Speaking of Mark Lanegan, diving back into the wonder that is Earth's catalogue I discovered this collab that I'd somehow missed.

Like many budding music geeks on the younger end of the millennial cohort, I discovered Mark Lanegan through his work with Queens of the Stone Age.

To my great shame, I've now discovered I slept on his previous work with Screaming Trees for far too long.

This is a hell of an album:

Screaming Trees -- Uncle Anesthesia (1991)

Check out this incredible fool:

"It’s not really enjoyable to make music now […] It takes a lot of time, it takes a lot of practice, you need to get really good [...] I think the majority of people don’t enjoy the majority of the time they spend making music."

There's a lot of cool stuff being done with machine learning in the music tech space, but genAI certainly ain't it. Not that this turdbro would be able to tell.

Today's highlight is the discovery of this tragically amazing band - Sungrazer - that dropped two sublime albums in the early 2010s before sadly disappearing after their guitarist/vocalist's death. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fdevUp2co0Y

This morning (French time), Charlie Dalin won the 2024 Vendée Globe in just over 64 days and 19 hours, taking nearly 10 days (!) off the previous record.

The Vendée Globe is the world's most extreme offshore sailing race: around the world single-handed on a 60-foot IMOCA-class monohull, non-stop with no assistance.

Following the Vendée every 4 years through the skippers' onboard videos is one of my favourite things in this rapidly enshittifying world.
