I’m all for cool graphic design, but if your LP label doesn’t clearly state the RPM and side, I hate it.

I avoid reading reviews of my recent work, but I do remember writers who slagged off my early stuff and keep tabs on their careers. Didn’t like the record I made in ‘06, eh? According to Google you spent the next 10 yrs making clickbait before fading into obscurity in ‘16. I give yr career a 3.2

🚨BIG BOTCH NEWS COMING MAY 7th

SUMAC & MOOR MOTHER “The Film” is out. A vital, intense, truly heavy record. “America pissed and shit itself, no diaper”

What’s with folks upset by people that stand once the plane arrives at the gate? I’ve been folded in half for 9 hours shoulder to shoulder w/ a stranger w/ my knees against the seat in front of me battling for armrest space. For the love of god spread out once the seatbelt light is off.

Looking forward to these shows and festivals in Europe this Summer. Ultha is Joining us on all club shows and special guests Deafheaven for the show in Leige. Tickets on sale Friday, Jan 31 at 11am CET

Wish we lived in a country that was more concerned with protecting kids from getting shot at school and less concerned with “protecting” their kids from playing volleyball with a trans classmate

Hey Europe! Let’s hang

Got a collaborative LP with SUMAC and Moor Mother coming out April 25 on Thrill Jockey sumac.bandcamp.com/album/the-film

I will be at peace with this world when “Raw Deal” by Judas Priest is held in the same regard as “It’s Raining Men” in the gay canon.

I’ll be honest… X always felt pretty toxic and Threads seems like a bunch of randos trolling for engagement. Only joined bluesky cuz in its infancy it seemed like a private little queer club. Not sure how long I’ll last here now that it’s not invite-only but gonna hang as long as it feels fun.
