I’m a firetalk rec fan through and through. Post-punk goodness with a very moody feeling. Hope to maybe get signed by them someday when my band puts more music out soon.

My pick for SOTY. I NEED BLOOD. By The Furniture Group (great new project from Teo Hedigan and Melody English). Tyler texted it to me and said it was up my alley. It was in fact, literally more than any other song this year. Just cool as hell. That bassline. Transfixing! 2024 was kind of the best year ever but tonally there was something “ominous”, vibes skewing toward “moody” and “intense”, this song encapsulates that. And like yeah, I need blood. We all need that…

Two things. All of my peers make music, but rarely do any of their songs make it into my listening catalog. Also, I hate emo. The Branching Out EP may have changed that? This EP takes the things about emo that turned me off and turns me on to them. Lyrics devoid of individualism, *riffs*, and fun vibes. This was made by a BAND who’s having fun and I’m having fun with them. It makes you want to go to a show again. The words are so stupid yet comforting, the musicianship indulgent but exciting, the affect emo with a 1/4 cup of hope. It’s self taught musicians cosplaying the Berklee School of Music School of Music but without the chord sheets or pretension. Track titles such as Vampire Vibes, Confessions of an Aries, and This Wasn’t On My Planner display a finger on the pulse ironic sincerity that actually works for once. It’s about heartbreak, being nervous, having a crush, and wanting to die. Perfect for my little brothers friend/ex pupil of mine from my time as counselor at a rock n’ roll music camp located in the basement of the church in my suburb who attended their EP release show in New York. I think this appeals to 16 year old life noobs, 20 something year old haters like myself, and even the chicks. I could listen to them whine all day.

Absolutely loved everything about this deadpan comedy/music series. Definitely is going to be a new comfort tv show for me from here on out. The topics they cover in the show to the setting in New York City is absolutely perfect and still super relevant to this day

I love this band‘s discography so far. Can’t wait for the new record to come out!
It’s experimental a lot of the time but it works. Crazy to think this band started in my hometown and then moved to Philly!

I’m really not ready to join the mid-20s club this year 😖 I really hope aging becomes sexy for everyone so I can stop feeling like my value will decline as a femme person as I age 🥲
