⚱️ Happy to announce a brand new TRASH MAN EP today - Direct Cremation. Here's a tiny little teaser to whet your appetite...
Finished two small upgrades: 1) Moved off Campaign Monitor and on to Email Octopus. Name is goofier but I will save literal hundreds of dollars a year sending email updates. Not proud that I was paying to send email blasts, can't believe I waited this long to do it but am happy I finally did.

6 track album
couplermusic.bandcamp.com
New Impossible Object emerges. Collab EP from Coupler (Chicago) and sugar sk*-*lls (Nashville). Six songs that emerged from boundary pushing decision making and decades of friendship. A 19-min trip that is immersive & surreal. Listen start to finish. Here's 1-min of "Don't Go Near the Edge"
Check out this visualizer for "Alasseo (알았어)" by Talking with Hands! Little bit of bombastic energy for ya.
Released 13 years ago this week, the debut album from @talkingwithhands.bsky.social! 'The World & Ourselves' is a well balanced dose of bombastic pop-rock cut with a dash of melancholy. I'm quite biased but I think it holds up! Loving the revisit. ykrecords.com/releases/the...
Talking with Hands - The World and Ourselves
Explosive guitar pop born from the influences of ELO, XTC, Jellyfish and a dash of AIR. The World and Ourselves finds that delicate balance between overwhelmingly optimistic music cut with melancholy ...

Hey, it's me! Telling you about the new episode of @majorlabeldebutpod.bsky.social with Rollum Haas of The Features. He talks all about his experience recording, releasing and promoting the bands 2004 *major label debut* on Universal. Great stuff. Out now. linktr.ee/majorlabelde...
Has a charismatic televangelist ever put hands on you and tried to absolve you of wrongdoing? If you're @talkingwithhands.bsky.social, the answer is a surprising YES! "Tell Me Your Sins" pairs this fire-y new song with actual footage of bebe TWH getting the praise treatment.
"the corner of pub rock and art rock" "like power pop with 30% of the pop and none of the power" "like college rock for people who didn't go to college" MUSIC TO TALK OVER, Vol 1 is toe-tapping and easy company, yet sturdy enough to hold up under closer inspection. ykrecords.com/releases/mus...
`Seeds for Cosmic Radio` is a full-length record from Infinite Limb. It embodies the relationship between the seeds in the earth and their fuel emitted from our nearby star. That's an esoteric description but it really does evoke that vibe! Ambient but also immersive. Streaming everywhere now.
💩 By total serendipity, Talking with Hand and Telefone both had "shit" songs nearing completion at the same time. It was obvious forces must be combined! The Shit is a split EP from both bands featuring 2 songs each; four songs that will get you moving. Very happy with how this one turned out.
One of many very mesmerizing shots from the new Telefone video for “ESP.” The early days of skateboarding really were a special time! Watch it youtu.be/hb4BsggloWE?...

🌳 New TOWER DEFENSE! "Fit for Purpose" is a blast about land commodification. Who needs all these damn parking lots?! "Artless Hands" is companion about the profiteers coming for music. Inspired, in part, by @thecroftonshow.bsky.social, Christina Aguilera & Converge. ykrecords.com/releases/fit...
Tower Defense - “Fit for Purpose” / “Artless Hands”
Two bombastic blasts on commodification; one about land, one about sound, both about profiteers disinterested in the common good.
