Gorillaz' The Fall is a full-length album recorded in a month, on an iPad, during the band's Escape To Plastic Beach Tour. If that sounds like a good 45 minutes to you, you might also dig this post. If you're unfamiliar with the Gorillaz, I'd recommend you lay down in the shade somewhere and listen to Plastic Beach instead. That's a good, um, seasonally appropriate activity.

2022 was a good year for music dude. I mean, I think it was... it doesn't seem like people are really upset at least. Maybe at Drake actually I dunno. 21 Savage helped. This year I compulsively catalogued every album I listened to and enjoyed, and I ended up with so much stuff I wanted to talk about that I decided to just dump it all out and see what stuck. Intro-ing this post at the beginning of the blogging process, I saw it as sort of lower effort, less creative, auto-generated year-end content, and I wrote a very self deprecating paragraph to match. But you know what, I think a lot of it stuck, not sucked! This time around we do some crate digging, drift down the chill jazz lazy river, get into some Toro y Moi lore... I daresay this post earned its spot in the Creative category. And if you don't have the stamina to read everything (it took me more than a month to write it all), there's always the Henry-appointed album vibe to skim, and a good old top ten list at the very end, for tradition's sake. Thanks for taking this journey through 100+ albums (or death by a hundred cuts) with me, and I hope you find something new to listen to!
Hello everyone. Mom, dad, grandparents, Google SEO bot, and unknown person that statistically won't click "Read more" after getting here from a sticker– Thank you all so much for gathering here, once again, to celebrate my greeting card holiday in the making. I wonder if giving people Moonrabbit Day cards this year will guilt them into buying me one next year (which I can charge them for as the sole distributor of Moonrabbit Day cards)? It’s worth a shot. Getting them all done by the end of the day is going to be rough though since I waited to start writing this until it was dark out. I can already feel my suppressed Valentine’s Day Eve card making trauma resurfacing. Is that something everyone did as a little kid? Or was it only at my elementary school? I guess if you’re taking the time to read this it’s okay if you don’t get me anything next year. Just buy a shirt already so I don’t have to register Moonrabbit Industries as a non-profit.
