Kousin Marvin is out doing the Moonwalk. So the other Kousins did an Extended Now Listening combined with Let Me Know. This includes a deep dive into a KISS-adjacent songwriter. You’ll enjoy it.

We have Instagram and X. We can’t ask for those “enjoy” things and for you to keep getting updates because Facebook doesn’t like that. Pfft…

October 7, 2026, marked the 40th anniversary of Slayer’s Reign in Blood. So, the Kousins had a listening party. The whole album was over in 28 minutes. So they took time to pay a short tribute to The Spaceman himself, Ace Frehley, who died a year ago on October 16.

Calls from Nick Provenzano from Northern California, Jim from Irwin, Jem from Alabama, and Bruno from Sunny and Blue-Skied South Africa.

To honor the anniversary of Eddie’s passing on October 6, The Kousins put together a Top 10 of the early years, or the DLR Mach I era. This means the albums included were: Van Halen (1978), Van Halen II (1979), Women and Children First (1980), Fair Warning (1981), Diver Down (1982), and 1984 (1984). 2012’s A Different Kind of Truth was left out of this. Each Kousin submitted their Top 10 individual songs, and each was weighted. A #1 vote was worth 10 points, #2 was worth 9, #3 was worth 8, and so on. Then the scores were averaged and ranked. There were 60 possible song choices. Were any of them “Goochers?” A Goocher happens when all four Kousins vote for the same song, regardless of their individual rankings. You gotta listen.

Calls from Jim from Irwin and Jem from Hurricane-Awaiting Alabama.

What is your Top 10 early era Van Halen songs? We really want to hear.
