Oh that's Magdalena Bay with a certified SMASH HIT single.... ❤️

The latest single "Attempt A Crash Landing - Theme" is out now <3

Good morning, BJSC nation... Been a minute, hasn't it? So much so I missed a whole turn of the calendar! How's 2026 been going for you so far then? Just like any other year? I hope not, I hope it's at least been a memorable or unique one in some fashion, and that you've been able to keep on keepin' on, in spite of the fact everything's going to shit and everyone sucks (except me). I've personally come to realise just how vital a presence I am to this contest....Trifoski is the lifeblood of BJSC, and that's why we can never afford to call it quits. I have responsibilities here, being the only remaining sane person in existence, and the only one who sees through this world's bullshit. If I had a third eye, it would be open right now. But that's enough time-wasting for now, let's pass the mic on to HYP3R to cover this month's entry shall we? EH ERRR....! not rite now bucko ⚆ _ ⚆ im busy buyin shit Wha........what are you buying? get ur nosy-nose outta my shoppin cart gorrDAMNN- 😭 im workin on a unified theory,,,and lemme tell ya......u AINT SO slick buddy-!! ಠ ಠ once i got all my lil duckies in a row, i can finally unravel the MYST3RY of ur TANGLED WEB 4 all 2 sea!!!! 🕷️ Alright.....? I'll just do it myself then. It's tough being the only sane person left sometimes....... ◭ 182 ◮ ⋗ LIP CRITIC ⋖ ⫸ LEGS IN A SNARE ⫷ Hailing from NYC, Lip Critic are following up the wonderful "Hex Dealer" with a new album this year, and said LP's lead single is in this very contest. The band describe Legs In A Snare as a "love song twisted into a horror story", Bret Kaser's distinct vocal performance guiding us through a track that feels strangely groovy, yet also discomforting at points, and even visceral when things eventually break down. If you're not on the Lip Critic wagon yet, I hope this tune will be enough to get you on board

NYC electronic-punk band Lip Critic are back at it with their new LP "Theft World", releasing on May 1st. The backstory? You might wanna sit down for this one- While Lip Critic were touring "Hex Dealer", frontman Bret Kaser discovered his identity had been stolen and used to make hundreds of purchases, including the band's entire discography on Bandcamp. They tracked down the scammer, encountering a young man in a Five Nights At Freddy's hoodie, who confessed and explained his belief that the group's music contained hidden codes for an elaborate scavenger hunt. They recorded him at a 24-hour halal spot where he enthusiastically described his imagined lore - inspiring the band to scrap the material they'd already recorded and instead create an album incorporating the more vivid universe the fan had painted for them Lead single "Legs In A Snare" dropped a few days ago, carrying on the hot streak from their banger 2024 record - give 'em a peep! TRACKLIST: 01 "Two Lucks" 02 "Jackpot" 03 "Debt Forest" 04 "Talon 05 "Charity Dinner" 06 "Drumming With Izzy" 07 "My Blush (Strength Of The Critic)" 08 "Shoplifting" 09 "Legs In A Snare" 10 "My Wife And The Goblin" 11 "Yard Sale (230 Take)" 12 "200 Bottles Of Eviction"
