MUSIC NOTES
- New releases by Maricon, Animals As Leaders, Joyce Manor, Ash Borer, Alcest, Bruise, P.E.A.R.L., Phoebe, Volahn, The Body, Kharma are all on point
 - R.I.P. Leonard Cohen, "the songwriter's songwriter"
- If I've said it once I've said it a million times: Christine McVie is the true magic behind Fleetwood Mac
- Favorite "new finds" of the month: STAB, Grand Tapestry, inc., Bruise, Seance, P.E.A.R.L., Phoebe, Intervals, Volahn, Kharma, Kid Armor
- That Grand Tapestry album is one of the best hip hop albums ever made
- Crisis Arm was so fucking good
- "Children, they walk away...I think about it every day."
- Tenacious D is basically just Blues Traveler with a bunch of jokes and less harmonica
- Worst of the month: Bishop Briggs
