At any point in time you may catch me watching television, usually an Aqua Teen Hunger Force DVD, Comedy Central, or Cartoon Network. However, lately, I've been watching The Food Network almost nonstop. No, seriously. So with my diligent viewing of shows like 'Food 911!' and 'Inside Dish with Rachael Ray' I've decided to present you with the following recipe.

Title: Grace Gale 'A Few Easy Steps to Secure Heli-Camel Safety' Casserole

Categories: Casseroles, Cheese, Sassy, Shrieked Vocals

Yield: 9 Tracks of 'sassy screamo'

Ingredients:

1 lb of Sassiness via The Blood Brothers or ground turkey (Cook's choice)

8 oz of attempted post-hardcore

1 Onion (chopped)

1/2 Cup of disposable riffage

1 Can of tomato paste

1/2 Cup stupid humor

1 copy of any album from the discography of The Letters Organize (Cook's choice)

A dash of 'dance party massacre' - As noted in track 3 'I Don't Know How to Put This' But I'm Kind of a Big Deal'

1 pkg. Macaroni and Cheese

In large skillet, mix the Sassiness via The Blood Brothers with an attempt at post hardcore, onion and disposable riffage. Stir in the tomato paste with the stupid humor. Cook the macaroni and cheese according to package directions, adding milk, cheese, and the dance party massacre to the mixture. Cook on medium heat for 33 minutes and 49 seconds, or to an album length you desire. Sign to Blackout! Records, mix well, press to compact disc, and serve.

Tune in next week when I show you how to cook up a tough guy hardcore cake!

Ever After
Pure Noise (2025)

Chicago’s Action/Adventure have been grinding the pop-punk trenches since 2014. They have always played pop-punk like it still has something to prove because for them, it does. They went viral in 2020 on TikTok with their song “Barricades” by calling out the exact thing no one in the scene wanted to say out loud. The genre is full of white … Read more

In Your Gaze
Time To Kill (2025)

If you didn’t know, hardcore and punk are alive and thriving in Italy. When I come across bands from there, their scene never ceases to amaze me. Italy gave us Raw Power and Negazione in the ’80s, Slander and Strength Approach in the 2010s. Now 217 picks up that lineage with their own mix of fire and reflection by keeping … Read more

Absinthe
Hovercraft Records (2025)

Contrary to what I said on Vh1’s Behind the Music, Tim from Hovercraft is one of my favourite human beings. I suppose in some ways that’s not saying much but Tim plays in one of my favourite bands, I’m a fan of his art and on top of those two things and running a label, his day job is saving … Read more
