(Rotten Apples) The Smashing Pumpkins Greatest Hits 1991-2000 on vinyl for the first time ever! Exclusive 2LP on 180g 'Pearl Platinum' color vinyl only available for pre-order madamezuzus.com/collections/ro… This is the only color edition of this vinyl in 180g

Our song "I Saw Her First" has enjoyed a mysterious jolt on all streaming services-nearly 100k on Spotify. There's probably some depressing explanation, like a band with a similarly titled song. Still: Give our songs a couple spins and push us into six digits.

Missing Jim - 27 Years

@LaraMondae @ChicagoTheatre @93XRT Last night was my first time in Chicago since Lin’s passing. I sure miss him.

Worthy podcast.

It's Brian Wilson's birthday! Happy 81st to America's most important songwriter. Shown here in his home with The Lilacs @KenKurson in 1998.

We're late to this, but what a great podcast, right in our prairie rock wheelhouse. First episode of @1000_misses features two great songs (Green and Shelter), two good ones and an Alex Call dud. Find this podcast and clock that subscribe button. 1000greatestmisses.buzzsprout.com/2128965/123136…

Rock and Roll Globe SONG OF THE DAY: Why aren't @TheShazam known to every power pop fan in the world? Here's their gem Super Tuesday, in honor of today's primary elections in New Jersey. open.spotify.com/track/5uJt2O3S…

Nice to see My Baby Does It for Free appear on this compilation. Jim Ellison produced that song and also sings the high harmony on the very "Fox on the Run" octave buildup.

@joshcaterer Happy birthday, and what a great playlist. Needed a new Black Flag song in my life and always with No Action.

Listen to our hit song "I Saw Her First." Available from @pravdarecords and wherever music is sold. music.lnk.to/GY2rxw

Newly unearthed shot from the archives. David Levinsky rockin a tux thrift look at Idful Studios, where Brad Wood is miccing something. Jeff Gatesman, who directed the video for Hop In the Stanza, stands in the upper left corner and unknown holding the camera.

Skafish. Shoes. Five Stairsteps. Green. Ides of March. Compendium of Secret History of Chicago Music columns from @Chicago_Reader is a steal at $25. Intro by @JimDeRogatis. Reach out to Plastic Crimewave or take the radical step of visiting an actual independent bookstore.

The hosts of @PerformanceAnx podcast put our sticker on shipping boxes at work. They go all over the country and sometimes return. Just like The Lilacs.

With #Monica trending, we're reminding you to add The Lilacs hit song Monica to all your playlists. Or most of them. Or some. Or one. open.spotify.com/track/6wC34dsq…
