Thunder Pie | The Three in the Photo

6 days ago | tinnitist.com | Serge Bielanko

“A picture is a secret about a secret, the more it tells you the less you know.”— Diane ArbusWe did a tour. It was long ago now, before I had three kids. I had two then. And in the picture I have from the day we were leaving, they are in my arms, sagging in my grasp. It is a photo I hadn’t seen in such a while that I had forgotten it existed. With photographs you either are looking at them or you aren’t. And if you aren’t, then the memory is probably faded or even gone.
Thunder Pie | Scroll of Jawns: Episode 11

1 month ago | tinnitist.com | Serge Bielanko

jawn /jôn/ noun – (chiefly in the greater Philadelphia metropolitan area) used to refer to a thing, place, person, or event that one need not or cannot give a specific name to. Jawn is a neutral, all-purpose noun used to reference any person, place, situation, or object. In casual conversation, it takes the place of the word ‘thing’. My hair in the front is thinning out pretty fast. I look in the mirror, see my scalp at times; it’s yet another surreal reminder that I am dying.
Thunder Pie | At The Farm Pond Last Saturday Evening

1 month ago | tinnitist.com | Serge Bielanko

It was a hot spring day today and now I’m watching Henry throw a buzzbait up against the bank. His casts are almost all pinpoint accurate. He lays the lure down where the water runs up into the cut reeds; he starts reeling before it even lands, just like I taught him. A largemouth slaps at Henry’s offering/ we both watch the V in the water where its dorsal fin approaches like a shark keying in on a seal. There’s not much difference. Bass and sharks are both killing machines.
Serge Bielanko's Night Terror Blues - Tinnitist

2 months ago | tinnitist.com | Serge Bielanko

“Every town has an Elm Street.”— Freddie KruegerThere are these things called night terrors. They mostly happen in little kids under the age of 12 and that doesn’t seem fair to me. Little kids don’t deserve anything like that. What happens (on the surface of things) is that the kid is asleep but then suddenly they are also talking excitedly or screaming or calling for help. They might be understandable or they might be incomprehensible.
Siena Fantini Reacts To Your Post: Wanna Know Her Name - Tinnitist

2 months ago | tinnitist.com | Darryl Sterdan

Siena Fantini is curious about her ex’s new girl in her debut single Wanna Know Her Name — showcasing today on Tinnitist. Seeing a former partner soft launch a new romantic relationship on social media can make you feel uneasy, and the natural urge that comes with wanting to know more about that new individual is […]
Area Resident's Stylus Counsel

2 months ago | tinnitist.com | Ben King

I love it when a song you know and love gets used in a film or TV series in such a way that it makes you feel differently about the song. Check out the example above: Waiting For Something by Jay Reatard. The final track on his 2009 album Blood Visions will now be forever reminiscent of the awful scene at the end of the third episode of Season 1 of The Handmaid’s Tale, when Emily (Ofglen) awakes in a nondescript, stark white post-surgical room to discover her clitoris has been removed.
Thunder Pie | Marah Jawns: Episode 1

2 months ago | tinnitist.com | Serge Bielanko

Not long ago, I posted something on my Facebook page saying that I was planning to write some more stuff about Marah, my old band, in the near future. I mentioned that my format would be my ‘Jawn’ method’, a method — if you’re not familiar — which allows me a sort of liberated chance to write shorter, often unrelated, vignettes that ostensibly add up to a single threaded comprehensive ‘episode’ of Jawns. Confused yet? Haha/ hope not.
Thunder Pie | An Hour In The Heart Of The Country

Mar 8, 2025 | tinnitist.com | Serge Bielanko

8:37 am. A kid, a boy, maybe 7 or 8, is taking a piss out on the edge of the fields, where the woods start, behind the elementary school. It’s recess and all the other kids are making a racket a hundred yards in his rear. There’s screaming and laughing and high voices calling out names but it’s all one thing: like a big fire: as if so much energy is marauding at once that it’s not possible to separate the good from the bad. The noise is unstoppable and likely untouchable.

Jan 26, 2025 | tinnitist.com | Neko Case |Tanya Pearson |Deepa Ganesh

I haven’t spoken to Neko Case in more than 20 years, but I can still vividly recall our last telephone chat. She was in the back of a car, bombing down some rural U.S. roadway with a bunch of people who were trying to find an antique store. Needless to say, it was not the optimal setting for an in-depth chat about whatever album or tour she was promoting. But it did seem to be an accurate reflection of the whirlwind rollercoaster that constituted her life at that time.

Jan 19, 2025 | tinnitist.com | Stuart Murdoch |Henry Alford |Alan Byrne

Well, this is novel. Literally. For the first time in forever, this roundup includes a work of fiction — Belle & Sebastian frontman Stuart Murdoch’s Nobody’s Empire. Then again, since it’s the story of a young Scottish man named Stuart who becomes a songwriter, calling it totally fictional might be a stretch. Either way, it’s on my to-do list — as is the new Joni Mitchell bio I Dream Of Joni, if only because I love a pun.
