This little birdie was just having lunch outside my window. Anyone got any idea what species? It's really tiny.

Here's my favorite Joan Jett song, just because.

Hey there, I've got a new song coming out very soon... It's called 'White Geraniums' & you can pre-save it here: www.emilybarker.com/whitegeraniu... Looking forward to sharing this song with you. 💕 Emily #newsingle #newsong #presave #whitegeraniums #hitandrun

Cancelled my Spotify subscription today and switched to Qobuz once and for all. Qobuz guarantees much better sound quality, they pay better royalties to artists and they give you the option to buy the music you play. An ancient concept, I know, but I still like buying music.

Hm. I expected more from Deep Sea Diver, to be honest. Great songs, but their drummer is a lumberjack who lacks any real swing and subtlety.

Hanging out at the London Calling festival at Paradiso. Great gig by Jay Som. Less impressed by Spirit of the Beehive. Really looking forward to Deep Sea Diver.

Did a sleep apnea test last night. Failed miserably. Didn't sleep for even a second, thanks to that tube stuck up my nose, and called it quits after five hours of tossing and turning. Would definitely recommend it to anyone who thinks a good night's sleep is overrated.

AllMusic Staff Pick Buffy Sainte-Marie It's My Way! This is one of the most scathing topical folk albums ever made. Sainte-Marie sings in an emotional, vibrato-laden voice of war, drugs, sex, and most telling, the mistreatment of Native Americans.

Hey friends! Help us to record our debut album❤️🙏 You can help us out so we can record a pile of punk bangers! whydonate.com/nl/fundraisi...

I'm successfully chasing the autumnal gloom away with "Shy Girl", the new Hollie Cook album.

Are you a vinylhead with a sense of humor? If you are, and you have an album in your collection featuring the 1950s classic "Sh-Boom" by The Crew Cuts, play it at 45 RPM. I promise you, it'll make your day.

Definitely the most insane all-in-one-take music video I've ever seen. Especially once the flamethrower enters the picture...

Another day, another underwhelming breakup record. This time it's Madison Cunningham's "Ace". I like it better than Shires' "Nobody's Girl" and lots better than Isbell's "Foxes in the Snow", but it's still a self-absorbed breakup record filled with songs that don't really go anywhere.

Got an e-mail just now: would I be interested in seeing pop country superstar Luke Combs do a stadium show in Amsterdam? No. Seriously, I'd rather gargle with broken glass.

Altijd fijn, zo'n post die je weer goed op scherp zet en je stresslevels even lekker door het dak jaagt.

I've got a lot of bad people living rent-free in my head, but that's okay, because I know how much the weird music I play all the time drives them up the wall.

The new Jay Som album - "Belong" - is like a mellow oasis of mellowness in a world that could definitely stand to be a bit more mellow. I'm liking it a lot.

I told that thrash metal band that, yeah, sure I can stand in for your drummer for one gig. I hadn't played thrash metal ever in my life, but I totally pulled it off, and I don't just say so myself. It also says so on Wikipedia.

I'm afraid I just switched off "Nobody's Girl". I made it to the 9th track - the one that mentions Billy Joel - but too much is too much. Yeah, I get it, it's a breakup record. But is there a law I'm not aware of that prohibits the inclusion of memorable tunes on breakup records?

It's a thing of beauty. Soaring tunes, clean and crisp arrangements and production, yet hazy and shoegazey when it needs to be. Their best work since "Our Hope", I'd say.

YESSS!!! The new Hitsujibungaku album has arrived! I thought it'd be another 2 days... Putting on headphones now. TTYL.

Oh no, this is embarrassing 🙈 Word has got out about my donation of over €0.99 to the local owl sanctuary. I must have forgotten to tick the “Anonymous” box by accident 🤦‍♂️ Now everyone's hailing me as a hero. Please, everyone, this isn't about me! The staff at the sanctuary have done just as much!

Still getting invitations for upcoming alt-country pre-sales. This time it's Brandy Clark, who's coming to Europe next month. But I've pretty much given up on alt-country by now, save for a few exceptions. 1/2

It really shouldn't come as a surprise anymore, because I've been a fan since the first album. But @divinecomedyhq.bsky.social keep up their not-a-bad-album-in-their-discography winning streak with the new record "Rainy Sunday Afternoon". Good grief, it's good and then some.

Ik maak niet vaak selfies, maar soms sta je zo bij een bushalte te wachten en zie je ineens een sticker op het glas... Nja, zo denk ik er dus over.

Playing all the Shame albums in order to prepare for tonight's show at the Amsterdam Milky Way Max. Second time I'll be seeing them, but the last time was 6 or 7 years ago. They've built a damned impressive discography since then, but I think I like the new "Cutthroat" album best.

With box office revenues falling, Hollywood could boost profits by combining popular genres. My idea? A violent mafia film that's also a heartwarming kids' movie; A toddler is appointed boss of the mafia. The kid slowly teaches the mobsters to have fun and they start doing murders more playfully ❤️

Just realized that a certain singer-songwriter whom I shall not name has been charging me $5 a month since 2021 for a Patreon account that hasn't been updated in any way, shape or form over that entire time. She literally charged me $240 for absolutely nothing! That's a grift, and it ends now.

L.A. Witch at the Amsterdam Milky Way, just now. Up next: The Buttertones, whom I've never heard of before.

Oh my, BlueSky won't let me upload a video from the P***y Riot show I saw tonight, because BlueSky is run by a bunch of pearl clutching prudes.

If you see this, post a concert picture that you took

NUMBER 3 IN THE MIDWEEK CHART! Read at: shorturl.at/dJcNe We are thrilled that 'Rainy Sunday Afternoon' is at #3 in the official midweek album chart. That's the highest independent release this week! Thanks to everyone who has bought or streamed the album, your support means the world to us ❤️

The new releases from Japan keep piling up. My playlist for this year has now passed the 170 song mark, and I'm spending so much time checking and adding newfound tracks that I hardly have time to actually play the list. Now that's a first world problem.

Morning all. I do hope your zone is less flooded than mine. Have a good day.

This video is INSANE! (The song is pretty good too. Wicked guitar riff!)

Just found out that one of my favorite social media friends passed away last week, after a long and well lived life. Rest in peace, Mother Mary. We never actually met but I always savoured our online conversations. I'll miss you so much.

For all the political junkies out there... 😎😝✌️

When will I ever learn not to get involved in online discussions with self-proclaimed 'Political Junkies'? They're nothing but exercises in futility!
