♥️ Fairuz

When I first shouted out this band, I gave the FFO: Broadcast, Can, the United States of America. Love this cover!

sorry

Underneath sounds like turn-of-millennium Zao with deathcore riffs and slam snares, so I'm into it, ofc. underneathpa.bandcamp.com/track/finishin…

My Les Rallizes Dénudés cup runneth over...

I'd never heard Sarah Hennies' mid-'90s Louisville skronk post-hardcore band before now! Major FFO: Rodan, Slint, Fugazi. Thanks Temporary Residence Ltd. for putting this together! neroky.bandcamp.com/album/lp314

10 years ago today, NPR Music launched its new homepage with T-Pain's autotune-less Tiny Desk; it changed the game for both. (I pushed the button.) npr.org/2014/10/29/359…

Viking's Choice mixtape No. 108 Featuring Lolomis' industrial punk, Jeff Parker's autumnal jazz, KassieKrut's noisy banger, Yara Asmar's accordion drone, Serpent Throne's avant-garde black metal. npr.org/2019/06/17/526…

Great to see Yara Asmar getting love on NPR Music thanks to Lars Gotrich 🍷🌊

Sheer Mag, to me, not only embodies the edges of rock but also its spirit of fun. So, yeah, when Sheer Mag asked me to find a bagpipe player for its Tiny Desk, we found Tim Carey, who played the first-ever WrestleMania. RIDICULOUS. And perfect. youtube.com/watch?v=eHMv0t…

I've said it before and I'll say it again: Sheer Mag is the greatest living American rock band npr.org/2024/10/31/g-s…

Mount Eerie songs called "Wind & Fog" directly into my veins pwelverumandsun.bandcamp.com/track/wind-fog

The legend grows.

Goodbye. It’s time. I’m here… vikingschoice.org IG: totalvibration I signed up for the other place, but don’t really plan to dive in right away.
