Picked up their record in Copenhagen over Xmas and holy hell, it's great. If you like everything from Studio One to The Aggrolites, you need to hear The Chains. And that Rancid cover...hoo boy!

Again...we could've had this. Goddammit, America.

I feel terrible for the friends of the two women behind me in the RSD line. From what I can tell, they fucking hate every single one of you.

Nardwuar once again proving he is an international treasure.

Hot tip of the day: Text a couple friends out of the blue today. Laugh. Trade dumb GIFs back and forth. Act a fool. It's so worth it.

This is a great fucking read along with Josh's Turnpike piece. Well worth your time.

Fentanyl Tariff's first 7" was a banger.

He needs to change his walkout song to this. #MugMugMug youtu.be/ipefv55SXpc?...

This week has suuuuuucked. But at least I get to spend an embarrassing amount of money on RSD Saturday to help myself feel better. (SPOILER ALERT: I won't actually feel better.)

It's especially shameful when you remember that Eunice Kennedy Shriver started Special Olympics. Infuriating.

So are we still the laughing stock of the world or no?

Hear me out...what about a Punch Zack Hample in the Face Night at every stadium?

“It doesn’t matter that the baseball field was there first. How can that make it OK?”

As disappointing as this is, he's good friends with Mike Love. We should've seen this coming a mile away.

Oh no. Maybe he should try to not be so completely insufferable and unlikeable?

Donita rules! I'll never forget her guest listing me when they opened for the Beasties during a radio interview because I called in and they said "we don't know anybody in Kansas City." 15-year-old me was fucking stoked. And had to beg my cousin to take me on a couple hours' notice.

Please RT/share if you can: Friends, after a decade of freelance work, I am trying to find some full-time work. Everything I do currently is contracted stuff, and while I absolutely love it I also love being able to afford things like groceries and medicine. 1/3

Coolest thing that's happened this week!

Fired up to finally see the mighty True Loves tonight in Denver. youtu.be/WBqoxJbAtus

High Vis & Militarie Gun tour canceled. Dammit.

Really? The dude who just today said, "Groceries. It says a bag with different things in it"?!?!?

The one and only Refused, everybody.

In a world of John Josephs, be Walter Schriefels.

We are all fortunate to exist on the same plane as Walter Schriefels. Dude is simply the coolest cat in hardcore ever.

Proud of you, Wisconsin. Go enjoy an Old Fashioned with an extra glug or two of Brandy. You've more than earned it.

Leave it to Dennis Lyxzen to thoroughly confuse 99.9% of the crowd by playing Robert Wyatt's Stalingrad, early Pink Floyd and Miles Davis electric freakouts as house music before the Refused show. Fucking love it.

TFW you hustle to get to the show because you thought doors open at 6...roll up at 6:30 to realize they actually open at 7.

Election officials in Milwaukee, Wisconsin are reporting ballot shortages due to “unprecedented high turnout.” They urge voters to stay in line if they get there before 8:00 to cast their ballots.

April is Stress Awareness Month? Oh, I'm fully aware of my stress. Thanks though.

Happy Refused's Last Show in Denver Ever Day to those who celebrate. www.youtube.com/watch?v=eC_9...

Super bummed to see these guys call it a day. Fucking rippers all day long. Wish I'd had a chance to see them live. Oh well. Long live Chubby and the Gang! Oi! www.youtube.com/watch?v=mj2Z...
