Having just rushed out the surprise “DID SANTA COME” single by Frog, I wanted to share a little more seasonal activity.
Firstly, it was a pretty nice surprise to hear Nosferatu D2’s “It’s Christmas Time (For God’s Sake)“ on BBC 6 Music in 2024, so I wanted to send a huge thanks to Alexander Carson for the Freak Zone spin this week (listen again here). Kind of unexpectedly the song also got recent spins from WRCT, Radio Boise, BFF.FM, WKCR, KDVS, Radio Broskant, and Amazing Radio. Pretty neat for a DIY release from 2009.
If you’re a fan of Nosferatu D2, you can get some free Bandcamp downloads via GetMusic (along with other other Ben and Adam Parker projects like Tempertwig, Superman Revenge Squad, and My Best Unbeaten Brother).
In other news, CIAO MALZ (it’s her birthday today! Buy her new EP for $1!) put together a great musical Christmas essay which is up now on For The Rabbits:
Frog also did a little Christmas Q&A for Atwood Magazine’s Mistletones feature:
The “Christmas Eve in Miller’s Point” film directed by Tyler Taormina (aka Audio Antihero alumni Cloud) was named the #2 movie of 2024 by Richard Brody for The New Yorker and it’s available now to stream too. I really recommend it.
I’d also like to dust off this gloomy guest feature I did for Various Small Flames last year:
Lastly, I’ve made a wee Christmas playlist of songs by Audio Antihero artists and alumni.
