I play drums and write music for @thrice. I share music I dig on IG @rileybreck. I ramble about baseball and make up dumb names @productiveouts.
Went to see Universal Soldier in the theater with a group of friends in ’92. We knew it was gonna suck on its own merits, but when the title screen popped up it looked like this. Kinda set the tone for the rest of the experience, which was so bad it was almost good?
Pochettino looks like an unkempt Jim Adkins from Jimmy Eat World.
The Orange County Register wants you to know that it's National Burrito Day and ... I guess that's the best photo of a burrito they could find?
I know it’s April Fools and all, but this is legit and it f-ing slays. tidal.com/album/504621...
Why is it so hard for streaming services to keep artist’s profiles from being populated by slop? Elder (a sick prog band from Boston/Berlin) announced a new record today, and what pops up in my Tidal notifications? Some slop that is absolutely not Elder. Happens often and it sucks.
Baseball season is officially here! I wrote the Angels essay for this year’s @baseballprospectus.com annual, and tried my damndest to dissect the mess that is Angels Baseball.
Our @audiotree.bsky.social session is now available on YouTube and all streaming services. We ripped through four new songs from Horizons/West, and Dustin and Teppei sat down for a really solid interview about our creative process and the evolution of the band. I think it all turned out great.
We were invited to the Kerrang Awards in like 2003 and I used the urinal next to a dead elf. Literally scared the piss outta me.
Imagine losing touch with music 20 years ago and deciding to blame it on everyone else. I'm sure it's the music, and the country, and whatever else, and not that you're an incurious, deaf old fart with shitty taste.
I know there's enough music on my year-end playlist to make it a little (or a lot) overwhelming, but please do not sleep on these EPs. So many great ones this year, especially ...
I make up for not having a baseball podcast anymore by listening to an absurd amount of baseball podcasts. 😬 @ewpod.bsky.social @baseballprospectus.com @enosarris.bsky.social @dvr.bsky.social @sammillerbb.bsky.social @grantbrisbee.bsky.social @andymccullough.bsky.social @cespedesbbq.bsky.social
Worked Cecilio Guante into the mix tonight, which was a real treat.
