A glowing “mainstream” review of Cheekface?? In THIS economy?? All jokes aside I feel like the hate is way too visceral for them sometimes. I’m always thrilled to see someone willing to give them the fair shake they deserve!
Zach Schonfeld@zachschonfeld.bsky.social · yesterdayTo my mind, Cheekface has emerged as one of the most distinctive and hard-working bands of the '20s. For Pitchfork, I wrote about the new kings of dorky talk-singing, "America's Local Band," Cheekface:
1 like = 1 completely dull mundane fact about me Seems fun! There is in fact more to me besides America’s Local Band lol
💛amber, tbh💜@teas.soccer · 3d ago1 like = 1 completely dull mundane fact about me seems like a fun way to kill time tomorrow :3

Country Joe McDonald has died. He was 80. ☮️🕯️ Give me an F. Give me a U. Give me a C. Give me a K. WHAT'S THAT SPELL! WHAT'S THAT SPELL!
The world could be such a nice place if we allowed it. It's all so goddamn unnecessary. There's no need for any of it. It's so beautiful here. It should be so cool to be alive
Time to listen to this AGAIN… Fuck what’s going on out there. Every single second of it. youtu.be/y0k5DQ3OPeg?...

I don’t even listen to heavy metal all that much, but Black Sabbath was the progenitor of a lot of those kinds of sounds. Paranoid in particular was a frequently played song in my marching band days. RIP Ozzy Ozborne 🤘🏻

Had the absolute best time at TooManyGames yesterday! It was my first convention and I certainly hope it won’t be the last! Shoutout to the staff for making sure everyone got through the TRG meet n greet despite the time shortage 😁 As well as to TRG themselves for the great Thrown Controllers show!
While the other kids were out there watching endless SpongeBob, I was watching the Jetsons, Underdog, and Laff a Lympics. I genuinely think I’m a little more nuanced as a person because of it.
Zone 4 McLovin 🇭🇹@ikickclouds.bsky.social · last yr.You know what I think is hurting younger folks today? The decline of cable TV. Kids today ain’t forced to watch reruns and have an appreciation for older media. Like watching Boomerang on CN and seeing cartoons from the 70s. These lil mfs don’t know shit about Jabberjaw and that’s a shame smh
Reminder! I'm going to be at TooManyGames next weekend, June 27-29! We will be doing a panel, The Runaway Guys: Thrown Controllers on Sunday afternoon with Josh Jepson! Come test your might, battle against the hosts, and win big!
Just bought a pass to Too Many Games for Sunday!! My first real convention 😁😁 Can’t wait to meet @therunawayguys.bsky.social and be at a Thrown Controllers show, these guys and their videos have been helping me through some rough times likely. Both separately and together.
Do you like City Pop, synth pop, and other lofi tunes? Do you like 80s and 90s Japanese culture? Want a band that focuses on their music videos as much as the music itself? I present to you: Ginger Root. Watch “Shinbangumi”, you won’t be disappointed 😁😁 (Photo credit to Ginger Root obviously)
