Days on this theme [ 21 DAYS ]
Saturday Oct 03 · 2026 [ 8 TRACKS ] · 00:04 – 01:18 Saturday does not begin until four minutes past midnight, and the first thing it plays is Your Ghost Again. Wednesday Sep 30 · 2026 [ 47 TRACKS ] · 10:03 – 23:18 The morning is the most political music on the record, and every song in it has an address. Sunday Sep 27 · 2026 [ 11 TRACKS ] · 23:53 – 01:28 He was not done with Porcupine Tree. Saturday Sep 26 · 2026 [ 29 TRACKS ] · 12:26 – 01:07 Godflesh has been shadowing the record all month, a single track at a time, turning up on day after day without ever being the point. Monday Sep 21 · 2026 [ 23 TRACKS ] · 11:46 – 22:53 The pivot the fusion fragment hinted at becomes the whole of Monday: a day given to prog in both its ages. Saturday Sep 12 · 2026 [ 37 TRACKS ] · 10:51 – 01:17 The second day running that belongs to one band taken whole. Thursday Sep 10 · 2026 [ 23 TRACKS ] · 17:58 – 23:13 A Thursday that belongs, at both ends, to the same two men. Wednesday Sep 09 · 2026 [ 13 TRACKS ] · 21:48 – 23:19 A short Wednesday evening given almost entirely to one record. Monday Sep 07 · 2026 [ 4 TRACKS ] · 13:31 – 13:41 Ten minutes on a Monday afternoon and then nothing more. Thursday Sep 03 · 2026 [ 31 TRACKS ] · 09:35 – 00:32 The last thing the man plays, at half past midnight, is Alice In Chains' Nutshell, and it lands like a light left on. Friday Aug 28 · 2026 [ 14 TRACKS ] · 12:22 – 02:17 Friday is two melancholy immersions and an angry footnote. Wednesday Aug 26 · 2026 [ 15 TRACKS ] · 01:42 – 03:10 Wednesday happens entirely in the small hours, a sleepless run from a quarter to two in the morning until past three. Tuesday Aug 11 · 2026 [ 15 TRACKS ] · 21:56 – 23:04 Tuesday is a single short evening, and it starts by rewinding: the same At the Drive-In track that closed last night, Hostage Stamps, played again as if the night had simply resumed. Monday Aug 10 · 2026 [ 20 TRACKS ] · 14:21 – 23:53 Monday picks up exactly where yesterday left off. Friday Jul 31 · 2026 [ 111 TRACKS ] · 11:25 – 01:06 The record has been a metal record for a month; today it defects to punk, and to almost nothing else. Wednesday Jul 29 · 2026 [ 35 TRACKS ] · 19:02 – 01:54 An evening that walks American punk from its rawest beginnings out to the far edge where it stops sounding like punk at all. Monday Jul 27 · 2026 [ 35 TRACKS ] · 11:31 – 23:50 Most of a Monday afternoon belongs to Death, the band, and to Chuck Schuldiner's slow transformation of a gore genre into a thinking one. Sunday Jul 26 · 2026 [ 5 TRACKS ] · 22:54 – 23:36 Two days of ninety-nine tracks each, and then this: five songs, one record, forty minutes, all of it frozen. Saturday Jul 25 · 2026 [ 99 TRACKS ] · 11:07 – 01:28 A Saturday that travels a long way, from the barricades to the stars. Monday Jul 20 · 2026 [ 14 TRACKS ] · 21:12 – 21:59 After a weekend excavating black metal down to its Swedish roots, this lands like a bucket of cold water: forty-seven minutes, fourteen songs, almost none of them past three minutes. Sunday Jul 05 · 2026 [ 50 TRACKS ] · 15:05 – 23:12 A Sunday built as a controlled descent, from the cool detachment of post-punk down into the most extreme and occult metal the catalogue holds.
