Steve Almaas, bassist for influential 1970s’ Minnesota punk rock band Suicide Commandos, has died at 69. After their breakup, Almaas later formed the 1980s’ melodic country rock group Beat Rodeo. Suicide Commandos live in 1979. #RIPSteveAlmaas #PunkRock m.youtube.com/watch?v=yrWw...

When the Current played nothing but Prince for days after he died, I remember saying we need a Prince channel. Then they made it. Can’t believe 10 years after his death, they’re still going. Listening all day…

“Great art has a long tail, mostly invisible to its creators. I know I wouldn’t feel so fondly toward humans, for example, if I hadn’t read Forster at an impressionable age. Of course, many other things could have created this affection. Art is in no sense the only way. But it is a way.”

“From counting out odd time signatures, to a surprising emphasis on dynamics, to embracing vulnerability in punk, to the coming of age themes that made the record so relatable, to the liquid courage that was required for the cathartic ‘Good Morning Captain’”

Marjane Satrapi 🖤

HBD Raphael Ravenscroft, the man behind the sax break on Gerry Rafferty's "Baker Street". This is exactly what I assumed he'd look like too.

For the lovers. If you need an excuse for a good crying. High Tide Enrique Molina When a man and a woman who once loved one another, separate, the burning song of pride rises like a golden cobra the illusory wonder of their nights of love

It's June--the year's 1/2 over--so here's some folks who've put out good 2026 music thus far... Joshua Abrams Morton Feldman Bill Frisell Julian Lage Joe Lovano Paramount Quartet Hedvig Mollestad / Weejuns Neurosis Jeff Parker ETA IVtet The Tomeka Reid Quartet Sunn O)))

To our dismay, the artist and author Marjane Satrapi has passed away. As she wrote, ordinary Americans and Iranians have more in common with each other than we do with either of our governments, which have far too much in common with each other. We honor her memory and oppose the war.

Marjane Satrapi (1969-2026), the French-Iranian author and illustrator behind the popular graphic novel series and film “Persopolis,” RIP 🙏

“Coleman’s Candyland offers an unrelentingly thorough examination of place and self, the fullest possible picture anyone could imagine of not only where and why one is in this world,but what it means to be there, to be present and accounted for.” —Carlo McCormick Joe Coleman Voyage to Candyland

Every four years, like the swallows returning to San Juan Capistrano, people across Los Angeles County are opening their ballots or stepping into a voting booth and realizing that they can’t vote for mayor because they don’t actually live in the city of L.A.
