What normally gives me anxiety (loads of unread communication)
Just feels like relief - and love.❤️
Have never been so happy to hear from all my knuckleheads.

Not stressful at all and definitely not making me avoid texting anyone back or become a recluse 🤩
To be fair, probably at least 50% are dumb brand messages I can’t escape bc I wanted a 20% off coupon I never even ended up using

Texting to check in is nice, but I also love a good chat

I have 3 or 4 active group texts going in and out of my life: a little mini stream of in-jokes, long-running bits, and random nonsense. I’m so lucky to know funny people in my life and it's always a bit of fun relief to dip in, stir the pot and goof off about nothing and it keeps me connected to these people in a fun way.

Hey tyler hopefully this doesn’t violate some PI.FYI golden rule
But after nearly two years of writing, editing and arguing, my book about the EP is coming out in May and can be preordered here:
https://hozacrecords.com/product/aifl/
The book is about the origins, history and cultural impact of the EP since these little objects first started coming out in the 50s.
Over 50 of my music biz friends then helped me shape the list and review the top 200 ever released, according to us (ha).
For those of you who are into this kind of geekery/snobbery, I can’t wait to hear what you think. A labor of love, as all books are! ❤️

I will fail to explain just how much this band meant to me in the 90s.
So I will borrow from AV Club who did a fine job of distilling it:
“Unwound is the best band of the ’90s. Not just because of how prolific, consistent, and uncompromising it was, but because of how perfectly Unwound nested in a unique space between some of the most vital forms of music that decade: punk, post-rock, indie rock, post-hardcore, slow-core, and experimental noise. That jumble of subgenres doesn’t say much; in fact, it falls far short of what Unwound truly synthesized and stood for. Unwound stood for Unwound. But in a decade where most bands were either stridently earnest or stridently ironic, Unwound wasn’t stridently anything. It was only itself. In one sense Unwound was the quietest band of the ’90s, skulking around like a nerdy terror cell. In another sense it was the loudest, sculpting raw noise into contorted visions of inner turmoil and frustration.”
R.I.P. Vern Rumsey.
This is their finest song, from their finest album.
I really can’t say enough about the sheer bloody minded genius of this group. 🖤
