on the new episode of the PUNK THIS WEEK podcast, @ninacorcoran.bsky.social and I talk about what happened to us last week. tl;dr: we got screamed at (kinda) by one of our heroes + then had we all had a lovely conversation. plus new records by eddy current suppression ring, hillsboro, and more!

Kid at the airport terminal just yelled "why is the airplane so juicy and fat?"

photographers deserve to be compensated of course blah blah blah but agencies and lawyers who are out to absolutely destroy people and publications over a .jpeg on a blog post are scum plain and simple

Rollercoaster attendant at Six Flags complimented my gemini shirt for Cedar Point and I feel like I've been knighted

honestly we should maybe record every episode of PUNK THIS WEEK when we're sleep deprived @ninacorcoran.bsky.social

I urge you not to take Broken Social Scene's new album for granted It opens up with repeat listens in a beautiful way that only BSS can pull off. I find it hard to put my finger on it, nevermind to explain it, which made reviewing it for @pitchfork.com a fun challenge pitchfork.com/reviews/albu...

Drivers honking at pedestrians in the crosswalk when they have the right of way is straight to hell behavior

Things you didn't know you needed in your life: HEATHEN AX Thank you, @see-saw.fun and @ninacorcoran.bsky.social for bringing this into my life. johndwyer.bandcamp.com/album/heathe...

God it feels good to listen to an album that's just top to bottom fun. I love Media Puzzle!! RIYL: Beck, Devo, catchy basslines, trumpet, music that immediately boosts your mood pitchfork.com/reviews/albu...

KING TUFF is the latest guest on see/saw jukebox. It's a bonus podcast from me + @ninacorcoran.bsky.social. We ask great artists to help us curate a mythical jukebox with perfect punk records. Talkin Vermont, his discography, and his favorite punk album ever. Subscribe and listen up 🎧

sometimes you see some Max(shh) Rebo fan art that chills you to the bone, and on that day, you talk about six unreal new punk records from an outstanding week. NO PEELING, HEATHEN AXE, PUZZLEHEAD, MOCK EXECUTION, and MORE. cc @ninacorcoran.bsky.social

I submitted 8 (!) final picks to Evan before narrowing it down to 3: — experimental math-rock that goes toe to toe with Battles and YHWH Nailgun — supremely catchy melodic hardcore from Indonesia — loose post-punk with a singer whose vocal tic sounds like hiccuping

sometimes you walk into a podcast where you're like "let's talk about lemon meringue pie flavored M&Ms and Vampire Crawlers" and you leave feeling fully fucking freaked out by how swole and veiny JK Simmons has become (cc: @ninacorcoran.bsky.social)

Biking to 15 bookstores today to complete the ~independent bookstore day passport~ and, six stops in, the vibes are impeccable

If the technology existed, this album could instantly teleport you to a warm sunset cookout with a few ice cold beers (NA for me, please!) and a bunch of pals. Don't take my word for it, though: Nina's review is wonderful, as always!

never gonna stop telling you to listen to/read about frog

really really loved this writing. felt very personal to me/where I'm at with my own work right now. going to give this a spin now

I'm confident this National Photo Committee debut is one of my fav albums of the year because it quietly came out on nye and I've kept that unlisted youtube tab open for months, just playing it over and over My @pitchfork.com review now that it's formally out

How is the elevated boston crab a real wrestling move

on the new PUNK THIS WEEK podcast, @ninacorcoran.bsky.social + I celebrate wrestling weekend by declaring our finishing moves. what an unbelievably stacked episode on six phenomenal new records by Media Puzzle, Choncy, Prince Daddy & the Hyena, Tonya, the Arrivals, and Winston Hightower. listen up!!

Given this is Frog's third album in 14 months, I tried to sort through why constant creation leads to improvement, ego detachment, and hard but necessary pattern recognition

Thank you @ninacorcoran.bsky.social and @pitchfork.com! Frog for Sale 🐸 pitchfork.com/reviews/albu...

I love walking outside when the thunderstorm is juuuuuust on the periphery. All the drama, none of the soaked attire

honestly my best work might be the “gonzo struck by lightning to the tune of ‘heat’ by station model violence” fanvid that’s on my IG story right now, but this podcast @ninacorcoran.bsky.social + did about baseball and punk records is also great

Using social media for its original purpose (vagueposting) to say women just do it better

it's a new episode of PUNK THIS WEEK that we recorded on Easter Sunday, so @ninacorcoran.bsky.social + I discuss Dr. Pepper-flavored Peeps + the absolutely unhinged shapes that you'll find when you unwrap a Reese's easter egg. All this plus six fantastic new punk records. listen + subscribe!

Hell yeah @ninacorcoran.bsky.social wrote the liner notes for the forthcoming Jejune box set numerogroup.com/products/wai...

Jejune's entire discography is getting reissued as a Numero Group box set and I wrote the liner notes :') I cannot overstate how many hours were put into this essay to hopefully make it the definitive story of Jejune ft. interviews with Jimmy Eat World, Mineral, the Get Up Kids, and more

The feeling of filing 12,000 words 😌

Wrote about Robber Robber's new album and when your apartment goes up in flames for @pitchfork.com

I loved hanging out with Jeremy Bolm for see/saw jukebox. You want Touché stories? Fat Mike lore? A discussion of the Ramones’ acting chops? Terrifying plane tales? Deeply fun episode, amazing dude, shout out @ninacorcoran.bsky.social

I talked about the see/saw year 2 party (one of the most important nights of my almost four decades on the planet), @ninacorcoran.bsky.social decided that it's time for me to choose a baseball team, and we discussed six exceptional new punk records from the past week. new PUNK THIS WEEK podcast!

what people sound like when they say i asked claude

This might be a hot take but all MLB closers should come out to rock music, it just hits different (Announcer has to let the music breathe a little before jumping in though)

The nu-metal renaissance has hit the major league

Wednesday remain the best rock band in america

Love is learning the entire roster of your partner's favorite team before keeping up with the new hires on your own team

You know, many people today are saying "baseball". You're hearing a lot of people saying it.

Bad announcers saying bad things on air, yeah baseball is back

MARCH 27-28 in MINNEAPOLIS: see/saw turns 2 across 2 sick punk shows Friday come see Makin’ Out, Heather the Jerk, Brendan Wells, Orchid Club @ New World ⚙️ Saturday it’s the Sleaze reunion, Bermuda Squares’ final original lineup set, Kilynn Lunsford, Miracle Debt, BUIO Omega, TY, W-9 @ Eagles 34 🪩

in the new episode of the PUNK THIS WEEK podcast, @ninacorcoran.bsky.social and I discuss the joys and sorrows of POP TARTS + six very sick new punk records. I can't stop excitedly yelling "Trance Bill" in this one, so if you've never listened before, this is a pretty typical episode tbh [positive].

Post-punk doesn't really do it for me these days, which makes it extra special when an album does – like Landowner's latest

Not the Princess Bride theme, how are nominees expected to not cry off their makeup in that room

PSA: Fugazi released the Albini versions of In on the Kill Taker and it sounds excellent Bonus PSA: a bunch of other top-tier punk records came out this week and you can hear them here: see-saw.fun/punk-this-we...

on PUNK THIS WEEK, @ninacorcoran.bsky.social + I's podcast about new and upcoming underground punk bands that nobody's heard of and merit your attention, we'd like to introduce you to Fugazi and Steve Albini

I love this review. You come away knowing absolutely everything you need to know about the band and its music/sound, withOUT the critic tropes of "This band sounds like that band, with a little bit of the other band, influenced by that other band." It's about the music, and honors the music.
