Check Out My Interview With Maritime Vinyl, Complete With Pics And Endless Rambling

If you've ever read any of my opinion pieces over the years, you're no doubt well aware of my tendency to ramble on about a subject until it no longer makes sense and/or I'm talking about a completely different subject.

That didn't stop Brad at Maritime Vinyl from asking me to partake in an interview for his blog.  We touch on my music collection, my love of Pearl Jam and the long lost art of the mixtape, among other things.  You can check out the interview right here.

In addition to my incredibly long-winded responses to questions that didn't need them, you'll also find some pics taken from deep within the dark recesses of my music room (bonus tidbit that didn't come up in the interview for some reason: I call it the Jam Room, for obvious reasons).

A huge thank you to Brad for giving me the opportunity to hold nothing back and go FMD (Full Music Dork).  And, apologies to anyone who never wanted to see me go FMD.

Year in Rock 2025

  Alright, I've got some explaining to do.   By now anyone who's visited this blog is well aware of how infrequently I've used this space in recent years; aside from the occasional fertile year of content, I really haven't posted all that often over the last five years or so. There are many reasons for this, which have already been outlined in previous apology posts; but, essentially, it boils down to my own laziness and the cold reality that blogs are, like Refused (again), fucking dead. So, I wouldn't hold my breath for a triumphant return to reviews, or even semi-regular posts, but:   a) I feel like Year in Rock posts have always belonged here and, even though I've experimented with different methods of presentation recently and been satisfied, the "blink and you missed it" unveiling via Facebook stories this year was perhaps ultimately a disservice to the records I lauded. After all, cramming the list into short videos isn't too far off from ju...

Year in Rock 2016: Solo Artist Nominees

Artists who stand alone, who put their name on their album jackets and assume full responsibility for the art they give to the world, exhibit a kind of bravery that I've always admired. It takes courage to stand on that proverbial stage in solitude; this year's nominees faced varying degrees of challenges, but they all shared the desire to stare down the criticisms and expectations of every other individual they shared the air with and exclaim, "Don't worry. I've got this." Your Year in Rock 2016 nominees for Solo Artist Recording of the Year are:

Year in Rock 2024

  So, how weird is it to post a Year in Rock 2024 write-up a year late? Honestly, this is just for posterity; with a post to wrap up 2025 possibly posted by the time you see this, I couldn't stand the gap that would otherwise be present. I'll have more to say, but will wait until the Year in Rock 2025 post to say it. Instead, I'll just dive right in with the list. This will be the least exciting Year in Rock post you've ever seen.   25. The Smashing Pumpkins - "Aghori Mhori Mei" 24.  Japandroids - "Fate & Alcohol" 23. Pearl Jam - "Dark Matter" 22. Cheekface - "It's Sorted" 21. Kim Gordon - "The Collective" 20. High Vis - "Guided Tour" 19. Acid Mammoth - "Supersonic Megafauna Collision" 18. Microwave - "Let's Start Degeneracy" 17.
