I also wrote about the new album by Hannah Frances, which is absolutely gorgeous. A must-hear imo.

I've written about Neko Case a bunch of times before and never felt satisfied with the finished product, but I think I did ok with her latest

'Neon Grey Midnight Green' is a sprawling and ambitious record that juxtaposes emotional highs with disorienting detours, as if to mirror the off-kilter rhythm of life itself

I have to assume most people my age discovered the Meat Puppets through Nirvana's Unplugged performance?

I wrote about one of the best punk albums of 1984.

No, not that one, the other one. (Not that one either, this one 👇)

Plus Nirvana, Oneida and a bunch of other cool records

Maybe it's because I've been listening to a lot of Johnny Cash lately but that bad take is one I'm taking personally

Hannah Frances has very quickly grown into one of my favorite contemporary artists, and her new album 'Nested in Tangles' is a complex yet warm set of progressive folk, rich in dense horn arrangements and affecting lyrics about her own process of healing

I wrote about it for @treblezine.bsky.social

Album of the Week: Hannah Frances' 'Nested in Tangles' is a richly rewarding work of musical and personal growth.
