Tomas Lindberg, vocalist for At the Gates, has died at 52. It’s impossible to overstate the impact At the Gates had on me musically. I even arranged their song “And the World Returned” for string quartet and that’s what my wife walked down the aisle to at our wedding.
He will be deeply missed.

Today @nerdsofafeather.bluesky.social I discuss MENTAL HYGIENE, the last word on 1950s-1960s classroom educational films. It’s a blast to read, and also helps illuminate the broader social dynamics of the time.
Hint: the 1950s weren’t some golden paradise.

New music day. This is an old song, a folk standard, but these days I felt like doing a foot-stomping, hand-clapping old-time end-times jam as a way to sing back against the dread. You know the dread.
Plus, my daughter’s on chorus vocals. It’s on all the streamers.

I think the most embarrassing thing about Trump is how he is such a scared little boy. When a reporter has enough guts to confront him, he is so afraid of getting in trouble he runs away like a child. “This is the first I’m hearing. I had nothing to do with it. I don’t know anything about it.”
