Admittedly I haven't been following Of Monsters and Men for awhile but I've been digging the singles from their upcoming LP. Then they dropped a new 8-min track "Fruit Bat" last week and it has wrecked me. Just found this live performance of it and oh so beautiful: www.youtube.com/watch?v=rXC6...

Weird and awesome album release day this Friday, Oct. 3: Thrice, Stay Inside, Rocket, Taylor Swift. Last big release day of the year as well I think?

Wild and surreal weekend seeing Poor Old Lu, the Prayer Chain, and Mortal. My high school senior self, who would have called them 3 of my top 5 fav bands of the time 30 years ago, wouldn’t believe it. “Bright Wings” with @dkthedrummer.bsky.social still feels like a dream!

New Fantastic Four film was fun, really enjoyed it. Best Marvel film of the last 5 (?) years maybe? I know the bar is low. But it was simple and direct and the 60's set pieces were terrific. Money well spent.

You were told people these days only want singles. No, Spotify wants singles. People want hour+ long music experiences. That can be a playlist, but that can also be an album.
