New One New Album Every Week seed is up for 2026. I'll gradually fill this in over the course of the year, and the post has a linked spotify playlist. shapejam.com/listen/2026/...

Top 3 results for 2025: -Organising the first Cartoon County Open Market day (hoping for three in 26) -Editing the great anthology DUI 4 -Helping 5 different comic artists with production issues For 26 My own shizzle: -Finish drawing Herakles -Start painting The Mabinogion -Firm up a How To project

I want to tell you about a cool project that we participated in with the Awesome Comics Podcast community. Drawn Under the Influence is a charity comic, edited by @simonrussell.bsky.social that allows artists to pay tribute to their influences. In the case of Benn & myself, that meant the pulp…

Finished the Comic Advent Calendar for 2025. So much good stuff to read, and just sampled a bit of it. I'll try and put next years reading online, and would be awesome to see what other people managed to chew through :). shapejam.com/read/2025/12...

Posted this as, not just a reply... Drawn Under the Influence 4, is a charity comics anthology made by folks in the Awesome Comics Podcast creator community. It reads like a paean to the old UK Zines, and is available via Print-on-Demand. They'd love our support! www.amazon.co.uk/DUI-4-Drawn-...

Hey, it looks like NMS won something! That is pretty cool :).

It's December, and almost the End Of The Year again... Bleep had some Albums of The Year to check out, added a few bits to the ONAEW Music List, and it's closed for the year. Lots of lovely new and old #music this year :) shapejam.com/listen/2025/...

It's Christmas time, what better time of the year than to read a load of #comics for #advent. Various folks have been doing this for a bit, and I've knocked up a tree online this year. 25 Comics 25 Days, and the Rebellion Comics 2000ad 2026 Annual on the 25th!

ONAEW - Hiatus Kaiyote - Tawk Tomahawk You should try and stick your head between two good speakers to experience the layered complexity encompassed by the tracks in this Aussie-soul beaut. They've done well t'create distinct through lines for the band. hiatuskaiyote.bandcamp.com/album/tawk-t...

"Please God, save me from such typical places and normal people. They are a mask to hide the Truth of existence." Great piece from Uncle Pat. Every person is a universe, and has a story. iconoblast.substack.com/p/inspirations-10-robert-mckee

ONAEW - Qebo - Cellular Spaces Algorhythmically complex, a concept album made entirely with the Polyend Tracker, an attempt at blurring digital and organic with selected tonal textures. Very listenable, filmic in places and surprisingly groovy. qebo.bandcamp.com/album/cellul...

ONAEW - Rolando Simmons - World Building Found via "Free Analogue" which has a lovely head bopper of a track, all discordant key changing melody lines backed by a solid groove. The entire release is solid electronica and worth perusal. rolandosimmons.bandcamp.com/album/world-...

If you want to live longer, exercise. Increased muscle mass mediates insulin response and increases balance, reducing falling accidents in old age.

ONAEW - Meshuggah - Immutable Produced during the COVID years by posting material, pieces written on dev boxes and shared. They created one of their most rhythmic and tonally complex albums through remote wroking. Opening with Broken Cog, a superlative release. www.roughtrade.com/en-gb/produc...

ONAEW - Alluvial - Death Is But A Door Stumbled on this tooling through Bandcamp. Alluvial's djent-ish/deathcore-ish output immediately lit my neurons up. Fogbelt is something special, growls, wails, guitar screechs, massive syncopation and pinch harmonics! alluvial.bandcamp.com/album/death-...

ONAEW - Mark Pritchard & Thom Yorke - Tall Tales Sounding like EBM created on a circuit bent casiotone, darkly competent music from Pritchard coupled with phased and manipulated voices from Yorke on tracks like Gangsters this album is a treat. markpritchard.bandcamp.com/album/tall-t...

It would be utterly ridiculous, but not surprise me if wearing certain types of belts and sitting down were strongly correlated with prostate and bladder cancers in men, if not actually causative.

ONAEW - Car Bomb - Mordial Mathcore, Djent or both. Start as you mean to go on, with a shimmer straight into Fade out, with its cavorting time signatures, woop up-distorted guitars, and some of the best chunky guitars and drums I've heard in a while. Ace. carbomb.bandcamp.com/album/mordial

ONAEW - Moses Yoofee Trio - MYT Stuttgart basd Jazz folks, released this thing with cadent buzzing whines over tight electric keys, freeform drumming and bass. The sparse vocals end up being the chef's kiss on an already exceptional copse of music. mosesyoofeetrio.bandcamp.com/album/myt

ONAEW - Blackalicious - A2G Banger EP from Chief Xcel, Cut Chemist, words from GOAT, Gift of Gab. Glommed onto this post 4th Dimensional Rocketships. Rhymes & perfect samples, "I be the analog arsonist, aimin' at your arteries All-seeing abstract, analyze everything..." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A2G

ONAEW - ir_ - Threnode EP. Another lovely one from Analogical Force. It reminds me of Wisp, and shares the same musical DNA, pushing square/triangle wave melody lead drum breaks. This is a first EP from ir_ and an amazing effort as his debut. analogicalforce.bandcamp.com/album/is1-th...

