outraged they chose "long cool woman in a black dress" because it seems decidedly the point that she is not wearing a dress of any kind

I don't know man, I've seen some people December pretty hard

crazy to think that the jokey guy doing stiff robot arms and saying “er-ror… does not compute” in a flat monotone has only been around for 50 years or so. feels like that guy has been here since the dawn of time

Hot take: A football is not a ball

Our founders, though deeply flawed, understood that democracy requires an informed citizenry and a government accountable to it people. That’s why the press is the only profession protected by the Constitution. It’s also why autocrats and oligarchs seek to control and destroy it.

If the movie ends with Donald retching his guts out, I might just buy a ticket.

I dunno, maybe some new vinyl can help

Happy 2026! We're kicking off the new year with our usual weekly roundup of new #vinyl reissues. But it's a slow week, so we also put together a last-minute look back at a few things that brought joy to our turntables last year. And now we never need to speak of 2025 again.

A year in review As the holidays wrap up and the calendar comes to a close, it seems like the right time for a quick look back. We launched this newsletter at the beginning of September and are humbled and honored by ...

Boy is my face red. I thought it was Mary Weiss, beloved singer of the Shangri-Las who passed away in 2024

something about Wario dividends

is this idiotic speech meant to be damage control for his colossally low approval numbers? if so then that’s very very very funny

if those are all complete takes, that's 2 full hours of "Joey" right there

Review: The Rolling Stones in 1976 A deluxe box set explores the Black and Blue era. Hello again. Today we continue to play catch-up with all those fancy vinyl box sets that came out during the past couple of months to seduce gift-giv...

In today's newsletter, we plant our juicy lips on the Rolling Stones' deluxe box set for their 1976 album, Black and Blue. Wait, come back. That was just a figure of speech. Our lips are not juicy and they didn't touch anything. We wrote a review, that's all! #vinyl #vinylsky #rollingstones

Review: The Jimi Hendrix Experience A new box set charts the course of 1967’s Axis: Bold as Love. We’re still catching up on the many vinyl reissues, re-releases, and box sets that have landed this fall, and today we dig into the new d...

The new Jimi Hendrix Experience box set does the unthinkable: It finds previously unreleased Hendrix stuff that's absolutely worth hearing. We reviewed the #vinyl set, which charts the making of 1967's Axis: Bold as Love and also includes phenomenal-sounding pressings of the LP.

Mac: check it out dawg, I just deleted the entire paragraph for you

It’s going to be so difficult to teach future students about this era. “But I don’t understand,” they’ll say over and over. “That doesn’t make SENSE.”

Reviews: Neil Young | Ray Charles Black Friday has come and gone, but there’s still plenty of new vinyl to listen to. Today we go long on a few new reissues of note: The 50th anniversary double-LP edition of Neil Young’s Tonight’s the...

The Vinyl Cut Vinyl news and in-depth reviews.

A friend and I write @vinylcut.net, a newsletter about #vinyl records. The topic is a lot less important than most in this thread, but we’re independent, opinionated, and are holding steady as arts & culture journalism continues to vanish.

This was an insane undertaking but a really fun one. If you're checking out #RSD Black Friday this week, this is a must-read. #vinyl #vinylsky

our #vinyl newsletter is very good, plz read

Today's rundown of this week's new #vinyl reissues is a big one, including artists you might have heard of like the Beatles, Prince, Fela Kuti, the Replacements, Smashing Pumpkins, and Zbigniew Namysłowski. What's that? You haven't heard of Zbigniew Namysłowski? Well, then, click through, friend.

There's a new VU+Nico on #vinyl that's cut directly from the master tape. If that's the sort of thing that interests you, you really should subscribe to my vinyl newsletter, @vinylcut.net.

I, too, have written countless tomes on my telephone whilst hiking, skipping, scuttling, standing stationary, or gently sliding downhill

Review: Patti Smith, 50 years on The 50th anniversary reissue of Horses includes an all-analog cut of Smith’s 1975 debut and a second LP of outtakes. Few debuts are as striking and complete a statement of purpose as Horses, the firs...

We missed a golden opportunity to post a review of the 50th anniversary #vinyl reissue of Patti Smith's 'Horses' ON the actual 50th anniversary (Nov 10). Well, here it is, two days late. Happy birthday, 'Horses.' (The reissue's excellent, although our pressing wasn't the best.) #vinylsky #pattismith
