Today is St. Patrick’s Day. I don’t really care about patron saints for the most part, let alone a patron saint associated with alcoholic beverages (lol, I don’t drink, I’m straight edge). But we share the same first name, so I have a special appreciation for St. Paddy. Also, St. Patrick is the title ofContinueContinue reading “Happy St. Patrick’s (Me) Day!”

Music Mondays: The Truth Behind Baby Sharks
“Baby Shark” is one of those songs that need no introduction because you literally hear it everywhere, often against your will. It’s annoyingly catchy, a typical characteristic of novelty pop songs intended for tiny human spawn. I’m not hear to discuss some conspiracy about how the song has some subliminal message that tells kids toContinueContinue reading “Music Mondays: The Truth Behind Baby Sharks”
Music Mondays: New Song From The Maine

Music Mondays: Know Your Enemy by Green Day
Today, February 24th, is the the 33rd anniversary of the EDSA People Power Revolution, the bloodless, non-violent revolution that helped topple down the regime of Ferdinand Marcos in 1986. The event brought back democracy into the Philippines after the corrupt dictator took sole control in 1972 upon declaring Martial Law. In line with this, thisContinueContinue reading “Music Mondays: Know Your Enemy by Green Day”
Happy birthday, Kurt Cobain!
Kurt Cobain was one of the most influential people in the 90’s, and he was incredibly reluctant about this. This reluctance to fame was probably contributed to him taking his own life in 1994, but his relevance and contributions to music and culture cannot be dismissed. So many things have been said about Kurt Cobain,ContinueContinue reading “Happy birthday, Kurt Cobain!”
Music Mondays: “Bahala Na” by Midnight Meetings
This week’s Music Monday features the song “Bahala Na” by Midnight Meetings. The band is fronted by Filipino gamer and events host Ashley Gosiengfiao. I’m a big fan of Ashley and when I discovered she’s a singer aside from a nerdy gamer (she covered one of my favorite Sleeping With Sirens song once, “If I’mContinueContinue reading “Music Mondays: “Bahala Na” by Midnight Meetings”
Kennan’s Annual Valentine’s Day Playlist
Let’s get this yearly tradition over with. Hahaha
Happy Valentine’s Day! Go tell someone you like them, but also, don’t let this heavily exploited pseudo-holiday convince you that love is meant to be celebrated on one specific day of the year only. Please love — in all its forms — 365.25 days a year!
Music Mondays: She’s American – The 1975
This is random, but I couldn’t stop listening to “She’s American” by the 1975, off their second album I like it when you sleep for you are so beautiful yet so unaware of it (2016). I made a video for my bestfriend’s birthday, and used a part of that song for the background, so that definitely helpedContinueContinue reading “Music Mondays: She’s American – The 1975”
Music Mondays: amo by Bring Me The Horizon
British metal band Bring Me The Horizon recently released a new album called amo, and the reactions are fairly mixed, mainly due to the band’s older fans not liking the fact that this album is their most un-metal release to date. amo is ~heavily~ influenced by electronic music (hope you saw what I did there,ContinueContinue reading “Music Mondays: amo by Bring Me The Horizon”
Music Mondays
I’m pretty sure I posted something on here a long time ago saying I would regularly post music-related things. That has not been accomplished, except back on Valentine’s Day last year when I published my annual Pop-Punk Love Songs playlist. In line with Silence Is The Enemy’s 2019 soft reboot, where I pledged to publishContinueContinue reading “Music Mondays”
