About Us


There is a good chance you found us accidentally by using the word “taint” in your search (If you found us on purpose, you deserve our accolades). Of course, we don’t know what you were looking for, but you stumbled on a damn cool project. Look around; let us help send you on a musical journey. Here you will find a number of album reviews from the strange and extreme to the tame and mainstream. Our reviewers are a bunch of obsessive miscreants. Most of us are avid music collectors and have been involved in the music world for decades. A couple of us have been in or are still in bands.

There are no rules on Tickle Your Taint Blog. Our reviewers might make you laugh, or piss you off; both results are legitimate. One reviewer might write a glowing review of an album; another might tear it apart. We may have a new review every week, or we could end up with one every six months. This blog exists as a social experiment to build community among a diverse group of music maniacs – our reviewers and hopefully you.

Hinckleyhadavision’s Favorite Music in 2024

By Hinckleyhadavision


It seems like my year has allowed little time or access to new music. The music apps are the only way I listen to music, and they have commercials that I absolutely can’t stand, so I didn’t listen much—even during my long commute. Mostly, I drove in silence—stumbling through the cycles of my own thoughts.  

Then, I remembered coming across Justin Townes Earl’s “Harlem River Blues” this spring. I found it glorious in its darkness—the profound hope in the end of suffering. Justin, found it, sadly—for us all.
