Genuinely one of the best rock songs of its era and they've done nothing but paint the town beige since.

Dave Grohl wrote “Everlong” while falling in love with Louise Post of Veruca Salt, shortly after the collapse of his first marriage. The drum track was actually recorded by Grohl himself after original drummer William Goldsmith quit the band out of frustration with the producer.

The song reached #3 on the Billboard Alternative Airplay chart, but its legacy transcends rock radio. It famously became TV host David Letterman's all-time favorite song, and he had the band perform it upon his return from heart surgery in 2000 and again to close his final late-night broadcast in 2015. The song's dreamlike music video, directed by Michel Gondry, won the Best Group Video award at the 1998 MTV Video Music Awards.

Szechuan is one of the best mains u can get at a chinese takeaway but it's also the one most seem to fuck up, truly a tragedy

"It's grandmas against genocide's fault we don't catch murderers and pedophiles" uh, ok lol

[Metropolitan Police @metpoliceuk]

The protest has now concluded with a total of 152 people arrested by officers.

The vast majority of arrests - 134 - were for expressing support for a proscribed organisation, under Section 12 of the Terrorism Act 2000. This included two people arrested for attempting to put up a stage at the event.

4 arrests were made on suspicion of encouraging or assisting a crime, under Section 45 of the Serious Crime Act 2007.

A number of officers were assaulted while making arrests, but thankfully none required hospital treatment. Two people were arrested for assaulting emergency workers.

unrelated but I remember watching this as a kid and thinking the way the the guitar arpeggio on Jai Ho interplays with the harmony is really haunting

BBC has released a new campaign 'What has the BBC ever done for me?' It will air during tonight's World Cup final coverage.

what does it say about me that this IG reel of a guy replicating the Michael McDonald vocal harmony stack on “Peg” literally brought tears to my eyes

[possumcore 🇵🇸 @countdookie]

I've been waiting for this since I was 13. Cubist Castle and Black Foliage were essential albums for my musical development and remain tragically overlooked relative to their Elephant 6 peers and neo-psych in general. Devastating that Will and Bill aren't here to see it.

[CONSEQUENCE @consequence]

The Olivia Tremor Control have announced The Same Place, their first new album in nearly three decades, due out October 23rd.

Spanning 27 tracks and roughly 20 years of work, the album also serves as a tribute to late members Bill Doss and Will Hart.

had a guy at the pub corner me and make me watch his AI cat music video for his diss song about a guy who makes Facebook videos where he films crackheads fighting

Man in the asda carpark spritzing his wife with a spray bottle as she rotates in place. What does it mean?

[possumcore 🇵🇸 @countdookie]

hope she suffered 👍

[Owen Jones @owenjonesjourno]

Really shocking.

As someone who has sparred with Ann Widdecombe over the years, that she suffered such a violent end to her life is horrific.

heartwarming: neighbours stop screaming and throwing shit at each other just long enough to watch Netflix original slop ❤️❤️❤️

[possumcore 🇵🇸 @countdookie]

I obviously see the value of dissecting the 'hipster' subculture and it's musical signifiers, I just think it's a shame that many of these bands are only mentioned in articles about an identity thats half pejorative and half post-hoc fantasy invention.

[possumcore 🇵🇸 @countdookie]

Honestly I think it's really boring and annoying that we're not really able to talk about music from this era on its own merits through the lens of genre & scene yet, and can only talk about it in these petty anthropological terms.

[VICE @VICE]

Someone had to do it. Or the squabbling would go on forever.
