Hearing "99 Red Balloons" playing at the grocery store is not exactly comforting at this moment 🎈🙀

Love or hate Angine de Poitrine for their costumes and difficult music – I can't wait to see the generation of bands they inspire to get weird

Every time I see a band with great stage presence I think of a musician I knew decades ago who insisted that bands should only wear street clothes, have no frills or showiness and just let the music speak for itself. Not surprisingly his solo gigs failed to capture most people's attention.

Wicked spooky fun from the amazing @misterreusch.bsky.social 🤘

Very sad about the loss of Cody James Lollar aka GosT. Great guy and artist. He's one of the people who inspired me to put on a cat mask, dust off the distortion pedals and break my retirement from music. 😿🤘

Just released my new album A Day Without a Piano Made during one of the hardest periods of my life, when everything felt too complicated and I wished it to be simpler Music was my way through the dark The absence of piano means more than it might seem… binaural-space.bandcamp.com/album/a-day-...

I'm a huge time travel movie fan and was delighted with the fun farce "Time Travel is Dangerous". Very inventive for its limited budget. It would make a good pairing with a film like "FAQs About Time Travel" or "Dave Made a Maze".

Thanks @hyperbubble.bsky.social for sharing this 1978 Rachel Sweet classic "Girl with a Synthesizer" 😸🎹💜 "She's a cat in a rage..." youtu.be/eYZow-kxb-o

Thank you @synthwriter80s.bsky.social and @absynth.space for the thoughtful review of A Furwell to Kings! 😸💜🙌

Very good Sun Ra documentary currently on PBS

Someone asked if I'd consider making a limited run of lathe-cut records for my album Kitty Hate Machine which never saw a vinyl release. Not sure who would go for this, it's only 26 minutes long and 5 years old already.

Do you have a fur-vorite record?

There are 2 of 20 "A Furwell to Kings" lathe cut records left! Message me if you'd like to adopt one. $27 USD plus postage ($7 US, $24 rest of world). They're a little crackly and more for Cat Temper completists than purrsnickety audiophiles.

6 copies of the lathe cut vinyl left. Message me if you'd like to add an ultra rare record to your collection. 😸

8 copies left!

I had 20 lathe cut records made of the new album "A Furwell to Kings" and am selling them direct before they appear on Bandcamp next week. $27 USD plus postage ($7 US, $24 rest of world). One per customer. They're a little crackly and more for Cat Temper completists than purrsnickety audiophiles.

My cover painting for the new @cattemper.bsky.social album 😻

The album and track names for "A Furwell to Kings" are puns on Rush song & album titles. The music is heavily inspired by the band's synth-heavy era of the 1980s. (Cover art by the incredible Jennifer Maher Coleman @toyportraits.bsky.social)

Oops, auto-incorrect got me in my last post and changed the name of the artist for my new album cover. Should be Jennifer Maher Coleman (not Cohen!). Jennifer is a terrific painter, DJ, and does synths & vocals for the great dreampop duo @architrave.band !

Relaxing in the bath listening to hardcore punk, as one does

Noni Solfeggio's loose & seemingly off-the-cuff mini songs on Instagram are delightful nuggets of whimsy. Her unpolished style & stoic demeanor make for surprisingly infectious tunes. I admire her creativity & devotion to celebrating small wonders. cantcolonizethevibe.com/blogs/news/n...

A few years ago I wrote about a couple of early musical influences that also gave me nightmares. www.theparadisearcade.com/cats-corner/...

Had a dream I was in a punk band called Half Pickle and we wore glowing green jumpsuits. If you need me I'll be writing songs for a new project...

Random Cat Temper track: "The Swarm of Ulthar" featuring The Vessel of VVOV 😼🔥🤘 cattemper.bandcamp.com/track/the-sw...

Enjoyed the new DEVO documentary and its video collage format. As a kid I would borrow the first 4 DEVO cassettes from the library in a constant rotation. Sometimes a B-52s tape would sneak in there.

New EP from Leifendeath! Pounding drums and trancey synths drag you through a strange dream. leifendeth.bandcamp.com/album/strang...

I never considered myself a "real" musician due to critical feedback from every angle my entire life. Because I use janky gear in unconventional ways. Or I don't know music theory. Or I let my sense of humor show. But I pride myself in following through with ideas regardless of criticism.

I need to do some MAJOR DOWNSIZING and having a MAJOR SALE for a limited time! All Cat Temper records are $12 USD!!! Help a cat out! 😸🤘 cattemper.bandcamp.com/merch

How long before the Grammys has an award for Prompt of the Year?

I accidentally stepped on my cat's paw. She's paying me back by standing on my foot. I'm pretending to suffer for her satisfaction.
