Kevin's Crucial Track July 21, 2026: "The Trench Coat Museum" by Yard Act
You owe it to yourself to go find the video for this song. It's _great_. The song is also great. Seriously. It was my gateway drug into this whole crunchy genre of English post-punk goodness. Enjoy! #CrucialTracks

Kevin's Crucial Track July 13, 2026: "Calling Ghostly Nations" by The Besnard Lakes
I know I share a lot of Canadian bands. I swear I'm not Canadian. I blame the CBC Radio 3 podcast, and my pal James McNally for his SxSW mixtapes back in the day, for introducing me to all the northern goodness. #CrucialTracks

I really like Crucial Tracks. But, y'all, how am I the first person to post songs by: Yellow Ostrich, Zero 7, Clem Snide, Junip & Fruit Bats?! Some of those are total Dad Bands, so, dads, you know what you gotta do: it's time to join Crucial Tracks and ruin it for the kids! (sorry) #CrucialTracks
