman. Very beautiful country.
Feels like yesterday Jeremy and I were goofing around on Tumblr, and now one of us has his debut novel reviewed (positively!) in the NYT. So proud. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/02/b...
Here I was all these years listening to my treasured 128kbit mp3 rips… no more. Several of the band's best songs on it imo (Rhododendrons, Atonement, Selfish Son, England) and just a killer 2000s indie album on its own. What a gift to finally have this! www.youtube.com/watch?v=QFUZ...
Was reaching for one of the best February records of all time (Bloc Party's Silent Alarm) when I noticed the band had *finally* released the A Weekend in the City b-sides on streaming after all these years. 🙏
Oh very nice! Have seen him play some of the anthemic cuts like Easy/Lucky/Free and I Believe in Symmetry live on other occasions; was really delighted to hear them.
Day 1 “Digital Ash is the better album” here (they’re both pretty great) www.stereogum.com/2293942/brig...
I did not! Thank you for the suggestion, will give it a spin.

Thank you! Absolutely.
Absolutely no end to the contempt for this man and everyone enabling & in bed with him. www.theguardian.com/world/2024/d...
I’m so sorry to hear this… it’s such a gaping loss. We lost our family dog earlier this year as well and whenever I’m at my parents I still expect her behind every corner. :/
Got a new OLED TV this year and Ripley was the first thing I watched on it, so maybe that clouded my judgement, but every frame of it felt impossibly beautiful.
