  1. “This is for any of you who knows anyone whose lost anyone.”

    May 15, 1990 ~ Concrete Blonde release Bloodletting. Concrete Blonde filled the gap between the alt-rock 80's and Nirvana with some of the darkest and most imaginative music and lyrics from the pen of Johnette Napolitano. R.E.M.'s Peter Buck does some work on the album which includes "Joey," their biggest hit. #concreteblonde #bloodletting #altrock #alternativerock #rockmusic #90smusic #musicsky #musiciansky

  3. It is a weird habit of mine that whenever I have to ride the bus I often decide to throw on a dream pop album or EP, I guess to keep myself calm. Today my choice while running important errands was listening to the entirety of I Can Hear the Heart Beating As One by Yo La Tengo.

  4. Woke up earlier than I needed to this morning because I wanted to ensure I had time to just sit around and do nothing but browse social media and blast Diary by Sunny Day Real Estate before I get ready to take the bus to get a monthly injection this morning.

    Ah, figo: they are back.
    Gli alfieri primi del post-rock italiano tornano a farsi sentire!

    La "La Stanza di Swedenborg" (youtube.com/watch?v=fPd2knSl9AQ) l’ho consumata. No, davvero: ci ho praticamente vissuto dentro, aspettando la mia seduta spiritica per uscirne ...e forse non sono mai uscito del tutto.

  7. 🇨🇭 The Young Gods "Play Kurt Weill" – 1991

    A striking reinterpretation of Kurt Weill’s material through the band’s dark, sample-driven aesthetic. Rather than treating the songs as reverent adaptations, The Young Gods reshape them with industrial textures, mechanical rhythms, and dramatic sonic tension...

  8. Released today 35 years ago:

    🇬🇧 Siouxsie and the Banshees "Kiss Them for Me" – 1991

    Built on layered percussion, shimmering textures, and exotic melodic flourishes, the song marked one of the band’s most accessible and commercially successful moments. Siouxsie Sioux delivers a sensual and controlled vocal performance, floating above the dense, atmospheric arrangement...

  9. Released today 41 years ago:

    🇬🇧 New Order "Low-Life" – 1985

    A refined and confident fusion of electronic dance music and guitar-driven melancholy. The album balances sequenced synth arrangements and drum machines with melodic bass lines and understated guitar textures, creating a sound that feels both emotional and rhythmically precise...

  11. Look, I understand why a lot of people can't get into Half Japanese but they are really missing out. Their classic era in the late 80s and early 90s produced a lot of interesting and sometimes downright catchy music once you learn to love and accept Jad as a frontman.

  12. Old review.

    Various - EMPIRE RECORDS: The Soundtrack

    emcritic.blogspot.com/2016/05/

    A Very Important release to a number of my #90s peers. Not me, mind you, but enough out there that the movie remains highly nostalgic for some.

  13. Released yesterday 33 years ago:

    🇬🇧 Morrissey "Beethoven Was Deaf" – 1993

    Recorded live during the Your Arsenal tour, the album captures Morrissey in a forceful and highly confident phase, backed by a band that gives the songs a harder, more driving edge than their studio counterparts and a strong crowd atmosphere throughout...

    I have joined a webring for the site, which is what happens when your web gets a ring around it. They were kind of fun, years ago, when people wanted to find sites in a grab bag sort of way. If you don't find my music to your liking, disliking, or whatever turns you on-liking, you may now peruse a handy collection of Faircamp sites in a most linear fashion.

  15. "Paranoid Android" is a song by English #alternativeRock band #Radiohead, released as the lead single from their third studio album, #OKComputer (1997), on 26 May 1997. The lyrics were written by singer #ThomYorke following an unpleasant experience in a Los Angeles #bar. The song is over six minutes long and contains four #sections. The name is taken from #MarvinTheParanoidAndroid from the science fiction series #TheHitchhikersGuideToTheGalaxy.

    The Jayhawks release their 6th album on May 9, 2000. It's quite the departure for die-hard 'hawks fans ... including this one. But after a few listens -- and Baby, Baby, Baby on 11 under the cans ... all was well. There's a little more pop than alt-country/altr-rock but the Jayhawks sound is there. Just rub those eyes and step high and light ... #thejayhawks #smile #altrock #pop #poprock #alternativerock #altcountry #alternativecountry #janglepop #powerpop

  17. Oh, and the video he found of us (also two songs) was on YouTube. I downloaded it and put it on PeerTube. Because fuck YouTube.

    I don’t know the guy who recorded/posted it. But it’s my band, so I figured it would be okay to steal it.

  18. So…a couple of days ago, a friend told me he found a video of my old band Shovel online. Circa 1996.

    It reminded me that we recorded a two-song demo that I have on a cassette. Just a blank tape from the studio master.

    So I remastered it and published it on Bandcamp (for free). Check it out if you want. (I know. It’s not metal. Hush.)

  19. Released today 47 years ago:

    🇬🇧 The Cure "Three Imaginary Boys" – 1979

    A lean and restless debut balancing post-punk minimalism with flashes of offbeat pop sensibility. Even at this early stage, Robert Smith’s songwriting shows a fascination with mood and repetition, though the darker atmosphere of later releases is only beginning to emerge...
