Occasional critic, human disaster, naïve progressive. Words: @SetTheTape, @soundspheremag, @LWLies, @stereogum, and my own place. (They/them.)

Finally made the move over to the Blue place, since that actually seems to be taking off now. Find me and, mutuals, share your deets so I can keep up with you.

This account will be dormant from now on, unless Twitter ever gets its shit together. It's been an honour.

At last, my Top 50 Songs of the Year series (presumptively) comes to a complete close on the 10 I could not live without in 2024. If we're going out, we're really going out on top. https://t.co/KgEBpLbWLt

[Callie Petch @CalliePetch]

Day 3 of my Top 50 Songs of 2024 series and we're shooting through a #30 - #11 run with more emotional whiplash than a season of Arcane! https://t.co/xtCeYhd6RE

Friends, strangers, mutual enemies, it's finally time to properly unveil my Top 50 Songs of 2024. We begin with #50 to #31. Feel free to start scrutinising and speculating! https://t.co/FRkPxQgTsB

[Callie Petch @CalliePetch]

This would typically be the point where I start unveilling the Top 50 Songs of the Year.

However, 2024 was so goddamned incredible for music, I ended up with a bunch of almosts I needed to share before we get down to business. https://t.co/lA8ax00Gb0

Whilst I'm back on this toxic dumpster fire site to pimp Listmas before fleeing back to BlueSky, I'd just like to announce that I am buying up all available stock for Paper Boyfriend going into 2025. They're quickly becoming one of my favourite new music-centric video essayists.

Here's the final part of my ridiculous Year in Gigs, the very best of the best. Includes @tmbg, @charli_xcx, @vampireweekend, @SPRINTSmusic and more! https://t.co/AzqrSP7S2N

[Callie Petch @CalliePetch]

Got so caught up in Wallace & Gromit last night that I forgot to plug Part 3 of my 2024 gigs ranking. @itsthedare! @confidencemanTM! @probpatterns! @METZtheband! @cheekfaceREAL! So many more please never let me do this again! https://t.co/bumnadaVCw

[Callie Petch @CalliePetch]

Day 2 of Listmas covers another 12 gigs that I went to this year. Includes @frikoo4u, @DreamWifeMusic, @jungle4eva, @SpanishLuvSongs and more! https://t.co/9Kp37i1UH7

[Callie Petch @CalliePetch]

Hopping back on once a day for the next week only because Listmas has officially started and I want to get eyes on these exhausting pieces I wrote.

Here's Part 1 of me ranking all 46 (proper) gigs I saw this year. Back tomorrow with another part. https://t.co/0uxPv8SNLX

#NowPlaying: "The Past is Still Alive" by @HFTRR.

[Callie Petch @CalliePetch]

Best season in a long time, even with FIA bullshit doing its best to cloud things. See you all again in March! #AbuDhabiGP

[Callie Petch @CalliePetch]

Would also make a great double bill with the thematically similar, and similarly excellent, Juror #2. #Conclave

[Callie Petch @CalliePetch]

#NowWatching Conclave.

[Callie Petch @CalliePetch]

Come for the catty Catholics and political gamesmanship, stay for the moving exploration of a crisis of faith and Ralph Fiennes reluctant yet cold career standout performance. An excellent drama. #Conclave

[Callie Petch @CalliePetch]

@chrisconnor96 I saw the trailer and went "wow, this is such a blatant rip-off of Non-Stop, with a bit of Phone Booth mixed in" only for the last title card to say it's actually by Jaume Collet-Serra which knocked me for a loop.

🎵 On Boxing Day. Robbie Williams looks to entertain you as a CGI monkey in #BetterMan.

✏️@CalliePetch lets love be their energy in their ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review, declaring it a biopic unafraid to go for gigantic swings at every possible op.

@TyleKurner Wow, why don't you just @ me next time, coward!

[Callie Petch @CalliePetch]

Oh wow, people were not exaggerating at all when they said Devil May Cry 2 absolutely sucks, huh?
