Time was, nothing could make me swoon like a "punk rock chick." Still applies, if not as violently. And yet, I spent years avoiding listening to The Muffs. In fact, for reasons I can't articulate, there was something inside me that thought that I probably wasn't going to like them at all, this despite their leader, the late lamented singer/guitarist/chief songwriter Kim Shattuck, being exactly the sort of woman I would have dated in high school and college (still would, if such a woman would have me). Well, I finally buckled down and listened to their first album (thirty years after the fact!), and it's terrific. Really great. She had a hell of an ear for melody. This is a fave from the album, and now I'm looking forward to hearing all the rest of their material.

I feel like this song is making me think of someone specific, but I simply can't imagine who it might be.

Might have posted this before. It's cool not to like the Mountain Goats (I happen to, but kind of irregularly). The opening monologue for this is possibly the funniest story about scoring speed I've heard...

This track is exceptional not only because it rocks the fuck out , but also because it represents an excellent halfway point between their '60s psychedelia and hard rock sides.

This one just bubbled up out of some wrinkly brain recesses for the first time in eons today. How long since you thought of THIS?*
*The song that is. Not the movie.

This was featured in the movie Enys Men (2022).

I've never been as into the Pixies as a lot of other people I know (although I adore Kim Deal), but, as well as being a great song, this video defines dorky cool.
