Greetings, party people — our triumph of the spirit has once again prevailed and we have, somehow, made it another week around here! It is the Autumn Equinox in some parts of the world, where people of all ages, for whatever reason, yearn for pumpkin spice and don athleisure, Uggs and yoga pants, or hoodies and jeans (or shorts — at least, until the snow starts falling). We will try to wake you up when September ends, but in the meantime, here’s an incomplete list of new releases for September 26th, 2025. Feel free to jam the playlist below (just to make Mort. happy when he advises that you ‘Check Shiner’), let us know what you’re looking forward to this week, and remember: since the dawn of time, man has yearned to destroy the sun. Until next time!
