Episode 260: 9/1/2024

Half Machine Lip Moves logo with ‘#260’ on it.

We hit our 260th episode this week! We started this show with a set of new darkwave, post-punk, and industrial tracks. The second block was a set of industrial, noise rock, no wave, and punk with an underlying theme of work, because it’s Labor Day weekend. The third block was a set of noise, power electronics, and death industrial. Then we finished the show with a set of shoegaze, slowcore, etc.
