Figured this little bit of pre-interview banter would be a fun outtake to share. I just posted the full interview on the fantano channel, which is a convo between Anthony and writer Kelefa Sanneh about the state of music criticism, and Sanneh's recent article about how music critics seem to have lost their edge. Enjoy!

Hi; it's Austen and this is a pretty embarrassing post to make, but it's probably pretty obvious by now that I've been struggling a bit this year. Insomnia sucks. OCD sucks. I'm feeling broken and panicked, and am not alone or special in that, but it's really taken me off the ball when it comes to editing. I'm really sorry about this, and have h...

💿 Black Sabbath Vol. 4 LIVESTREAM DATE & TIME 💿
Thank you to everyone who suggested an album for this month's stream! Not surprising to see so many requests for a Black Sabbath album in the wake of Ozzy's passing. I gave Anthony a choice between any of their classic albums and he wants to do Vol 4. The stream'll be Thursday (the 31st) at 9PM EDT. Hope to see y'all th...

NEW MUSIC FRIDAY 7/11/25 (Clipse / Justin Bieber) --ALSO IMPORTANT UPDATE ON THE NMF ARCHIVE--
Hi guys, sorry to say i'm going to have to start removing old (like several-years-old) NMF recordings from Vimeo in order to make room for new VODs. In like the past year or so, the platform started imposing storage limits even on paid accounts. I'm already paying more than I feel the service is worth and the next tier up is ridiculous. Sorry I'...

Thank you so much for supporting us this month! Now's that magical time when you hit us with your HOT TAKES, UNPOPULAR OPINIONS, and TOUGH QUESTIONS, but i think it'd be a nice change of pace seeing as we're at the midpoint of the year to go over what you guys think are the best and worst albums of the year thus far.

Other topics include the Sinners soundtrack deserving a review, and Lars Ulrich being an overhated drummer.

Thank you to everyone who suggested an album for this month's stream! In light of Sly Stone's recent passing, we'd like to go with There's a Riot Goin On. Obviously one of the greatest funk and soul albums ever made that, for better or worse, remains thematically relevant today. The stream'll be Monday (the 30th) at 9:30PM EDT 2025-06-28 16:52:28 +0000 UTC View Post
