Episode 56

Welcome back. This month’s installment is heavy on guitars and snarls. I’m starting to think that I need to bring out the magnifying glass for more electronically-inclined sounds as they’ve been sorely lacking the last few months. This shouldn’t be misconstrued as an indictment of March’s contribution to the AE oeuvre; crunch and gristle are welcomed in these parts and hopefully you feel the same.

Do the colder months (this query only applies to us in the Northern Hemisphere, I guess) make you covet certain sounds? I find my listening trends follow the climate to a certain extent. But, contrarianism abounds.

Now that I’ve potentially dissuaded you from clicking play (truly, please listen) I’d like to remind you that only underground music is real. And that being said, thank you for your continued support. See you sooner than you think for the Anxious Karaoke SPECIAL EDITION episode in a matter of time.

Episode 44.5: Anxious Karaoke III

The Return…… I have for you the third annual iteration of my all-cover-songs special. I omit (don’t check my receipts) covers for this project as I find them to be pandering as a general rule; however, I am not immune to narcissism and I started this cornball tradition during the pandemic’s heights because I missed karaoke due to the scourge of social distancing. As a lame my birthday is the rare time I can get fucked up and fuck up a song by a recording artist. Hence, Anxious Karaoke. This is all silly fun, I’ll see you in a couple weeks with earnest artistic expression (vomit).
