This is a list of all the albums/EPs/demos/singles that I listened to in their entirety during the month of October 2016, along with stuff I read and watched. Notes regarding each follow. Somehow I've lost the page that had the entries for the entire week of 10/5-10/12 so who know what wondrous things are being left out of this posting. The world may never know.
Enjoy!

- I left my backpack at Casa De Boo-lo and havent gone back to get it even though those dudes live like 10 minutes from my apartment
- end of the summer was supposed to play but instead I just read from The Other Wise Man and The Satanic Verses in between bands and somehow still managed to break my (Evan's) guitar...Still the happiest day of the year though, that shit was great
