An absolutely stupid insane day for new releases and I review nine of them

I had given up hope this would ever happen.

UGH!

Dear labels and artists who use DISCO for promos, please change the MP3 bitrate settings to 320k, it's set to a default of 160k and i'm sure no artist wants their music heard like that

Kinda insane week for new releases...check out Silverbacks, PYPY and High Vis, among the many others I review

this show was a start-to-finish wow

I reviewed the new Cure album (spoiler alert: it's very good)

It was fun getting talk with stephen morris about all things New Order with a focus on 'Brotherhood' but we covered a lot of ground.

Here's our Best Albums list, I wrote a few of the blurbs

Here's my Indie Basement Best Albums of 2024 list. I also made an eight-hour playlist with lots more of my favorite stuff of the year

Dream Team!

MEMORIALS!!!!

sorry

The Pavement movie is still titled ‘Pavements’ despite what other websites may tell you, but this is a funny FYC trailer for the fake biopic within it

Always fun to talk to Dan, and Destroyer's new album is great

This week's reviews column is up. Check out Le Volume Courbe and King Husky in particular
