"We're half awake in a fake empire"
The National.
Love that 4 versus 3 on the piano.
Despite this album cover, the band Semantics does not sound like a bad metal band or like Meat Loaf. I'd call them much closer to The Goo Goo Dolls.
It's a good album.

As promised, here is the blog version of Radio Free California Episode 2447. Has the same Spotify playlist, but also notes about my little private radio station and what we're playing this week. No cheap shots. I'm not in the mood anymore.
With the exception of one show, we play nothing but new music at Radio Free California, often from artists you've never heard of but certainly deserve more attention.

And here it is my friends, Radio Free California Episode 2447! New music this week from Linkini Park, Greet Death, The Youniverse, Semantica, Blackberry Smoke, Silverlites, Negative, Hana Lili, The Sixsters, Painted Vein, King Stingray, Du Blonde and much more. Enjoy!
As per usual, my blog version will be up later today.
I was never really a fan of Linkin Park in their original heydey, when Chester was alive. I didn't find them offensive or anything, it just wasn't for me. Chester's death was a gut punch though.
But their new album, with their new singer, is pretty damned good. I especially like the song "Two Faced", which is the current single, but the whole album is worth the time.
I like this new incarnation of Linkin Park better than the old one.
Electronic
"Getting Away With It"
(1990)
Um wow......
Lots of reissues and crap out this week but in the far corner is St. Vincent - releasing her album All Born Screaming, which came out a few weeks back, but in Spanish.
"Todos Nacen Sritando"
I will never understand why The Connells never broke huge.
'74-'75
Silverlites, "Don't Go, Don't Stay"
Joseph Arthur ("Honey and the Moon")
Peter Buck (R.E.M.)
Barrett Martin (Screaming Trees)
Rich Robinson (Black Crowes)
Sounds as good as you think it would.
A bit late but here it is, Radio Free California Episode 2446, to take away your sorrows for a little while. Trying to stay upbeat here with new music.
New this week from RHEA, Nerina Pallot, Greta Stanley, The Pineapple Thief, Peter Murthy and Boy George, Hayley Mary, Yannis & the Yaw, Our Girl, Mixed Signals and much more. Enjoy!
My new project. Yes, it's odd for me. A sampling of the music can be heard on the site.
As promised, here is the link to my blog version of Radio Free California Episode 2445. Radio Station programming notes for the week are there, but no ranting or cheap shots. I figure we've all got enough on our plates today.

Dirty Loops, covering Stevie Wonder's "Living for the City"
Stay through the credits. Trust me.
Once again, Randy Rainbow knocks it out of the park. Be sure to note the song within a song towards the end.
"Magadu" - a Randy Rainbow parody set the the tune of "Xanadu" by Olivia Newton-John and ELO, with another song buried inside. You'll notice it - especially if you're about my age. 😂
As usual, here is the blog version of Radio Free California Episode 2444, which includes the same playlist but also programming notes about various shows on my internet radio station, my own opinions in very unclean language (TDLR: Nazi = bad), cheap shots at the day's news and more. Enjoy!

And here it is my friends, Radio Free California Episode 2444! New music from The Effigies (Hat tip to Skafish who is also on this playlist), Von Hertzen Brothers, Glay, Flat Party, Palomino Blood, 2nd Grade, Queen of Jeans, BBBL, Ukraine's The Sixters, Linkin Park and much more. Enjoy!
"I Love America Better than You"
Aaron Lee Tasjan.
Trust me - he'd fit in here.
Are the Black Keys even capable of NOT recording the drums so loud that they clip?
They're a good band when they want to be, and the new single has Alice Cooper so you'd think we'd have something solid but those fucking drums.
I don't like it, but I recognize that I'm in the minority. So here you go: The Black Keys with Alice Cooper with "Stay In Your Grave"
