This reissue is also out today!

New blog post! I wrote a bunch of words about Developer, the incredible fifth album by Silkworm @timmidyett.bsky.social, being reissued this Friday by Comedy Minus One @jon.wprb.com:

This line... "parlay critical/indie rock underground buzz into larger platforms, sizeable followings...They made Developer instead." You could swap out that album title for a number of others from other bands and that sentence is still spot-on. Lolita Nation after Big Time Chronicles jumped at me.

Certainly! At least Lolita Nation has a couple should’ve-been-hits hidden in there—you just gotta work to get to ‘em.

True, but even Chardonnay, which should've been a hit as released originally, wasn't the nearly 8-minute long version Scott originally wrote that had to get sliced up to fit on the CD. Enjoyng listening to Silkworm this morning. I didn't see them much back in the day for some reason.

I never got to see ‘em—been lucky enough to see Mint Mile and Andy’s band a few times but these reunion shows will be the first for the Worm.

I wonder if I go back enough generations if I can claim distant cousin status to Andy 😂
