this has a great great postpunk feel to it!

Chris, I hope you liked a song or two off the last Kvelertak release.

@Cecile: only one way to find out! stay tuned!

It really was a good year, and I didn't even buy much stuff. Just based on everything I heard around here.

how is the rest of the Pleasure Model album?
Avatar 12:28pm
Chris M.:

@Cecile: my answer to that question is the same for all of these albums: it's great
Avatar 12:30pm

The only shows I saw (besides drag shows) were the Guerilla Girls, the Decibel Tour, and Flight of the Conchords.

@Cecile: No, even accounting for a lost month, I should have seen more. Even without sitting out November, I wouldn't have been anywhere close to 100. I guess I got either lazy or officially old

when Diane Kamikaze gets back to a regular show, I think it would be amazing if she interviewed drag queen Hellvetika. She modeled her look off heavy metal album covers, and is a metalhead true!

speeding thru the ether, I flipped on wfmu, screech the sound of brakes.... as my speed reduced to a station so original that it reminds me of thirty years ago when I listened to the radio with a pen in hand

I think my fave new record of 2016 (new, to exclude the wonderful Dust to Digital reissues) was Aesop Rock's The Impossible Kid. I reserve the right to change my mind every minute or so

Even though I don't have an account on Facebook, I can still see the prize. Thanks, Chris M.

Or someone start a band called Cooper Black, if we're still on the font thing. I'd buy anything Cooper Black.

wow, she's good. I just know her from a Proactiv commercial.

My favorite live show was Circle. Maybe not the best, but this was such a fun set and remembering their set's finale (to Terminal, aptly) brings back the smile I -- and pretty much everyone around -- had at the time

Hellvetika would be a fantastic band name.

Coincidence? Looking up Krakota I found his bandcamp page, which refers to a "chrism" for booking
