The Half Machine Lip Moves Facebook Page is Dead
Facebook recently locked my account. I haven’t been able to regain it. I no longer have access to the Half Machine Lip Moves Facebook page, therefore I am declaring it dead. Please don’t send messages to that page or try to contact us there. You’ll just be shouting into the silent and indifferent void if you do that.

Episode 252: 5/26/2024
This show began with a set of brand new post-punk, darkwave, and synthwave tracks. Then we began the show proper, which was a tribute to the late producer and audio engineer Steve Albini, also of the bands Big Black and Shellac. We played tracks from releases that were recorded, mixed, or produced by Steve Albini, as well as tracks he played on or wrote. Most of it leaned on noise rock and no wave, along with a bit of post-punk, and we closed the show with a set of post-rock, experimental, etc.

Episode 251: 5/5/2024
We started this show witha set of new post-punk, darkwave, and EBM tracks. That was followed with a set of post-punk and synthpop with an underlying theme of being stuck and going nowhere. The third block block was a somber one. The fourth block was a set of post-punk, darkwave, etc. tracks themed around magic, because this show was supposed to air around Walpurgisnacht. We played a set of tracks themed or referencing Halloween in the fifth block, because it was about halfway to Halloween. And we finished the set with a track of mostly-new dungeon synth tracks.

We’re starting off with some new post-punk, goth, and darkwave. We’ll have some of our usual industrial, darkwave, post-punk, plus a set of new dungeon synth tracks; a set in honor of it being (a little over) halfway to Halloween, and more! There won’t be a podcast of this show.
