Hey y’all. First and foremost, I hope everyone is staying healthy and staying home as much as possible. This is some crazy, scary shit, and I hope that if you’re reading this, you and the ones you love are able to look back on this someday soon from a place of relative safety and say “Wow, that was some crazy, scary shit.” (My mom reads this blog, and we typically check in about whether it was really necessary to curse in my writing when I do, and I think even she’d agree that now’s the time to let it fly.)

Like many folks are, I’m trying to keep my family safe while thinking about ways we can all support each other over the weeks and months ahead. I plan to pass along the ideas and opportunities I come across, as long as I’m able, and I thought I’d start with the rarities album Saw Black released yesterday. Bandcamp is a great way to support the artists you love — via merch, music, whatever. I know I’ve leaned toward using the site mostly for vinyl buying and streaming in the past, but now is a great time to throw in some bones for those sweet, sweet mp3s.

Don’t sleep on this particular set — Saw indicated that it’d be available for only a couple of days.
