DUTCH INTERIOR

💻 Flickr, 🛸 Crafting Hoaxes, ♟️ Talking shit in the chess.com chat, and more.

Dutch Interior is a Los Angeles-based alternative band who you might recognize from our best of 2023 and 2024 lists. I’ve seen them described as “Freak Americana,” a term I find befitting for the band behind Blinded by Fame—one of the sickest records of the last few years (10/10, heartstring-tugging fuzzy folky-rock, bangs so hard). Since then, the six-piece has continued to kill it, from touring with DIIV to this week's newest single release, “Fourth Street” (check out the video here). Their upcoming record Moneyball drops this March, and we also hear they’ll be touring and playing festivals like SXSW and Treefort. Until then, you can keep up to date with the band here. Lucky for us, Dutch Interior is here to tell us what they’ve been into.

Levin is one of my favorite contemporary authors, and I think Bubblegum is a masterpiece. It is the fictional memoir of Belt Magnet (a neurotic man child who can speak to inanimate objects) about living in an alternate world where the internet was never invented. It’s lowbrow, it’s highbrow, it’s sad, it’s funny, and it made me rethink my general distaste for contemporary literature. -Jack

Something fun I learned while on a rock climbing trip in Kentucky. Best done outside in the cold, but you could also do it in your kitchen. Lay a paper towel on tinned fish in oil, let it soak up the oil, and light it on fire from the edges. Let it burn for 5-10 minutes, warm your hands, revel, enjoy community, lift the paper towel off, and enjoy smoked fish. -Jack

Online gaming has never been a safe space, and chess is no exception. It’s a game of war: show your opponent who’s boss, get chat banned, live to chat again. -Jack

Unlike a bath where you stew in self hatred, a shower offers a continuous flow to wash the shame as each new thought appears. -Davis

Perpetual nostalgia. A perfect capsule of pre-privacy concern & image storage w/o attachment to identity. like scrolling through a log of DSLR pics of every familiar face you’ve never met. -Davis

I’ve always been concerned about under or overcooking meat. This is the best food thermometer I’ve ever owned, and makes for a much less stressful time in the kitchen. It gives you full deniability when you’re feeding a crowd and they’re suspicious of your steak rarity. A little bit pricey, but worth it. -Hayden

It’s a beautiful animated series and it’s only 10 short episodes, so you can watch it all in one sitting. It’s cute and quotable with an amazing soundtrack (featuring Chris Isaak). Good for a cold night and a warm drink. -Hayden

A few years back I discovered that the bar for viral hoaxes was low enough to bruise my shins on. Slap a royalty-free “crowd screaming” sound effect onto your video of some balloons in the sky and suddenly you have an “alien invasion” ready to amass millions of serotonin-laced views. Amidst the ever-growing barrage of AI deception, I find it’s refreshing to contribute to our era of misinformation the old fashioned way. -Shane

The man behind the Premodernist youtube channel is a serious historian BUT he’s the kind of serious historian who brings passionate, academically-backed consideration to the advice he gives for time traveling to medieval Europe. -Shane

I listened to “Either Way” off Wilco’s album Sky Blue Sky the other day and realized he has some of my favorite guitar solos. I recommend listening through Sky Blue Sky all the way through and just pay attention to the guitar. -Noah

Matthew McConaughey in his prime. Steve Zahn plays a great side kick. It’s like the perfect mix of the Mummy, Indiana Jones, and National Treasure. -Noah
