MJ Lenderman releases his anticipated new album Manning Fireworks this Friday (9/6). Today, he put out its fourth single “Wristwatch,” and it’s my favorite song he’s ever released. Sung from the perspective of an intentionally unlikable male narrator who brags about having a “beach home up in Buffalo and a wristwatch that’s a compass and a cell phone” after being accused of wasting his life away, it finds Lenderman’s mix of humor and poignancy at its most effective, and its melodies haven’t left my brain since the first time I heard the song. It’s a shaggy, rugged, countrified indie rock anthem that would make Lenderman’s heroes in the Drive-By Truckers and Crazy Horse proud, and it’s also just one of the very best songs of the year in any genre. Give the song a listen below.

King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard kicked off the North American leg of their 2024 world tour last month. It includes three-hour marathon sets in some cities, and after a pair of those in NYC, they brought another super-sized set to Chicago’s Huntington Bank Pavilion at Northerly Island on Sunday (9/1). While the setlist, which you can see below, pulled from all over their 26-LP discography, 2017’s Murder of the Universe emerged as a particular focus of the night, with the band playing “Welcome to an Altered Future” for the first time since 2018.

Kalamazoo, MI noise rock/post-hardcore vets God Bullies were initially around between 1986 and 1995, and they released four albums for Amphetamine Reptile and one for Alternative Tentacles, and gigged with the likes of Melvins, Helmet and Cows. After breaking up, vocalist “Father” Mike Hard went on to lead Thrall, Hand Over Head, and other bands, and now he re-activated God Bullies with a new lineup for their first album in 30 years, As Above, So Below. It’s good timing with the new Jesus Lizard album on the way as well, and new single/opening track “I Am Mighty” picks up right where God Bullies left off, bringing that classic AmRep sound right into the 2020s.
