Buckle your nuts and knuckle your butts, ’cause it’s Bandcamp Friday.<\/p>\n

Y’all, I was going to cook up a\u00a0serious\u00a0<\/em>post about\u00a0Jimmie’s Chicken Shack\u00a0<\/strong>after\u00a0Hans\u00a0<\/strong>found it “astounding” that I, a person who was 10 years old in 1997, owned JCS’s hit album\u00a0Pushing the Salmanilla Envelope<\/em>. It sold 200,000 copies, Hans! Lots of people owned it! I listened to the album\u00a0multiple\u00a0<\/em>times yesterday, and I swear I will use my ill-gotten Flush It Friday platform next week to explain to you why it might actually be kinda dope, but today is a special day. Maybe not as special as Leap Day! But special nonetheless, because today is Bandcamp Friday, where all fees are waived and all proceeds go directly to the label and\/or artists. So, instead of talking\u00a0at length\u00a0<\/em>about a probably bad but definitely\u00a0interesting\u00a0<\/em>album from 27 years ago, I figured I would direct your attention to some sexy deals to spend your money in rad ways.<\/p>\n

Over at our beloved Fiadh Productions<\/a>, all cassettes are $6.66. At random, I would suggest the recently released\u00a0Line of Fight\u00a0<\/em>from noise trio\u00a0Deep Fade<\/strong>. Rooted in field recordings of construction and demolition sites in Detroit,\u00a0Line of Fight\u00a0<\/em>is a haunting, spectral, and hellish documentation of the hollowing out of one America’s great cities through racist neoliberal policies that deunionized and left blighted so many lives and communities.<\/p>\n
