I’m not all in on Billy Strings, but do like him, and am happy he’s successfully avoided the dreaded jamband pigeonholing enough to get 1) a positive review 2) in Pitchfork 3) from the great @sterlewine.bsky.social

Over at Pitchfork, I review Highway Prayers, the expansive new album from Billy Strings. pitchfork.com/reviews/albu...

Duh, “Vroom Vroom” x “VROOOM VROOOM” is the obvious charli x crimson pairing

I genuinely enjoy seeing the guy who literally wrote the book on prog rock becoming the biggest charli xcx stan on this site, and it’s all making me think my idea for a 360 x 21st Century Schizoid Man mashup might actually have an audience.

Just want to note that methodologies like this have been around well before 2022, and tend to do very well if used correctly. It’s often the pollsters that cling to legacy methodologies that have the eyebrow-raisingest crosstabs.

Am I the only one really annoyed that there’s a space between “jam” and “band”?

I would love to see this line in an ad.
