Since I can’t bookmark these, I’m pinning this “thread of threads” to my profile for easy access, more for my benefit than for yours.

First up: My Dead Oceans Records listening project.

My current listening project is making my way through the Dead Oceans catalogue, so I’ll be threading my thoughts on each of the albums here. I hope you’ll give some of these a look, but feel free to mute as you see fit.

You know you’ve done fucked up when you get hit in the head with an old spud.

Absolutely thrilled that in 1992, SIGHT AND SOUND dedicated an entire page to ENCINO MAN.

Ok, not quite 600. But close.

The 560th addition to my Thing Mood Ring. ❤️

This is why i have 600 pfp’s to choose from… but they’re all of The Thing, and they’ve all been run through the same filter.

Look, it’s great that you keep changing your pfp but just know that means I no longer remember who you are.

Yachts: Yachts

New to me. Formed by art students from Liverpool, Yachts couldn’t decide if they were power pop or new wave, and since they couldn’t decide, we don’t have to either. It’s a fun blend of the two styles, and the entire album is pretty great across the board. With a name…(1/2)

Hell yeah, is the Flying Fucking Club accepting new members?

…like Yachts, and song titles like “Yachting Type” and “Semaphore Love”, I assume they were going for a theme that doesn’t quite shine through. Regardless, a damn fine listen waiting to be rediscovered. (2/2)

Gleep gleep.

Oof, I’ve got some serious raking in my near future.

One Big Multiverse @onebigmultiverse.bsky.social · 16h

THE DEVIL’S REJECTS abandons the spookshow visuals in favor of the grit and grime of backroad exploitation. It’s a better film by a large margin, but not nearly as fun of a film. Some dialogue could still use a polish, but Bill Moseley is a genuinely terrifying figure here.

I would say that hints of my entire personality can be found on this one bookshelf in my room.

One Big Multiverse @onebigmultiverse.bsky.social · 19h

HOUSE OF 1000 CORPSES is a demented dark ride of cinema. It’s silly and unfocused and obsessed with spook show aesthetics, but those aesthetics are at least amazing. Some of the dialogue is cringey, but Rob Zombie is gonna Rob Zombie. I still think he would benefit from a cowriter if nothing else.

Tis the season, I suppose.

They talked me into an engine flush too, but at least they didn’t try to upsell new air filters like they usually do. 🙏

If you’ve subscribed before you already know what you’re in for. I don’t think the issues with browsing are anything new, they’ve just never been fixed.

Just finished the first arc of Absolute Batman, and yeah, it’s pretty rad.

Has anybody even tried to synch these up to see if it’s a WIZARD OF OZ/DARK SIDE OF THE MOON situation?

One Big Multiverse @onebigmultiverse.bsky.social · 1d

You’ll know A.i. has taken over my account when my taste begins to suck. But a quick glance at my timeline will show you that my taste remains unimpeachable, and thus, it is the real me. 🙏

Gary Peacock: December Poems

New to me. Double-bassist Gary Peacock performs 4 solo tracks & 2 where he’s accompanied by Jan Garbarek on saxophone. This is laid back & chilly jazz, so DECEMBER POEMS is kind of an apt title even though it’s all instrumentals. Having a bass player on a jazz…(1/2)

Yep. Maybe a few more years and they’ll fix the browsing issue. 🙄
