Lacuna Coil - Sleepless Empire Even if it doesn’t chart new territory and the instrumentation tends to get blurred, it’s still a grand gesture in a discography chock full of them. Far from becoming complacent, Lacuna Coil go into the night raging.

Hurry Up Tomorrow feels like Tesfaye’s attempt at summing up everything that was great about the Weeknd as a project, but unfortunately, it’s clear that no one ever brought a knife to the recording sessions. spectrumculture.com/2025/02/09/t...

Writing abt #TheLocust , the #SanDiego-bred group of misfits who redefined hardcore as the 20th century morphed into the 21st, is just a fool’s errand. They wrote and performed in jagged bursts and raging threnodies. A record review. @spectrumculture.bsky.social spectrumculture.com/2025/02/04/t...

On one hand, yeah "private taxi for my burrito" is a world-ender of a line. On the other, what differentiates DoorDash or whatever from the pizza delivery guy, except that late capitalism and the gig economy has undermined said pizza guy's already precarious position?
