live nation is actively killing publications that cover new artists while also promoting festivals that almost exclusively cater to nostalgia and legacy acts. these problems are not unrelated.

“Music publications BrooklynVegan, Alternative Press, Revolver, and Goldmine have been gutted by parent company Veeps... Nearly all the staff at each publication appear to have been laid off yesterday. Veeps, which is now owned by Live Nation, acquired the publications in 2024 or 2025”

might have a lead on a cassette copy of @thecure.com’s ‘kiss me kiss me kiss me’ at a local shop, got a msg out to see if it sold yet. would be my third cassette. here’s the current state of the collection. #musicsky

still ain’t got the patience to fight with apple music on my PC, so it’s more physical media. i got Elliott Smith’s ‘XO’ on the CD player for winding down from work. stark contrast to the @pupilslicer.bsky.social CD i’ve had playing in my truck the last couple-few days. #musicsky

We no longer have TV EVENTS that result in a WATERCOOLER MOMENT. This is not because of changing delivery tech or our monocultureless era. It's because ever since the dawning of the Water Wars, it would be extremely dumb to leave a whole jug of potable sitting around a workplace with no armed guard

for real tho, about half of the time when i look at an auto-modded post on here, it’s been taken wildly out of context. auto-moderation on here needs to dial it back or dial it in.

hard agree. this comp was my introduction to them. such a fun band. #musicsky

here's a band that should be bigger than they are music.apple.com/us/album/hol....

Harvey Pekar was one of the first underground comix artist that came up alongside R. Crumb and this Kickstarter to preserve his life's work only has 7 backers (counting me)! Kick a few dollar in if you can.

journalists so often make the mistake of thinking that being good at journalism means that they’re in any way, shape or form qualified to have opinions on complicated topics on which they may report. otherwise, why have epidemiologists & engineers & other professionals? let journalists do it all.

this is a great album, y’all. #musicsky #hiphop

Dr. Damien P. Williams has to go the way his blood beats@wolven.blacksky.app · 2mo ago

…Are you kidding me? This country's treatment of voice actors is fucking abysmal. Aqua Teen Hunger Force essentially built Adult Swim, & if there were any justice, Carey Means shouldn't have to work another day in his life. Between this & Andy Merrill's trouble, i just… what the fuck. What the fuck.

The first six Who albums are all masterpieces and no band has influenced us more than 1965-1967 era Who
