This week’s #favoritesongofalltimeoftheweek took all of 10 seconds to win me over. It’s the kind of song I gravitate to instantly. @nationoflanguage.bsky.social new track inept Apollo youtu.be/xjCgSSepzrA?...

🧵(music thread) I love the band @nationoflanguage.bsky.social 1. I want to share some videos from the bands that seem to be part of their DNA from back in the 80s 2. They have released new music - which you should 100% check out (I am hoping a new album is coming too) youtu.be/xjCgSSepzrA?...

But, @nationoflanguage.bsky.social seem to have so much fun...like, watch the juxtaposition b/w the super-serious parts of this video and the parts where they start doing dance breaks (love this) youtu.be/7ox_SnQOpXk?...

NEW ON BLUESKY: I think most of you are probably familiar with @nationoflanguage.bsky.social - wonderful post-punk/synth pop band from Brooklyn, consisting of Ian Richard Devaney, Aidan Noell and Alex MacKay. They released three wonderful records, I love all of them #indie #music #alternative 🎧
