4/ No more glorification or rationalization of violence. I'm not going to pull punches - I think Donald Trump, and his celebration of January 6th, has done more to normalize political violence than any other American. He should apologize and put those people back in jail.

The Big Ego label / studio has been having some very lame landlord / lease issues, resulting in $30K's worth of legal fees.

Give what you can — and check out an @aquariumdrunkard.com baker's dozen of amazing Big Ego releases from over the years. aquariumdrunkard.com/2025/09/10/a...

rec of the day: EMERGENCY GROUP "mind screen" (big ego LP) same label as watt's great mssv brings us this not-exactly-new-but-still-fresh slab from a brooklyn quartet w/ a post-fusion, post-canterbury ramble with some prickly edges & psych gtr add-ons.

Thank you @jeffmosley81.bsky.social 🙌

Glad people are digging the shorter pieces. This one has been a personal fave for a while so im thrilled it’s finally shared!

Another ambitious album from Emergency Group. In my opinion, they are the best Jazz/kraurock/kosmiche band to date. Their entire catalog is flabbergasting. Thanks @brentsirota.bsky.social for the heads up for the record store day release. Thumbs up!

BTW the new one from E Group is another banger - tracks are shorter than prior releases, all between 4 and 9m, and I'm a little surprised to say I like it at least as much as the longform material. Still at the intersection of jam, jazz, and komische tho

Listen to Dave tonight (and always).
Tonight on my radio show, "It's Complicated" (an hour of prog and prog-adjacent music): an interview with @sidsmith.bsky.social, frequent writer on the subject of prog and author of "In the Court of King Crimson." 7:00 p.m. ET. Listen at wfmu.org or via the magical @wfmu.bsky.social app.

Can't articulate what is going on w/ Emergency Group, but we loved seeing them live (and later, the Mind Screen LP). Splash o' those endlessly riveting fusion-era Miles comps (Big Fun, Get Up With It), Devotion-era John McLaughlin, but also like good, propulsive post-punk stuff? Anyways its great
Also, to reiterate: We're appearing at TV Eye in Ridgewood this Tuesday. Come see us.

Thank you @brentsirota.bsky.social! Means a lot 🙇‍♂️

New tape out today on bandcamp. Come see us Tuesday at TV Eye in Brooklyn. emergencygroup.bandcamp.com/album/bag-of...
