USCHO Music Thread: We All Have A Crush On Shirley Manson

[MissThundercat]

Spotify recently added a feature called "DJ" which is just another suggestive playlist, but this one includes an AI voice that occasionally announces the next song. I couldn't place why the voice sounded familiar and I just realized it sounds exactly like when John Mulaney does his bit about Ice-T from Law & Order. Now I can't unhear it.

Used the DJ feature this morning and gave me "based on recent listening," so I got:

"Butterflies and Hurricanes"- Muse
"Only Happy When It Rains"- Garbage
"My Immortal"- Evanescence
"Heaven Knows"- The Pretty Reckless
"Closing Time"- Semisonic

Not bad choices for a Friday morning.

Still the gold standard for DJing, after 36 years.

Just heard this on Pandora. It's the lead single off the upcoming Hackney Diamonds.

I have a relative in Australia (dad’s cousin, my paternal grandmother was from Brisbane) who tells fantastic stories from his days being a roadie for various acts that came through NSW and Victoria in 70s-80s. One of my favorite connections on Facebook.

The country that gave us Margot Robbie and Isla Fisher?

You stand there in your wrongness and be wrong.

I love story songs.

Here is Lupe speaking at MIT as guest lecturer in a Media Studies course.

Blood and Thunder: The Sound of Alberts. A well made doc about the origins of the 'Australia Sound' born of the Alberts and the Youngs in the early 60's.

Jimmy Eat World and Fall Out Boy are coming to the Van Andel Arena next March.

A good chance to indulge in late 1990s/early 2000s nostalgia.

Saw Jimmy Eat World a couple years ago with Dashboard Confessional for our first post-covid concert. They still put on a good show, would recommend it if you can go.

I <3 me some Duff McKagan. Kepler for sure will recognize many of the bands he references in this.

I know he started as a punk drummer (it used to be a joke in Seattle that every "made" local musician has played drums for The Fastbacks), but his bass playing for GnR still doesn't get enough credit.
