ALL HAIL THE SUN!

This past weekend brought our annual Summer Solstice celebration and a glorious three-day weekend. We had the full-on parade Saturday, Reggae Sunday (hosted by the DJ before my show), and World Cup excitement on top of it all. The fun just keeps stacking, so naturally we went a little wild on New Noize to commemorate the moment.

This past Sunday's session was all over the map. We had a few longer tracks, some extremely niche selections, plenty of new music, and generally got a little weird with it.

FOODMAN is back with "Hard Reclining." FINALLY, music that speaks directly to me.

Now, FOODMAN is not easy listening. But if you're a fan of experimental music, FOODMAN has you covered. It's chaotic, fascinating, and unlike pretty much anything else out there. It's also your New Noize Song of the Week.

That brings us to the Album of the Week, which lives in a similar universe as FOODMAN while ultimately being something completely different. Alexander Noice's "Perpetually and Forever" jumps frenetically between contrasting themes and ideas. The best way I can describe it is like gearing up for a night at the local fair: riding the Ferris wheel, eating way too much funnel cake, running through the funhouse, and buying a Zippo from a carny.

Using familiar sounds and rhythms layered on top of each other, "Perpetually and Forever" almost hypnotizes the listener. It's strange, adventurous, and honestly just a lot of fun. Give it a listen.

Not New Noize-related, but still cool as hell, was the return of House of the Dragon. This season is already ramping up, and people are hoping their favorite character doesn't die.

HOW WRONG YOU ARE!!!!

I haven't even started talking about the upcoming anime season, but I can already tell it's going to be a heroic time.

Until next Sunday
