Even the guitar tones on ZZ Top’s overlooked 1996 album “Rhythmeen” don’t come close to the tones I’ve been getting for this new Weak Signal record, my guitar sound this time around is a real human achievement, up there with “The Iliad” and the discovery of freebasing.
Against our own better judgement and the loving advice of our friends and families, we started recording a new Weak Signal album (our fifth) this past weekend.
Big up Anne Carson.
We congratulate Anne Carson, winner of the 2026 Nobel Prize in Literature. Carson is a contributing editor at Granta and a regular writer for the magazine. In celebration, we have lifted the paywall on all her contributions to our pages.

Except for these three XXLs, all the Weak Signal shirts from the shows last week are gone. If you’re in NYC and want a XXL, hit me up and we’ll make arrangements.
Books I was given at the Weak Signal shows this week, thank u @OswinBilly and @liquorstorenj
