This is great. I love the focus on the band’s “pop years”, which were what made them click for me. “Miss You” off of The Tenement Year is a lifelong favorite.

“1998’s Pennsylvania and 2002’s St. Arkansas are burned out, dilapidated, rusted-shut Americana records for those of us who don’t believe in the concept of time passing (and thus are constantly bewildered by the change happening around us).” A clear eyed and excellent tribute:

RIP David Thomas, 1953-2025. I wrote a bit about what I make of the world of Pere Ubu this Memorial Day:

From yesterday:

At a Buffalo Tom gig at Town & Country in London in the '90s, J Mascis was hanging w/us in the dressing room in his typically laconic way. But then George Wendt popped his head in to say hello, J rose out of his chair and exclaimed, “NORM!” I've never seen him as animated before or since. RIP NORM!

Had no idea that that one Death Cab album was about this

Thanks to Rosy Overdrive for including Ryan Allen in this!

Hits included in Bandcamp’s “Oakland’s Borderless Post-Punk Scene” @bandcamp.com daily.bandcamp.com/scene-report...

I love that BBJ said "we're breaking up" in response to technical difficulties and it got reported as GBV breaking up. Sitcom plotline-ass thing to happen

Thanks for the nod to Hamlet in your “Also notable” call outs! hamletmusic.bandcamp.com/album/light-...
