Liner Notes (November 27th, 2021)

Thanksgiving

This week’s newsletter looks at the upcoming holiday season and some of the music I find myself throwing on during this time of year. This week, it was a relatively slow music week, but that led me to return to some music I haven’t spun in a while (Mutemath, Academy Is…, Butch Walker). Also, if anyone has some favorite holiday tunes/albums they’d like to recommend, please toss those my way. As always, there’s a playlist of ten songs I enjoyed, and this week’s supporter Q&A post can be found here.

Liner Notes (November 20th, 2021)

This week’s newsletter looks at new music I checked out this week (Adele, Jimmy Eat World, Bad Suns, New Found Glory) as well as some old favorites (Jimmy Eat World, Brian Fallon, Days Away), and then I talk a little about how much I love Edgar Wright. Jimmy Eat World and Edgar Wright praise … could this be anymore of a Jason-themed newsletter?

I was in a bit of a funk last weekend and an extra glass of wine led to some damn fine retail therapy. One of my all time favorites that I was stupid and missed out on when it was re-pressed. Mood elevated just a tad. #vinyl #theformat

This week’s newsletter looks at new music out this week (Taylor Swift, Walk the Moon) as well as looking at some revisits (Dashboard Confessional, Relient K) and some thoughts about trying to sort of, kind of, remember what it was like to do things before the global pandemic. This week’s supporter Q&A post can be found here.

Two years. Two years ago we made our vows amongst friends and family and my entire life changed. Then, within months, the entire world changed. We navigated the first years of marriage amongst a global pandemic, and if we can find a way through this, I believe we can conquer everything. Now coming up on ten years together, I still see you with the same eyes as the day we met. Today I promise again, just like that day two years ago to choose you. Every day. For the rest of my life.

Coffee

This week looks at new music out this week (Webbed Wing, Stand Atlantic, Brian Fallon) and music I listened to through the rest of the week (New Found Glory, Descendents). There are also some thoughts on entertainment I’ve been enjoying and/or suffering through. As always, there’s a playlist of ten songs I liked, and this week’s supporter Q&A post can be found here.

Pumpkin

It’s almost Halloween, and I think one of my cats currently has on a bat costume and is starring in an Instagram video. This week I write about new music I checked out (Florrie, SeeYouSpaceCowboy, The War on Drugs, Ed Sheeran) and old music I revisited (Underoath, Anberlin), and then some thoughts on all the Halloween movies we’ve been watching this week. As always, there’s a playlist of songs I enjoyed, and this week’s supporter Q&A post can be found here.

Liner Notes (October 23rd, 2021)

Halloween

This week’s newsletter has thoughts on the latest Apple event and thoughts on internet drama, and the serenity of realizing you don’t need to have an opinion about everything. Then I go over stuff I revisited this week (Cartel, Finch, The Format) as well as share thoughts on new music out this week (ETID, Super American) and other albums I listened to (No Rome, Mom Jeans). And then I gush about how good the new Dune movie is. As always, there’s a playlist of ten songs, and this week’s supporter Q&A post can be found here.

Let’s count the days
Til winter comes our way
We’re all tired and ready to breathe
And there’s a rumor that there’s
A bitter cold chill in the air
It’s haunting every breath we take
The hint of alcohol and nicotine
It keeps us warm inside
So all your fashion sense aware
The sweaters unfold themselves
