#AlternateFridayMusic Feb 27 2026 This week, we're supposed to #Obey? The Brian Jonestown Massacre - “Resist Much Obey Little” from Don't Get Lost (2017) For years I’d heard #BrianJonestownMassacre here and there, mostly on college radio, and dug what I heard, but somehow an impression never stuck, if I’m being honest, until #AnthonyBourdain put founder/front man/driving force/connective tissue #AntonNewcombe in front of my eyeballs on his food/travelogue show #PartsUnknown. Well thanks, Tony, for helping to correct that oversight. Newcombe excretes music from his pores, and puts out a record whenever he stops to collect this vital bodily fluid. #Shoegaze, #GarageRock, #PychedelicRock, jangly #PowerPop - Newcombe's oeuvre checks a lot of boxes, feeling a bit how I imagine it might be to walk through a car wash: Startling, seems fun at the start! Abrasive at times, chaotic but with a rhythm and a direction, keeps you moving, leaves you a little confused but cleansed. As for this track - could there be a more appropriate time? But be careful out there, friends. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eiN0xpwEIoE

Verse of the Day: Obey - 1 Samuel 15:22 “Does the Lord delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as much as in obeying the Lord? To obey is better than sacrifice, and to heed is better than the fat of rams." #obey
