August’s playlist includes singles from Osees, Agriculture, Rafiq Bhatia, Sunflowers, Nuclear Dudes, Ritual Mass, pôt-pot, Snōōper, Automatic, Slow Crush, and more.

Agriculture’s upcoming album, The Spiritual Sound, was recently announced via the harrowing single “Bodhidharma.” Water Damage’s Instruments LP, along with their upcoming single-track live album, Live At Le Guess Who?, caught my attention.

A few words about albums by loscil, Coffin Prick, Grails, and Kilynn Lunsford.

The recent 30th anniversary of Fugazi’s fourth LP, Red Medicine, led to some thoughts, feelings, and admittedly self-indulgent prattle.

A few words about Body / Head, the improvisational duo composed of Kim Gordon and Bill Nace, and the group’s second performance of a two-night residency at Solar Myth, 5/5/25.

A post written in increments over the course of April, I share some thoughts on new music from Ceremonial Abyss and Shifting Heigo, an unearthed track by 7 Seconds, lament METZ via the band’s one-off reunion, and post some videos from the recently departed Dave Allen, Al Barile, Clem Burke, and David Thomas.

A few words about Long Spells, Jeff Zeigler, and FACS, who performed at Johnny Brenda’s on 4/8/25.
