very once in a while we encounter a new band that we can’t help but talk about. Form and Shape’s album My Conquest is the Sea of Stars sends listeners on an auditory journey through deep space with ominous beats in all the right places. If you’ve ever imagined what sort of music people might listen to while traveling at light speed on a starship, the answer is Form and Shape.
We’ve been following the musical adventures of Allison “Cossby Sweater” Goertz ever since she first regaled us with her super-catchy D&D anthem Tonight. With songs about everything from dungeon crawling to tragically cancelled Judd Apatow projects, Allison seems to fully understand the stuff we really love. On May 4th Allison’s indiegogo [...]
We’ve been ranting and raving about Cossbysweater for ages now and have some awesome intel to share; Allie Goertz & Megan Barrett are heading into the studio to record their very first album.
Today marks the late Bob Moogs 78th birthday, founder of Moog synths and keyboards, and godfather of all prog-rock keyboardists everywhere. In honor of the late Mr. Moog today’s google doodle is a full-fledged working synth!!

In the months since we first featured “Tonight”, you may have heard Allie’s work several times on our podcast Rated NA.

Super nerd Jason Segal is a massive Muppets fan, and he happens to also like some great music. The folks behind the new Muppet movie were cool enough to give us an embed to stream the entire Muppet album. I should also note that if you’re not a fan of the Muppets you may have sold your soul to some creep in an ally someplace.
What would you do with an entire room full of synthesizers?
