The Weekly
[ 11 FILED ]
Week of Sep 14
Sep 14 – Sep 20 · 2026
Two hundred and fifty-five tracks across seven full days, and the number that matters is the artist count: a hundred and thirty of them, against last week's thirty-nine.
→
Week of Sep 07
Sep 07 – Sep 13 · 2026
One hundred and eighty-three tracks and only thirty-nine artists, and the gap between those two numbers is the whole week.

Week of Aug 31
Aug 31 – Sep 06 · 2026
Two hundred and eighty-six tracks across five heard days, bracketed at both ends by silence, and the week has one habit it cannot put down: the man does not play the records he loves, he consumes them whole and then again.
→
Week of Aug 24
Aug 24 – Aug 30 · 2026
Seventy-one tracks across five thin days and two silences, the quietest week the record has held: after a month of drowning in single albums, the man surfaces into something scattered and low, brief nocturnal dips into death metal and doom and cosmic black, nothing sustained and nothing bright.

Week of Aug 17
Aug 17 – Aug 23 · 2026
Two hundred and four tracks and just thirty-three artists, the fewest the record has ever stretched so far: a week of pure immersion, each day drowned in a single band, Opeth then Paradise Lost then Dissection then Blood Incantation, an inward and melancholy run that does not taper so much as stop, the whole weekend filed dark.

Week of Aug 10
Aug 10 – Aug 16 · 2026
One hundred and sixty-seven tracks across six days and a silence, and no week has gone deeper into death metal: a run of immersions, each day burrowing into one band or one narrow scene, carrying the record from the cosmos and the mosh pit down into the genre's brutal, occult heart and back up into Opeth's melancholy.

Week of Aug 03
Aug 03 – Aug 09 · 2026
Two hundred and twenty-three tracks across six days and one silence, and the week drifts steadily off the ground: it opens on the heaviest, angriest music the record has logged and ends among ancient astronauts and vintage space rock, the cosmos surfacing again and again as its quiet obsession.
→
Week of Jul 27
Jul 27 – Aug 02 · 2026
Four hundred tracks across seven days, and nearly all of them pointed backward.
→
Week of Jul 20
Jul 20 – Jul 26 · 2026
The record's biggest and most manic week: 273 tracks, 102 artists, swinging from a forty-seven-minute hardcore blast to two back-to-back marathons of ninety-nine before collapsing, on Sunday, into five frozen songs.
→
Week of Jul 13
Jul 13 – Jul 19 · 2026
Seven days, 139 tracks, 60 artists, and a single direction: down.
→
Week of Jul 06
Jul 06 – Jul 12 · 2026
The record's first full week reads as one long argument about heaviness: where it comes from, what it is for, and how many forms it can take before it runs out.
