THE DIODES
Released
1979 Canada pressing

An incredible, KILLER album.
Super under-appreciated, high-energy and catchy as fuck.

From Toronto, Canada, Diodes put out a handful of great albums during their initial run of 1977-1982.

Here, things get off to a great start with the classic “Red Rubber Ball”, a KILLER take on the classic The Cyrkle song. And it doesn’t let up a single bit from there.

The other classic gem here is Side B’s opener, “Tired Of Waking Up Tired”.

Absolute Canadian punk legends, and just a great fucking album.

SUFJAN STEVENS
Illinois
2006 U.S. 2xLP reissue

Been a long time since I’ve sat down and listened to Illinois from start to finish.

I posted the B-sides and rarities companion album The Avalanche, at it drove me to come back to this again.

This album was one of a handful that was a great source of comfort to my wife and I in 2007. We had moved into our very first apartment together in Woonsocket, R.I., and toiled in that joint for a year before hitting the road and moving to Van Isle.

Over that year, we listened to Illinois, Boxer by The National, Pete Yorn’s Nightcrawler, and a few other things on a loop.
We made that place our own, and we still remember that time (and the music we listened to) fondly.

We were so young, and had no idea what was in store for us down the road.

Sufjan will always remind us of that time. We love this album dearly.

GIRLS AGAINST BOYS
Cruise Yourself
2026 U.S. Ltd. Edition reissue
Suspended Gold vinyl

Oh man!
I had no idea that they reissued this!
So happy I was able to snag one before they vanished, as there’s only 1000 of them, apparently.

GVSB are one of the great unheralded bands of the #90s . I was able to see them play live TWICE back in the day, and they were incredible. There wasn’t a single album of theirs that I didn’t love.

This was their third album, and their second for Touch And Go, a label I absolutely consumed and lived on back then. This has the magnificent “Kill The Sex Player” on it, a song that also appeared on the soundtrack to Kevin Smith’s CLERKS.

For me, this band’s secret weapon was always their awesome rhythm section.
GREAT drummer (Alexis Fleisig) & bass player (Johnny Temple).

"A brilliant ride, the kind of storytelling and world-building richness I crave in games... Neofeud explores the depths that make up our capitalist reality." --Steam Reviewer https://store.steampowered.com/app/673850/Neofeud/ #cyberpunk #SteamSummerSale #indie #steamdeals #steamdeck #visualnovel #indiegame

#Listening to @kidlightbulbs' 2025 album INFINITE NORMAL;

https://music.kidlightbulbs.com/infinite-normal/

An intriguing singer-songwriter album reminiscent of Sparklehorse, Badly Drawn Boy or SJD. Melancholic and frustrated melodies, and lush instrumentation, especially for a solo act (plus a few friends).

Great to see professional sounding artists making use of non-corporate music hosting tools like FairCamp (see link) and @bandwagon (click on the Kid's @handle to see his BW profile).

THE FEELIES
The Good Earth
2009 U.S. Remastered reissue

Been a while since I’ve spun this one, as I’m usually leaning towards Crazy Rhythms if I’m in the mood for The Feelies.

This is a different album from Crazy Rhythms; it’s much more pastoral and earthy sounding, and far less spastic than its predecessor. However, it is no less excellent.

They waited SIX YEARS after that first landmark album to put this out. The band were all working regular day jobs, and getting together as time permitted to craft these songs.

The time served them well.
It’s an album that has aged wonderfully like fine wine, with production help from R.E.M.’s Peter Buck, who was a huge fan.

A different record in the BEST possible way.
