Hit me with Trey’s top 5 albums

Nevermind is incredible, of course. Def not a knock on it. I just think In Utero raises the bar incrementally. The hottest take would be where does the unplugged album land? There are times when it’s number one nirvana for me.

My most controversial music opinions: I believe most of these things, most of the time

1. Craig Finn is a top five lyricist of the last 25 years

2. Let It Be by The Replacements is better than Let It Be by The Beatles

3. The Velvet Underground and Nico is the best album of all time

4. (Getting spicy now) Rage Against the Machine is the most overrated band of all time, and I actually think they kind of suck. Good in theory, but the actual result not so much. The idea of them is better than them.

5. pre-American idiot Green Day is actually pretty great

6. Darkness on the edge of town > Born to Run

In Utero > Nevermind

Stillmatic > Illmatic

7. Prince is better than Michael Jackson, and it’s not close

8. Bob weir is an almost legendarily terrible back up vocalist

9. Joy Division is good but not transcendently so. Give me echo and the bunnymen instead.

10. Yankee Hotel Foxtrot is better than every Radiohead album (nothing against Radiohead)

Non-exhaustive list

“Look out honey

‘Cause I’m using technology,

Ain’t got time

To make no apology…”

“Patience is bitter, but its fruit is sweet.”

To all of you who made it through that long bear, who hodled through the collapses, the panics, and the handwringing…you earned everything that comes next.

Paprika or nostalghia. Haven’t had a good Tarkovsky jam in a while

You guys are the best

Bullish. Shout out to nostr:npub164q45vfa8prpl7f63stsl9qm9n22v6julkasjdqxjc8kevchsj0sp42rl3 for all his hard work on the pod. Taking it to a whole new level. nostr:note1rur2f5ap9p5pgu0jsfq6ueukz6lc2clvs46r5u7h0swm8t7m8qgsseuj9d

Def the worst, especially with and for a young child

nostr:npub164q45vfa8prpl7f63stsl9qm9n22v6julkasjdqxjc8kevchsj0sp42rl3 you’ll like these guys I think. Recommended to me by nostr:npub1z0rrmak9v5drkr3a20e5pehrwzc5pf392apfl5t9h9qk928nay3s7wxuxf. Some of that sweet melodic fuzz.

Love this. “Perfect pitch black” is 👌. Also dude are you Vertigo Kidd? Been listening to cold neon blues a lot!

Oh nice, so actually very little friction at all!

Awesome, gonna start sending to all my fav bands

Ah right on right on, good. This is the way, I think. Much better than blackout. Appreciate you, Derek 🤝

I shall follow your lead, friend 🫡. Are we going full non-nostr social media blackout this time around?

100%, heartily agree. I think it’s worth it though, for folks with moderate to large followings on X, to make known on X that #NostrNovember means followers gotta make the jump to nostr to keep up. nostr:note1rul2my04hxvnjv62gk8taflscsszkdmqe2xvhkzd7y5n0mrnhycqqca26t

Okay guys how are we getting all our favorite bands on nostr:npub1yfg0d955c2jrj2080ew7pa4xrtj7x7s7umt28wh0zurwmxgpyj9shwv6vg?

I’m just going to start DM’ing them all unless anyone has any better, more coordinated ideas.

Obvious hurdles and threshold issues are they have to be amenable to receiving BTC, which means not thinking it’s just some scam internet money. Might require some education.

Then have to get a wallet set up. Which, if step one is in the bag, shouldn’t be too heavy of a lift.

I personally think of bands I’ve spent hundreds of hours listening to, that I quote all the time, philosophize about, etc. Bands who’ve given me way more value and joy than can be compensated merely by buying a record or going to a show.

The Hold Steady are probably the one that comes to mind first for me. But there are many.

Would love to be able to send them bitcoin directly.
