Car Seat Headrest? It’s pronounced Rivers Huomo

I’d like to think I wasn’t part of the “indie sleaze” moment, but I was given an asymmetrical haircut at a party more than once.

@NickMarzluf @foryourhealthoh @EMHudsonlives @CadenClinton Both the plot and the crust have thickened

In November, @foryourhealthoh stayed at my studio for two weeks. I haven’t been able to find my pizza cutter ever since. Not making any accusations, but it seems like more than a coincidence.

I bet there are some people who are vegan because they hate animals and just want nothing to do with them.

@anotherRahulJ My favorite Jimmy Eat World album is their 2001 self-titled featuring the hit single “Salt Sweat Sugar”

[Ryan Wasoba @RyanWasoba]

Ate a bunch of cashews and then listened to the second best Jimmy Eat World record #postnutclarity

@emperorx I still haven’t checked out your music because I haven’t listened to Emperor I through Emperor IX, so I don’t think I’d understand

Dave Grohl joke involving the rhythm method.

@khamsinband I’m biased because of professional/personal relationships with them, but I always appreciated Foxing above their peers for their ambition and complete lack of anything resembling pop punk in their music and (especially) vocals

[Ryan Wasoba @RyanWasoba]

Tim Walz is the kinda dude that buys a pair of white New Balances every year and demotes the previous year’s pair to the status of “mowin’ shoes”

[Ryan Wasoba @RyanWasoba]

New @foxing single is sick and indicative of the risks and vibes you'll find all over their new record. I was a fly on the wall for much of it, and the band asked me to write a "warts and all" bio for the album. You can read it on their Spotify profile and probably other places.

@emperorx 3) I'm starting to view loudness as almost an accessibility issue. Don't necessarily mix/master for folks listening on busted phone speakers or Dollar Tree earbuds, but also don't assume people are listening in ideal situations, are able to turn it up above background noise, etc

[Ryan Wasoba @RyanWasoba]

@emperorx 2) With that said, most normalization algorithms do NOT turn things up if delivered too quiet. So (other than keeping a specific track lower for its cohesion in an album) I see no reason to ever deliver something at -15 or quieter
