When I first read the screenplay for Blue Velvet when I was 15, before ever watching it, I was immediately spellbound. Since then, David Lynch, eternally curious and questioning, upended my expectations time and time again with his groundbreaking work. RIP to a true original.

Ah, it’s another one of these. Eternally grateful to our mighty group of nine for pulling this off on such short notice for the simple reason that we love music. www.noripcord.com/features/50-...

Wrote an album note about the new Kim Deal, which, not surprisingly, is a lovely listen. music.apple.com/us/album/nob...

Since I’m in year-end list consideration mode, I must give a shout-out to Nap Eyes for writing the best lyrics of 2024.
