hey @murderxbryan.bsky.social found this is in the back of the Oct 19 1995 issue of Rolling Stone

I wrote about U2’s Days of Ash and Easter Lily EPs, which were released with minimal fanfare on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday, respectively. It’s the best U2 music in a long time, though I admit this is faint praise. open.substack.com/pub/fluxblog...

this new Slayyyter record is really good especially this one which is like Justice at their best combined with a more unhinged version of Kesha www.youtube.com/watch?v=6BSD...

why did so many labels decide 3/27/26 was such a good release date? what was wrong with, say, 3/20 or 3/13 or even 2/27 - a little overcrowded today, right?

Like searching Matthew's feed for "what was" turns up all kinds of sharply curated stuff like this:

it must be such a psychologically bizarre thing for your full time job to be impersonating the father you never knew

I've become very pro tribute band, I think it's good to keep songs alive, I think it's good for songs to have lives beyond their creators

found it! I wish this was a real genre of music

I'm trying to find a bizarre and funny remix of Justin Bieber's "Baby" that came out not too long after the original, it's got some kind of extreme portamento effect on everything so every element of the song sounds rubbery/cartoonish/silly - anyone know where/how to find it?

who is the modern Candy Man, mixing it with love and making the world taste good?

5 songs I am extremely excited about getting to see performed by anyone, ever, for the first time tomorrow at the Michael Shannon/Jason Narducy R.E.M. tribute show: 1. I Believe 2. You Are the Everything 3. Star 69 4. Me In Honey 5. How the West Was Won and Where It Got Us

New issue with 2 playlists - rap posse cuts, late 90s dance music - plus new songs by Bebe Rexha, Yaya Bey, Gena, and John Carroll Kirby. That Kirby song is GORGEOUS. fluxblog.substack.com/p/fluxblog-5...

Are you ready to enter the Church of the Poison Mind? Have you put your faith in God and man? Good thing, where HAVE you gone?

I try not to go in on Rock Hall talk but: • hard to look at Buckley's nom without thinking they've cut the line on more significant 90s alt acts - like, yr really gonna shut out Pumpkins and Pavement and Sonic Youth for this?? • it is ABSURD to nominate P!nk before Britney

Oh you know this is going to hit 💃

I finished this article and went to his wiki to see what other Harry Styles projects I had missed and audibly gasped when the first linked article on his wiki was to a separate page about his cultural impact
