Lovely Telephone Numbers review from Rosy Overdrive:
"...Rubenstein is remarkable in how he manages to carve out his own signature style while giving so much of himself over to the towering jangle pop, college rock, and power pop that’s shaped the entire scene."
"Scarecrow II" is out tomorrow!

I hate AI with a fiery passion and I resent all these companies attempting to push it down our throats. But you have to admire on some level their ability to create products that literally no one wants. It’s an incredible commitment to failure.

I can’t

Email I got from Carvana that says “Shaq’s AI twin wants to talk cars with you!” There’s a picture of Shaq smiling in front of his computer with text that says “Chat with Shaq’s A.I. Twin.”

Raven Sings the Blues gets The Cords' debut album just right. Out now!
"...an album full of exhilarating highs and crushing lows, though even the most melancholy moments are still buoyed by enough sweetness that they’ll put a smile on your sour mug. ... It’s an instant classic."

Súper a tope con el debut de The Cords, un dúo formado por dos adolescentes escocesas que hacen un indie-pop en el que hay retazos de Talulah Gosh, The Primitives o Tiger Trap. Y todo esto con una batería potente y una producción excelente. donteatheyellowsnow2.wordpress.com/2025/10/06/t...
