I think he’s got good faith in the hands of sony. You’re right on the money about the movie soundtracks- which he’s been punching out a bunch of.

Ever since he sold his music, he’s been exploring other avenues such as selling instruments, running a fashion line, and chilling/being cool.

i guess to ballpark a number (considering pink floyd sold their catalog for 400million to sony), I’m gonna take a stab and say somewhere around 300million.

kind of currents ethos lol

@chubes

the only thing that mattered to me was julien baker closing her set out with jason molina’s “farewell transmission”

got a free ticket so i went Saturday but honestly- the booking’s embarrassing- especially considering the amazing week of music that lead up to it.

Anyway- least we got dog daze to look forward to.

“Kahlua Shooter / DUI Scooter” might just be the best couplet o’ 2024. Mark Twang.

this is incredible Wes. Just relistened through the whole FATHURDAY set and feel like I was thrown through a time loop.
34 mins on Cannon Rogers’ set has an excellent cover of “Jolene” FYI.

I remember at the first Dawning show when Brett introduced the band and gave a little speech about Charleston and the state of everything. It was really special moment at Cutty’s. Bro has great taste in music.

You want to take a trip down memory lane? Check out this article I did on Joey’s pre-Cry Baby band, Butterfly. Way back in 2017 (!).

Wonder if the new Cry Baby stuff will be more like this!

this rules- thanks for sharing!

#YearOfCryBaby – the album is shaping up so strongly- absolutely loving all the singles so far + we get Kid Lake debut album in August.

Smooth, brilliant, entrancing, and addicting all come to mind when attempting to pin words to this masterwork from Marcus Brown. It’s so soulful and danceable, the opening 3 track run is easily one of the best 3 track runs of last year. It’s a little bit front-loaded but it awesome all the way through. As fresh as it gets in the year of our lord 2023. Following the success of this record, Marcus Brown signed to XL records.
Favorite Tracks: “Quantum Suicide,” “Shed That Fear,” “Daddy,” “The Fields,” and “Workers Interlude”

Their 2024 release Catching Chickens EP is easily one of the best pieces of music to come out this year! Peak!
“Hell of a Ride” and “Poison-Soaked” are SOTY contenders (both in my top 5 so far).

UPDATE: Cry Baby are no longer a boy band and are now a rock band

RIP Akira Toriyama 🐐

Just wanted to share how f*cking awesome it is that there’s a deftones needledrop in an early 2000’s dbz movie- makes me laugh a bit but simultaneously makes me remember being a kid in the 2000’s and i love it
