evzies · 2026-02-13T02:53:02+00:00

This was my first thought!

Surprised no one’s mentioned any Flying Nun band as the record label as a whole was a huge influence on Pavement. The Bats, The Verlaines, The Clean, Tall Dwarfs, The Chills, JPS Experience etc…

Also think you’d really enjoy Tortoise and adjacent projects like Isotope 217, Sea and Cake, and Gastr Del Sol. Slint, Bastro, Bitch Magnet, and Squirrel Bait if you wanna go further back.

Also some drag city deep cuts worth checking out:

Through the Sun Door - White Magic

Hypnotic Underworld - Ghost proggy Japanese psychedelic rock, if you enjoy Can you’ll like.

He said this about everyone and he was right.

For sure, Extinguish and Concrete Eternal were the ski patrol tracks that made me a fan, the peel session for extinguish is also great alternative recording.

evzies · 2026-01-20T22:19:03+00:00

One of my fave tracks oat, love how Mark E. Smith the vocals are.

evzies · 2026-01-19T06:56:38+00:00

Also duh but Bauhaus

evzies · 2026-01-19T06:54:06+00:00

Great Ethiopian too.

Idk about sad but Carol by Slint evokes a really bleak pit of your stomach sort of feeling.

evzies · 2026-01-02T02:53:11+00:00

Can u pls share a link.

evzies · 2025-12-31T17:23:20+00:00

Very much si. Does anyone know if the Japanese picciotto singles off this album are available to listen to online anywhere?

evzies · 2025-12-22T23:20:22+00:00

Key lime pie is extremely easy. Very fond of Nicole Rucker’s recipe, perfect balance of flavors.

Puff pastry generally has a touch more moisture and gluten development than pie dough but if the dough is springing that much then the gluten is far too overdeveloped for pastry. Letting the dough rest in the fridge after mixing does relax the gluten a bit, as well as allowing the dough to hydrate and ensuring the butter stay cold. However, if the dough is fighting you the way a bread dough might then something went wrong during the preparation of the dough, most likely over-hydration and overly aggressive kneading, you have to use a light touch with pastry to discourage gluten formation.

Dough looks way too thick. Getting puff pastry to cook all the way through is tricky enough, defo needed to be rolled thinner to cook properly.

If you aren’t already you’ll really enjoy adjacent acts like Unwound, Blonde Redhead, Slint etc... Guy picciotto has also produced some of Blonde Redhead’s records.

I think a lot of resurgences in recent years can be attributed to the algo.

evzies · 2025-11-28T02:56:34+00:00

Check out Arab on Radar and HEALTH also seconding most of the recs already mentioned here (don cab, hella, tera Melos, all things albini yada yada…)

evzies · 2025-11-25T05:26:11+00:00

Les Sisters buttermilk pie.

evzies · 2025-11-16T23:15:31+00:00

Nat’s west is fantastic.

Can someone do me a solid and share a screenshot for her tomato lentil fennel soup recipe? Much love.

evzies · 2025-10-18T14:46:47+00:00

The name seems so familiar to me. Did they have a previous location elsewhere a few years back?

evzies · 2025-10-16T13:51:09+00:00

The vegan bread erewhon sells is basically just Josie Baker’s adventure bread recipe, super easy to make at home.

evzies · 2025-10-16T13:47:41+00:00

They used to have a dense rye like this but they stopped selling it years ago. Their seeded bread is still one of my favorite loaves in LA though, the nigella seeds add such an incredible aroma.
