Provoker

Californian post-punk band that I have been listening to constantly these last few months. They got their start as a solo project scoring soundtracks for fake horror movies and it eventually evolved into its current form. Personal favorite songs by them: Valley Ghoul It’s in my head Blue Sheen

90s Scottish band: Lung leg

recently watched ‘since yesterday: the untold story of Scottish girl bands’ on bbc iplayer and definitely found some cool bands i’d never heard of including lung leg! an indie rock/pop-punk girl band from the 90s influenced by post punk and riot grrrl and i feel so cool listening to them. id recommend the song maid to minx as an introduction then if you like listen to the rest of the album also titled maid to minx. also love the album cover!!

The Sound

Extremely underrated British post-punk band. The frontman had schizophrenia and killed himself by jumping in front of a train. Choice cuts are “Heartland” and “Missiles,” but their best song is “I Can’t Escape Myself.” Tortured, catchy, and exploding with angst.

Electrique boutique - 80s minimal synth, coldwave, and diy electronic music

I produce and host a radio show called Electrique Boutique, which plays minimal synth, cold wave, dark wave, post punk, diy/private press electronic music, and anything else that fits the vibe. If you’re into Kraftwerk, Closer by Joy Divison, Cold Cave, Molchat Doma, Black Marble… your stripped down, lo-fi electronic music, then maybe give it a listen! It airs every other Friday 6-8 PM PST on 104.9 KHUH Hollow Earth Radio in Seattle, but all of my episodes are archived on my website (in the link).

Indigo bunting + ivory-billed woodpecker

My right arm currently has ten bird tats on it. It’s a toss up between these two: - The indigo bunting, which is dedicated to a friend of mine who helped me through a really bad time in my life. We bonded over birdwatching when we first met, and the indigo bunting is her favorite bird. - The ivory-billed woodpecker, simply because it’s my favorite bird. Unfortunately extinct, though every few years a possible sighting is reported in the southern US. Its nickname is The Lord God Bird, because that’s what a birdwatcher would shout if they ever saw one.

The venture bros.

At its best, it rivals the golden years of The Simpsons in my book, and that’s about the highest praise I can give a show. So so funny and creative, relentlessly bleak, and a relatable love of 80s alternative culture.
