Holy majoly! Tons of new #vinyl reissues this week, including a gaggle of Rhino Rocktober releases, hard-to-find Eno, live Hendrix, a slightly puzzling Tears for Fears campaign, sooo much jazz, and a wonderful hidden gem from Scottish indie band the Orchids. Plus, the latest reissue announcements!

Maybe Djokovic wins, maybe Djokovic loses, but that towel box is gonna smell like barf for the entire fortnight.

There’s something so insulting about seeing a Chik-fil-A commercial on a Sunday.

fuck all Texas billionaires but especially fuck Tom Dundon

a bit unnerving to see these little guys running around freely and not attached to spinning metal rods

thanks but I’ll sit tight until the 253rd
