Deadwood (rewatch)

Been a couple years so it was time to watch this again. Still probably the greatest TV show ever made. Pretty much a masterpiece. Every performance, every line of dialogue, the sets, pretty much everything about it is perfect.

MJ Lenderman - Manning Fireworks

There's a few pretty good tracks on here but otherwise this is sooooo fucking boring. A little worse than his self titled but gets bonus points for not being so blatantly derivative of Songs: Ohia.

Favorite Tracks - Wristwatch, Bark at the Moon

Chainsaw Man – The Movie: Reze Arc

Had a great time seeing this, but the movie was only alright lmao
Liked the score a lot, there was some really cool animation. Appreciate the artstyle and tone were closer to the manga than the show was. Action climax went on for what felt like forever, (cont)

One Battle After Another

Really loved this. Maybe my favorite Paul Thomas Anderson movie now. Score was insane. Extremely well paced and well shot. Great performances from pretty much the entire cast but I especially loved Benicio del Toro.

MJ Lenderman - MJ Lenderman

Bro wants to be Jason Molina SO bad, but this has none of the heart or authenticity of something like Magnolia Electric Co. Don't get the hype around this guy at all. Listening to Farewell Transmission a single time would kill the average MJ Lenderman fan

The Last Dinner Party- Prelude to Ecstasy

Pretty good, much less boring than their new album but still a bit too theatrical for my tastes.

Favorite Tracks - Nothing Matters, Caesar on a TV Screen, Burn Alive, Mirror, Sinner

The Last Dinner Party - From the Pyre

Crazy that something so theatrical could be so boring

Favorite Tracks - Agnus Dei, Count the Ways, The Scythe

Folk Bitch Trio - Now Would Be a Good Time

I'm a sucker for vocal harmonies, ans theres some very nice harmonies on here. Unfortunately the arrangements are kinda boring and every song sounds exactly the same.

Favorite Tracks - Sarah, God's a Different Sword, Cathode Ray, Foreign Bird

Wednesday - Bleeds

Idk it's aight, don't really understand the hype around this album. There's some twangy southern guitars on here that I dig but a lot of this kinda sounds like Hop Along with a much worse lead singer.

Favorite Tracks - Wasp, Bitter Everyday, Wound Up Here (By Holdin On)

Palace Music - Viva Last Blues

Love this. Really great, raw, folk-rock/alt country. Will Oldham's vocals on this are so good and Steve Albini's production gives this such a great sound.

Favorite Tracks - New Partner, Cat's Blues, Tonight's Decision (And Hereafter), Old Jerusalem, Viva Ultra

U.S. Maple - Long Hair in Three Stages

Wish I liked this a little more. It rips, but didn't leave much of an impression, and the vocals don't work for me at all. Great album art tho

Favorite Tracks - Home-Made Stuff, Letter to ZZ Top, The State is Bad, When a Man Says "Ow"

David Byrne - Who is the Sky?

Very corny and the arrangements are kinda eh, but Byrne is such a charismatic performer the album is mostly charming overall. She Explains Things to Me is very sweet/the most autistic song I've ever heard.

Favorite Tracks - She Explains Things to Me, The Avant Garde

Geese - Getting Killed

I like every song on here a lot, but the album is kinda less than the sum of its parts. Cameron Winter is such a dynamic vocalist but he's giving a very similar performance on every song on here. (cont.)

Japanese Breakfast - For Melancholy Brunettes (& Sad Women)

This is pretty good but its sooooo funny to me that Jeff Bridges does guest vocals on a song on here. It's not a bad song but like, what's he doing here lmao

Favorite Tracks - Honey Water, Mega Circuit, Picture Window

Chance the Rapper - Acid Rap

Set my last.fm back up on a whim and this was the last thing i had scrobbled in like 2014, probably havent heard it since lmao. Don't love it as much as I used to but it still kinda hits.

Favorite Tracks - Cocoa Butter Kisses, Chain Smoker, Pusha Man, Paranoia

Tyler, The Creator - DON'T TAP THE GLASS

This is really fun, hella underrated imo. I like it way more than Call Me If You Get Lost and Chromakopia. Couple duds on here but it's basically front to back bangers.

Favorite Tracks - Big Poe, Mommanem, Don't Tap That Glass / Tweakin', Down Bad

Earl Sweatshirt - Live Laugh Love

Not my favorite Earl but still really good. Love the super warm production

Favorite Tracks - Tourmaline, Static, Exhaust, Live

CMAT - Euro-Country

This is good but CMAT is way too close to CBAT and I can't stop thinking about it

Favorite Tracks - Janis Joplining, Euro-Country, The Jamie Oliver Petrol Station, Running/Planning

Adults Picture Book - New Edition

This was very cute

Fujii Kaze - Prema

There's a couple good songs on here but I didnt care for the production and the slower tracks in the back half didn't do anything for me

Favorite Tracks - Casket Girl, I Need U Back, Hachikō, Prema

sombr - I Barely Know Her

Like 50/50 bangers/super corny
The bangers are really good tho

Favorite Tracks - Crushing, Under the Mat, 12 to 12, Back to Friends

Mitski - Laurel Hell

Like this a little less than Bury Me at Makeout Creek but its pretty good. Prefer the poppier songs on here to the slower stuff

Favorite Tracks - Working for the Knife, Should've Been Me, Stay Soft

Mitski - Bury Me at Makeout Creek

Like this a lot. Was not expecting it to be as noisy as it is

Favorite Tracks - Francis Forever, Drunk Walk Home, Texas Reznikov, Townie, Last Words of a Shooting Star

Dora Jar - No Way To Relax When You Are On Fire

This is pretty good, theres a couple songs on here I really like a lot, but its only 40 minutes and feels like an hour

Favorite Tracks - Ragdoll, No Way To Relax When You Are On Fire, Puppet, She Loves Me
September 30, 2025 at 5:46 PM
The Army, The Navy - Fruit For Flies

Pretty decent indie folk EP, kinda reminds me of Adrianne Lenker but not as good. Some nice harmonies on here and the song writings not bad.

Favorite Tracks - Persimmon, Vienna (In Memoriam)
