one of my early impressions of "Streets of Minneapolis" was that Bruce was doing his best Bob Dylan tribute with that one

I think I also liked pretty much every Minneapolis ICE protesty song from a name musician more than Bruce but I think the Bruce airplay on the community supported station I listen to has tapered off

Unrelated: you know what band ruled? The Cult

I don't think it's a particularly good song either -- the vocals just don't fit the parts -- but the lyrics are fantastic, and of course that withering indictment at the start is perfect.

The Violet Grohl album ("Be Sweet to Me") is out on various evil and non-evil places that stream music.

I posted a track or two awhile ago. So the one I liked the most of the songs I just heard was "Often Others"

There'll be some comparisons for the sound that might either be lazy or inevitable. It's more "stuff that rocked in the 90s but didn't get it's due" than "Foo Fighters" but I think the Foo Fighters comps will be inevitable. Will the people who kinda want rock to be back actually dare to like this or think "this could be made by someone else and her dad is Dave Grohl".. eh, who knows.

If we just all boost stuff that rocks, then we'll get an Olivia Rodrigo rock album (bwahaha.. pop is ridiculously hotter than any sort of rock these days, so that would be a risky decision). BTW, the next Olivia album is out in 2 weeks, prepare accordingly

The idea of someone from Belle and Sebastian writing a World Cup song doesn’t compute in my head.

Review of the new Olivia Rodrigo from listening to it once at 2am: I liked the non-ballad parts of it more than the ballads

there's also a track with Robert Smith for the benefit of various old people (not their first work together)

And so I checked all the registered historical facts
And I was shocked into shame to discover... it's too hard to choose the Queen is Dead as their 'best' album, but I can confirm (to my tastes) that it's amongst the 'best' albums of all time.

I think just now eating lunch is the first time I’ve ever heard Kernkraft 400 played on the radio/in house music system. And it was right after This Charming Man by the Smiths.

okay, i'm liking the Beck/Sierra Ferrell duet version of "Ride Lonesome" move than the Beck solo version

the Beck only version, for reference

Beck is a guy with a "Possible fifteenth studio album (2022-present" section on his wikipedia, so who knows when he'll get around to his first album since 2019

I wonder if Beck will do a country themed album after his colabs with Sierra Ferrell and Orville Peck

In one of my college courses on Language in America had a chapter on Spanish and "Spanglish" in America so I was able to reference Manic Hispanic in my assignment. And I mentioned this song after the reading talked about the term "joto" being reclaimed in a similar way to "queer"

In the color version, you can tell she’s wearing tights,, ironically, which look like some of Valiant’s 1986 tights.