Four new stickers/magnets just gone up in my little shop. www.infinitebacon.com/stickers Thank you!

Basildon gave us Vince Clarke, Alison Moyet & Depeche Mode. It’ll be 50 years since the bands formed soon, feels like we need to celebrate, like a museum, or permie music walk for a synthpop legacy. youtu.be/1lVljmH0yUw?... #Basildon #Synthpop #DepecheMode #Erasure #AlisonMoyet #VinceClarke

ONAEW - Telefon Tel Aviv - Farenheit Fair Enough The opening chord arpeggiation was lush enough to get me to listen to the entire thing. It turned into a superlative low-fi album, with a more modern chaotically programmed mid-90s AI electronica spine. telefon-tel-aviv.bandcamp.com/album/fahren...

ONAEW - Mansun - Six Mid 90s expansive Brit-rock, which QOTSA'd before QOTSA were fully a thing. Little Kix & Grey Lantern were both spectacular, leaving this middle hard to find. Lovely release, a sonic adventure, the talisman they built post-Lantern. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Six_(Ma...

🎶She's got Alan Davis eyes🎶

ONAEW - Periphery - Juggernaut: Omega The follow on from Alpha, finding love, escaping, finally purging a cult. Taken together with Alpha, this is quite a metal edifice. Defo one of my favourite recent bands, producing two great albums. store.periphery.net/products/jug...

ONAEW - Periphery - Juggernaut: Alpha Missed this when it came out... reminds me of the Queensryche "Operation Mindcrime" concept album, larger in breadth. First of a double release, alpha is about a guy in a cult, escape & institutionalisation made him a weapon. www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

My masterpiece.

Well lookee here... The 1985 cast of Transformers, lines by me, colours by the peerless @dcjosh.bsky.social! Two new prints available at @tfnationltd tomorrow!

These are probably the greatest things ive ever drawn #pixelart #art #pixel #space

Going to delete this but was thinking what to draw and well…

ONAEW - James Shinra - Meteorites Another beaut from Analogical Force and James Shinra. Reminds me of the best of Bochum Welt, fused with the more modern Footwork and D&B influenced output. Wtaf is "Finch", should be a modern Bond theme, what a tune. analogicalforce.bandcamp.com/album/af061l...

And for round 2 of tonight’s Gosh BF Drink and Draw our inspiration comes from Leeds Comics Collective’s #SmallPressDay poster by Hannah McCann and Molly Pukes. You have half an hour on the theme of ‘Goblins’. #GoshBFDD

Wow. 2025 is halfway through already. Six months of new music each week over at shapejam.com/listen/2025/.... Not enough time to really ingest as much new good stuff, as there is at the moment, but here is my attempt at it again.

ONAEW - Sleep Token - Even In Arcadia Opens with "Look To Windward" & starts as it means to go on, with synth and orchestral driven metal, and Vessel's voice roaring through it. Metal for the 2020s, influenced by Screamo and older forms, creating good shit. storeuk.sleep-token.com/product-cate...

ONAEW - Machinedrum - A View Of U Managed to swerve this one when it came out for some unknown reason... from the first bass flanging track to the last, this exercise in Footwork Bass rinses, and makes me dream of sweaty clubs and slow spins. machinedrum.bandcamp.com/album/a-view...

ONAEW - EOD - Swurlk Another from EOD, and another on Iceland;s bbbbbb. The eopnymous track has a hi hat ride which wants to make you move, and a cute synth melody which opens into something altogether more squeltchy and complex. Lovely release. bbbbbbrecors.bandcamp.com/album/swurlk

ONAEW - EOD - Named Cthulu-influenced breakcore from someone that spends winters in the inky darkness of a frigid Norwegian night. Love his stuff, some of the best from one of the artists who experienced the tail end of Rephlex's output. bbbbbbrecors.bandcamp.com/album/named

Just caught @joshruben.bsky.social’s Heart Eyes. What a good slab of cinema, strong, likeable characters, great idea, lovely performances, and a nice horror/comedy mix. Two-thumbs-up. youtu.be/1cRzZcMlJh8?...

Must be close to #Frightfest Film Announcement again! I was reminded as I find a photo to print to "save" my printer from clogging up when I actually want to use it. I found these old ones of Simon Pegg getting and delivering a prize, and Michele Placido, awesome actor, unfortunate film.

🩸10 WEEKS TO GO!🩸 FrightFest is creeping closer and yes we are 10 weeks to the day until opening night slashes onto the screen! 🎬 Cannot wait to see you all soon, it's going to be bloody brilliant! 💀🍿 #FF25

ONAEW - Various Artists - Sixty Awesome electronic comp from Analogical Force for their 60th album release. Stuff from Mr 76ix, Microlith, Shinra, Gherat and lovely breaks stuff from Oh Mr James. AF continue to host some of the best modern electronics. analogicalforce.bandcamp.com/album/af060l...

ONAEW - Madvillain - Madvillainy "Living off borrowed time, the clock tick faster That'd be the hour they knock the slick blaster" Picked up MF DOOM im Köln aus einer Laune heraus, lyrics golden, mask metallic, and rocking like a raygun across the atlantic. www.stonesthrow.com/store/madvil...
