No matter what kind of Dad you have, chances are, he’s got his taste in music…and he just won’t shut up about it. So, this Father’s Day, we’re giving him a break from sharing all that knowledge that, frankly, nobody asked about. I mean, how many times can you be made aware of the “slow […]
Stef Chura – Midnight [Saddle Creek] A timeless rocker from Stef Chura. Chura’s voice hits like a truck. It’s pushed and strained to that sweet spot right before it becomes contrived. She has a natural affect that a lot of singers might try to fake, with little to no success. The melodies ramble almost in […]
As we creep ever so slowly into what is sure to be a long, hot Summer (we will pay for our extended Spring), it’s important to remind ourselves that our interest in vinyl records doesn’t come without hazards. If you’re just now exploring the wonderful world of vinyl, you should know that it has a […]
Big Thief – U.F.O.F [4AD] In our eyes, Big Thief can do no wrong. When songs originate from such a deep place singer/songwriter Adrienne Lenker seems to have sole access to, any and all directions will be met with admiration and praise. U.F.O.F. puts aside a lot of the heavier “rock” moments that are […]

Thank You! Record Store Day was started as a way to draw attention to all the great little record stores around the world. This was at a time when the popular notion was that record stores would soon be a thing of the past. We knew this was all hokum! Stinkweeds has always had a […]

Like so much rag weed pollen in the air, spring has inundated us with too much great music! But it ain’t nothing to sneeze at! (This is the kind of writing you get when the head writer of your blog is having an allergy attack, but needs to make that deadline. Deal with it!) I’m […]
If Record Store Day seems like it’s sneaking up on you a little earlier than it has in the past, it’s because IT IS! This year, RSD has been moved up from the third Saturday in April to the Second Saturday, falling on the 13th! We’ll be opening up shop at 9am that day, and […]
