I like words. And the Cure and QPR and photography and bogey golf. 98% of my posts are about music and 93% of the posts I read are about music.
I need to peruse Best Albums of 2025 lists to see what I missed. My list would be
“Soft New Magic Dream,” Black Moth Super Rainbow
“Don’t Tap the Glass,” Tyler
“Who Let the Dogs Out,” Lambrini Girls
perhaps the latest from Ela Minus, Reeko, Daniel Avery, Haim, Skullcrusher, Djrum
and then…
