SINE at Mechanismus Seattle #industrialmusc #gothic #ebm 🎧

In Seattle for the weekend 😊 First Thursday night act of the Mechanismus #industrialmusic festival in Seattle: NUDA #gothic #ebm #musicsky 🎧

Happy World Goth Day! My contributions: clips from two live shows attended in the last ten days, both at New World Brewery in Tampa, FL. Rosegarden Funeral Party from Dallas, TX and Diavol Strain from Chile (in a reply b/c the sound quality is but so-so) #worldgothday #musicsky 🎧

I've long wished Bandcamp would introduce a feature like this. And now it's here ☺️ This will be my weekend 🫤 🎧

Modern alchemy

This Friday, May 2nd, is Bandcamp Friday. From midnight to midnight PST, we'll once again waive our revenue share, ensuring more money goes directly to artists. Mark your calendars and get those wishlists ready!

Lategram #livemusic post from last Wednesday's Tampa performance by #indiepop group Lunar Vacation. Great show! 💙🎧

Vinyl recommendation post: Latest from Black Doldrums "In Limerence" from 2024. One of my fav #gothic #postpunk albums of last year, alongside Nurnberg's "Adkaz". Finally was able to snag the physical from Fuzzclub's membership program. Truly one not to be missed. 💙 #goth #darkwave 🎧 #musicsky

Short clip from tonight's performance in Tampa by THE DOLLYROTS. Early all ages show. Lots of kids in attendance with their #punkrock parents. This was the closing song. They're really into audience participation obviously 💙🎧

New single! Night Tapes continues their streak of luscious #indiepop ear worms. Really one of my favorite modern pop groups. 💙🎧 #musicsky youtu.be/PvqBqvQ8iys?...

Lol right

I am not a IL resident but I still contributed to Kat's U.S. Congressional campaign bc it's important to support progressive anti-establishment candidates whenever wherever they are running (includes Dem party establisment)

Damn the new Acid Dad song is 🔥 mixing into their usual psych rock sounds some late 80s #dreampop kinda Ocean Blue vibes 🎧 #musicsky #psychedelic #levitation youtu.be/ZKVSxwkR1vY?...

A highly accurate & rather obvious summary of the modern American political system: the Democratic Party is in reality the Conservative party in all but name. Its practice of strict seniority & super-delegates ensures no left progressivism will ever take over, by design youtu.be/KFp6DXhXObI?...

Must read: Mahmoud Khalil speaks out for the first time since his arrest by the Trump administration in an exclusive letter, dictated over the phone to his family, from ICE detention in Louisiana.

Sometimes I really miss living in Tempe AZ. I'd be so there 😞

There is a word, among others, for people like Schumer and the other Dems who voted the way they did today: QUISLING. They're all quislings. Primary every one en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quisling

Unfortunately my Senator is a far-right Republican but I did contact him about this, just to make another voice heard. But if you're a US citizen and have a Democratic Senator, it might make a difference 1. Vote NO on Cloture AND 2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill.

New on vinyl for the #recordcollection from GLARING (Anna Nin) combines two older EPs: "Hope" and "DR666" on marble grey variant FFO dark haunting melancholic #gothic #etherealmusic YT video in my comment...

Deep dive into that BS doc produced by a gang of corporate Democrats claiming the best way for the party to move forward is to basically be moderate Republicans i.e. do more of exactly why Kamala Harris lost 😠 ...and who paid for that resort getaway anyhoo?

My Bandcamp Friday 🎧 MAGNAVOLT #cyberpunk #synthwave #ebm OKURUTO Japanese anime-inspired #retrowave #electronica Haunt Me #gothic #postpunk Celestial Hex #darkwave Traffik Island #psychedelica The Savage Blush (discography) #psychedelic #surfrock ...

The Dow has dropped 1300 points over the last two days as Trump defiantly plows forward with tariffs against Mexico, Canada and China — America's most prominent trading partners.

Random thought of the day: Do past arguments against starting a genuinely progressive 3rd party (splitting the left Democratic vote thereby benefiting the Republican right) have the same force in these days of our radically altered political reality? Are the standard premises even valid anymore? 🤔

OMG Hakeem Jeffries your house is on fire! Alert the neighbors! Call the fire department! Grab a hose! HAKEEM: Let me finish my latte and consult with the HOA board and draw up a strategy paper

Short video of last night's performance by the awesome Icelandic trio Kaelen Mikla, opening for #blackgaze band ALCEST with support from Japanese post-rockers MONO in Tampa FL #gothic #postpunk #darkwave 🎧 💙

So now after Musk's heist of the US Treasury, is Fort Knox his next knock-off job? We're at peak cartoon supervillain point here www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

A viewpoint: why "economic growth" aka "GDP" is a lie. If healthcare & education were universal & affordable, the GDP aka "economic growth" would go down. Etcetera youtu.be/sEmGFNKWLlw?...

New music Friday drop: the latest single from the hugely under-appreciated Night Tapes "televison" #indiepop at its finest 💙 🎧 youtu.be/pqMQ0uQGSv0?...

Video of this is the most hilarious thing I saw all week. Multiple times. Though some think he said "shut your f**kin mouth". Either way. Priceless

Ever notice how maga world has completely forgotten about "draining the swamp" that was one of their big slogans back in 2016. What happened to that? 🤔

Per Independent UK "Tr**p confirmed as chairman of Kennedy Center as part of plan to end ‘woke’ performances" Yah, again, kinda like the nazis in Germany purged all "Degenerate Art" 😒 www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

Since 1946, the federal workforce shrank from 4.5% to 1.5% of all nonfarm workers. And what's the result? Overworked air traffic controllers, crumbling bank oversight, and veterans waiting months for care.

Hey get some great independent music and support a good cause to boot 💙🎵

Yet again one of those batshit executive orders. Probably another Elon directive. Why are so many oligarchic bosses like this? I suspect it has something to do with a shared plantation owner mentality

The wildfires in SoCal have hit the music community hard. We’ve teamed up with Shepard Fairey on a limited-edition T-shirt, available this month. 100% of Bandcamp proceeds from the tee go to MusiCares to support musicians in need. Once it’s gone, it’s gone. Get yours: bit.ly/432dHWz
