Hey Matt thank you so much for this newsletter and this post especially because I had never heard of fight dice. Post punk is my genre and while I like metal, a great post punk album with a gaming theme is so rare. Tpk is an awesome album I never would have found without you. I also love how open and positive you are about music. So thank you
Thanks for the comment, Bob. Music has enhanced my life so much, and it makes my day whenever I can turn someone onto a new favorite. I appreciate you reading the newsletter!
I was buddies with Mach Tiver -- they used to play basements and DIY spaces in Pittsburgh fairly often. Haven't thought of them in forever, though. It took seeing the members names to trigger the memories of seeing the band...
Sadly, Shannon passed away a few years ago. Never really kept up with them much over time, but I did see them/hung out with them a few times in this era. Probably played a show or two with them at some point, too...

That's amazing! There have been so many bands that are under-recognized. I would never have heard of them if it weren't for that Bluesky thread.

Aw geez, I'm sorry to hear that.
