I ended up getting promoted from rhythm guitarist to frontman of my high school band when they realized I was good at screaming because a dude and I were messing around on a cover of For Want Of towards the end of practice.

I’m not surprised by this. It was immediately obvious that KBM wasn’t gonna be the same without the massive amount of support and sponsorship partners Toyota poured into that team. I just knew that Kyle Busch couldn’t have been happy going from battling for championships to employing mid-level pay drivers like Chase Purdy or not even mid-level in Jack Wood, the economics of running that team just totally changed overnight even though they were still building quality equipment.

I’ll be excited to see what Spire is looking like next year with a 3 car team with serious sponsorship backing, all the tools to be the top performing Chevy team in the Truck series, maybe continuing to dabble at the Xfinity level now that they own a chassis manufacturing company. After years coasting in the back, they are really shooting their shot at multiseries relevancy

Whenever I’m feeling particularly anxious or depressed, this is one of the first songs I go to.

Tbh, it makes the announcement a while back that they would no longer be employing pay drivers a lot less impressive if they just eliminate a car rather than take one on. If those were the two choices, I would have just hired David Malukas, he’s a much better driver than Devlin or the other young drivers with budget.

One of my favorite opening lines in any song I’ve ever listened to, hooks you immediately.

The other day while talking to a friend I compared somebody else’s music to Buffalo Tom, and then said “I fully recognize I’m probably the only person who cares about Buffalo Tom”, so thank you for proving me wrong.

The first Cramps song I ever heard early in my teens, I was instantly hooked.

My stepfather, who I adored, was an instant huge fan of Death to Smoochy after it came out on home video and would often sing the line “Stepdad’s Not Mean He’s Just Adjusting”

Omg, how did I not know as the hardest of hardcore Bright Eyes fans that this exists? Great cover(s).

This song is great and this album is one I feel like far too many people overlook. As a huge Nebraska fan, I’m down for any time The Boss wants to strip down and get all acoustic on our asses, and while it isn’t as great as Nebraska it is still easily my favorite 90s Springsteen album and high on my list of favorite E Street Band-less albums.

I’m of real mixed emotions here. I totally understand why latino/a folks want this film to succeed, there has never really been a film to this scale to feature as predominantly a latin-american cast as this one, and that’s certainly a big moment. I have a latino friend who is going purely for how big a moment it is for representation of his culture and I get it.

However, so much of the complaints about how iffy the film’s likely performance I’ve seen really border damn close to just complaining about the strike “ruining” things for people (like we didn’t all know this film had ‘potential bust’ written all over it for a long time now) and studios’ plans. And frankly, while I certainly hope for more latin-american representation all across film, I also think that trying to save Warner Bros Discovery from their own disasterous decision is counterproductive to wishes of future good quality and original programming

Not a month goes by that I don’t get the sudden urge to revisit this song, it is really an all time favorite.

Straight up one of my favorite songs of all time.

Amazing how fully formed as filmmakers Joel and Ethan were from day one.

It is such a wonderful moment in a frantic album, just take a step back, chill out, and inspire people with a tribute to the power of music. Love it.

It might be just because the most famous members of Jane’s Addiction are famously super hateable dudes. They generally aren’t a cool band to like because of both that and the close association with RHCP (whom I personally also do not like), but it is unfair because at their peak JA were a really solid alt rock band that didn’t really sound like anybody else out there.

Most bands are lucky to have one great songwriter, Husker Du had two who ensured there was never a dull moment on any of their albums. It says a lot that of the “noise pop/melodic hardcore” era, Candy Apple Grey is probably their weakest album and it still produced all-time great songs like this.

I’m 32, and Let it Be has been a top 3 album for me since I was like 15 years old. You don’t have to be older to know that The 'Mats were amazing.

Yeah, nothing about his “clarifications” really do anything other than making him look even more a dim light struggling to form an opinion.

This has long been a “walking around the neighborhood with my headphones in” staple, got the perfect atmosphere for night walk with a chill in the air.
