The hallucinations have started. The wine corks are talking…..

Round 4: BOGO. BOTTLES!!!

Round 3: our local vineyard has excellent wine and a sense of humor.

Round 2: Bacardi Punch

Our marriage is 21 years old today so we’re taking it out and getting it drunk. Round 1: Mimosa flight.

🎧 Paper Machetes, "Balancing Act" EP. Thanks to @westendculturalcentre for posting about the amazing Paper Machetes. Cinematic pop songs that are sparse when they need to be. Christy Toronno has a deep and slightly smoky delivery that's just "rural" enough. Good stuff. Digging it. #Cosomusic #MPNP

There is no end to their delusion, their madness, or their dishonesty. She lost by 21 points, and came in last in a 3 person race.

🎧 Various Artists, “Through the Soil II”. Originally a benefit for The Trevor Project, all proceeds from this 37 song comp will now be sent to the National Network of Abortion Funds. The ask is $5 and there are enough good songs on here to justify way more than that. Faye Webster, Julien Baker, Swim Camp, Hiding Places and so many more have donated new tracks. You are bound to hear something you like. Go get your charity on and your earbuds in.

🎧 Soccer Mommy, "Sometimes, Forever". Posted without editorial. Just check it out. You'll love it. Maybe the record of summer. #Cosomusic #MPNP

🎧 Porcupine Tree, “Closure Continuation”. The standard bearers of alt-prog return for one last blast of killer riffs and airy ruminations. Reduced to a trio, the bass and drums are still laying down some nasty shit, and when the guitar solos hit, they soar. Steven Wilson’s forays into poppier territory in his solo work are nowhere to be found. This is classic PT, melding all of their best turns into a grand 47 minute finale. It’s a master class. #cosomusic #MPNP

🎧 Angel Olsen, "Big Time". Nothing against country, but anytime an indie artist reaches for the lap steel I get apprehensive. So I needed a little convincing, and my wife's all day binge did the trick. Yes, Olsen has countrified, but not southern fried, this record. Most of it falls into the grey area anyway, and the songs/lyrics are so good I stopped caring about 10 minutes into it. A sparser and simpler record for a more complicated time. "Go Home" is an epic. #Cosomusic #MPNP

And sometimes nature is cruel reminder. Deer skeleton.

When society lets you down….go back to nature. #kayaking #nature

From a good (non-CoSo) friend. Lets look in the mirror, indeed, #roevwade #scotus #politics

🎧 Bartees Strange, "Farm to Table". TFW a great artists new album exceeds expectations. 'Nuff said. #Cosomusic #MPNP
