Bringing back something old to make it new again.

The Hereford family recipe - "Burnt Tomatoes," for which you shallow fry dry-dredged tomato slices, stack them, and proceed to cook the ever-loving shit out of them until they caramelize into a dark, rich goop. Delicious.

New lineup for the 10/16 show. Unfortunately, Myst had to drop from this show and GLDS due to reasons beyond his control. Still quite the lineup - come hang out.

NEW CATHEDRAL OUT IN FULL! I COULD CRY! cathedralofficial.bandcamp.com/album/societ...

Finally was able to make it to Tuk Tuk Thai Isan and it was definitely the best Thai food in Chicago that I've eaten thus far. Check out this partially eaten plate of glistening, crispy pork belly and Chinese broccoli. We also had meatballs and something the restaurant refers to as "Pink Milk." Nice

Hey - I have two tickets to the SILKWORM show at Sleeping Village on Wednesday that I'm looking to sell. Anyone interested?

stuff from the last month

A fun challenge that was not actually as difficult an exercise as I'd expected it to be.

Did someone way werewolf painting? Can't wait to get this framed.

Happy birthday to my favorite person. However, we are both ill.

Happy to see some friends in this honestly perplexing list, but I'll be deep in the cold, cold ground before I call Agalloch black metal. loudwire.com/best-progres...

Me when someone speaks ill of Dimmu Borgir.

We went to the Ren Faire.

Next recruiter to give me "job seeking advice" or "a better way to format my resume" is getting jettisoned into the Sun.

Can't wait for everyone to be old and feel silly about the worthless act of clout chasing as adults. Headstone engravers are going to have this one on special when you die.

Wait a sec

Looks like we aren't recording our album this summer. Sorry, y'all :(. thelostyearband.bandcamp.com/album/act-li...

The Mr. Beast-ification of music journalism through the hard pivot to video "content" with goofy reaction faces is a real shame.

Got to see the Patrick Shiroishi/Chepang/Sumac show at the International Museum of Surgical Science with @hierophant.bsky.social last night. Super killer. Here's a bad photo of Patrick Shiroishi entrancing the crowd.

Hey friends, we're going to do some quick maintenance to Ampwall and need to go offline for 20-30 minutes. Sorry for any trouble! This is our first ever planned outage, not something we plan on doing again if we can avoid it. Thanks for understanding!
