Meanwhile, in Maryland...

I miss reading John Arguello.

That's a nice improvement over a bunch of single guitar stands getting tripped over.

🎶 Trials and tribulations seem to flow from my pen, that's the times that the rhymes are so sufferin'🎶

Ok, quick story... I was making a quick salad and went to chop some carrots. Ugh, I thought, these are old...

What a freaking great song. music.amazon.com/albums/B07VW...

"The men in suits in the capitol, they got a lot to say about the borders of my body, what I'm doin' anyway. They're just a different kind of violence, in a suit and in a tie; a different kind of "daddy" who believes I shouldn't try to own the skin I'm..." 🇺🇸🎶 youtu.be/tJrnSDW3SMc?...

I've been saying this for years! Every guitar is unique, just go play a bunch of them and find the one you like.

we’re unbelievably thrilled to announce the release of Landowner’s new album, “Assumption,” due out February 27th!! one of the greatest punk bands alive, their abrasively clean attack has never sounded better. landowner.bandcamp.com/album/assump...

Current is the Patapsco, which barely qualifies anymore, if it does... ...But my OG was the Red. Special shout-out to the Ouachita and much love to the Pearl 🤘

Jesus this is good.

Pizza night is for cannibal Pac-Man battles.

Goddamn if this isn't where it's at. What a legacy🤘

B'more represent!!!

Needed a break from the madness, so I think this might be happening😎

Took a hike in Patapsco State Park today and randomly took photos of tree graffiti. This any of y'all?😂

This will be my first read of 2026, I've been trying to get my hands on this one for 2 years (always checked out at the library, always a good sign). I'm psyched, betting I get at least two new songs out of it🤘

I feel like "don't fough with Shough" should be a thing. #whodat

I make weird, unsettled indie rock about finding your place in a world like *waves hands around* this. Probably a pretty good soundtrack for life nowadays... smokincola.bandcamp.com/music

Ok, who went down the rabbit hole??!

Which song should I cover?

The first thing I have to see upon walking is Trump's stupidity, then the second thing I see is one of Rick Beato's nearly as stupid (if not globally destructive) opinions. I'm going back to bed.

Hi, I'm last bite of hamburger.

Say something positive about your favorite sports team.

The 7yo and I have a new hobby 🤘😎 #lego

What's my first new music discovery of '26? Why this right here. Killer vibe and flow, love me some organic sounding hip-hop (among others) 🤘 Dereos Roads - No One Left to Follow [feat. Army of One] - Free download at GetMusic www.getmusic.fm/r/dereos-roa...

I've been mostly taking off social media for the holidays, but creeping back in to say, dang, this Silversun Pickups Unplugged is straight up 🔥.

Being back the newspaper pricing model. I don't want to subscribe to your website for a year to read an article here and there, once in a while. So let me pay 25-50 cents for what was published today. Maybe I'll pay $1.50 for a weekend subscription.

Holy moly, @rarericks.bsky.social liked this post, I guess this year wasn't a complete disaster! 😂

I will continue this recap soon! In the meantime, celebrate those you love!

You have no idea how much I'm here for this. I mean, suddenly John jumps up out of nowhere, some jewel encrusted mic flies into his hand, he basically re-creates the end of 8 Mile, but about Avengers, and then ...

The Dunning-Kruger Effect and the Streisand Effect, when merged, become the Bari Weiss Effect

Ok, let's keep it going! The 4th song I released this year (and 3rd on the EP) is an oldie, at least where I come from😎 But seriously, I wrote Intentions in, like, 2000-2001. The 1st line is kinda neat because it is literally about my struggles then with ... smokincola.bandcamp.com/track/intent...

This empty jar of pickles fills me with Lovecraftian terror, for some reason.

2025 recap cont: I decided to have 4 songs mixed by Adam and release an EP - and Arbutus was born! The second song was Animals, which I like to joke is wild, haha. Musically, this one was like jamming with myself, just compiling ideas until I liked what I had. smokincola.bandcamp.com/track/animals

Can't believe I never used this as a Christmas card.

Leaving Winona Ryder’s house because all she wants to do is bone and I have better things to do

Angel of Damnation probably released the best traditional doom album of the year avenger.bandcamp.com/album/ethere...

While I was in the process of releasing "Brand New Day, something really cool was happening behind the scenes! Adam at @deluxemixing.com announced he was going to pick 3 songs to mix for free - and he chose my entry as one of them! I probably didn't make a big enough deal about it this year...

OH GOOD GOD, WHY IS THERE A NICKELBACK SONG STUCK IN MY HEAD??!!!!!
