Easy Street – Wait For The Day

This is my old guitar teacher’s group Easy Street. His name is Ed Antonelli. He’s the guy in the middle wearing leather pants. He gave me this 45 years ago. I was surprised to find it on YouTube. Thanks Ed, you were an excellent teacher and I have this to remind me how musically inclined you are.

this is one of the more cursed thoughts I've had in a while and I am remiss to even bring it up but if I don't at least describe it to someone I'm going to draw it and idk if I could live with myself if I did

when fran yassified the guardians and corbin got very excited to momentarily have tiddies, my meme-infested brain immediately conjured the image of slake waking up from top surgery and asking "where's corbin?" and the nurse replying "who do you think took your huge naturals?"

I am haunted by this image. I see it when I close my eyes. please send help

like if u cry every time :'(

conflicting desires for lyke and duvall in sangfielle season 2:

-duvall low-key resenting lyke over the chine thing

-lyke high-key resenting duvall over the oratorio thing and EXPECTING duvall to resent him over chine but instead it's the same one-sided tension that they had on the jade moon

i want them to be involuntary friends. I want it to look like a huge 8ft tall straight* guy calling his obviously gay best friend a wretched bitch and everyone is a little uncomfortable about it except for duvall, who may or may not be behind lyke's bizarrely bad luck when it comes to flies landing in his drinks.

(*i don't think lyke is straight but i do think he's the type of bisexual man that people assume is straight)

Stephen Becker — Middle Child Syndrome (Record Euphoria)

Photo by Chris Weiss

Singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and producer Stephen Becker creates artful, knowing pop music in which all the elements in the mix, well, pop. Bright and airy, these ten songs benefit from Becker’s approach to production, which always feels punchy but spacious, each instrument given a chance to shine. However, the artistry also comes from how expectations are turned on their head, and what seems simple and digestible on the surface turns out to have a sting in the tail. Take the chorus of “The Answer,” for example. Becker harmonizes sweetly with guest vocalist Taylor Vick, but the line doesn’t sound like a happy outcome: “I gave you the answer that you wanted” — at what cost?

Middle Child Syndrome holds a similar appeal to 2022’s A Calm That Shifts — which I praised for “how subtly it insinuates its way into your consciousness” — but this one feels more elusive, fidgety, and uncertain. “Pause and Reason” opens the album with a sharp intake of breath, the sound of a record button being pressed, and a count-in. But rather than launching straight in, there’s a twinkling cloud of hesitant synthesizer tones. When the song does kick off with its forcefully strummed acoustic and fuzz guitars, there’s already uncertainty behind the bravado.

The tellingly titled “Waste Away” is a brisk, cut-time country strut with an existential crisis woven into the words. Likewise, though “Spray Paint” has an undeniably jaunty bounce to the music, on the chorus Becker sings, “I’m not sure if anyone is listening / Does it even count if no one’s there to be a witness?” At the end of side A, “Range” gives Becker a more sparse and pensive musical environment to reflect upon his anxieties, with some lovely vocal harmonies from Alena Spranger: “I’m not lost, I’m just outside my range / I’m not lost, I’m just a little spaced.” It’s a welcome change of pace, punctuated by some surprising production details, such as string swells and whirring effects.

On side B, “I Held An Echo” see-saws delicately between lonely minor-key verses and heartening major-key choruses backed by Katie Von Schleicher. “Picturing Cosmos” feels like a country cousin of “Waste Away,” but more down-tempo and lo-fi, with aching cries of pedal steel to counterbalance the rhythm section’s reluctant trudge. “Signal” strips things right back to guitar and voice, the vocal melody tightly following the guitar as the edges of the mix are troubled by percussive details, piano stabs, and atmospheric rumbling. The song builds, trying to break out of its entropy, only to fall back into its original form, followed by a curious vaporwave outro. “Ought” echoes the fuzzy, driving sway of “Pause and Reason,” with more self-doubt and personal dissection in the chorus: “I’m thinking I’m not who I ought to be.”

The closing track, “Fury,” offers a neat summation of the album’s themes and charms. Lonely descending electric guitar lines and Becker’s voice are buoyed along by melancholy woodwinds, but only for so long. “It’s OK you didn’t graduate,” Becker coos, “You just had other plans.” A final relieved outbreath, and it’s over. For 37 minutes Becker has a captive listener. Sounds like he could use one.

Do you recognise your voice?

In the microphone, in the phone, in the computer, in the recording. The tapes replay and replay and replay.

They talk back to you.

Your voice, alien to your ears, talks to you.

Do you recognise your face?

In the mirror, in the photo, in the video, in your lovers eyes? The videos loop and loop and loop

They smile out to your.

Your face, alien to your eyes, smiles at you.

Do you recognise yourself?

On the walls, in the photos, on the computer, in your mind? Everything is repeated, looped and changed

You look in on yourself

Your body, what you were and what you will be, is exactly the same as when you last looked.

Do you know who you are anymore?

When I was in high school I used to perform gospel songs at church with one of my best friends. She sang, and I played accompaniment and sang backup. We were actually really close! Then I went to college and we suddenly weren’t anymore—she’d stopped talking to me so she could date this grown man she liked, who I hated.

So when I came home from college that summer, I stopped singing songs with her and started performing at church on my own. The first one I sang was about how people change for the worst slowly, over time. Anyway that’s MY silver springs

green day are really giving this rare perspective of ‘gen x being leftist but also suspicious of modern society and technology like a conservative boomer at the same time’ and honestly I’m not sure how to process it
