Everyday is Bandcamp day, but today is Bandcamp Friday. Two is probably the bext starting point to Dichroma's mix of metal/industrial/progressive music.

I once sold several CDs to Jeff Buckley before a show in Toronto and several of them were mentioned is his 'top 10' things he was listening to in Rolling Stone.

Here'e the full teaser for the second EP. It's good, really good. You should check it out.

The teaser for our even better 2nd EP.

Since Dichroma's music is still new to pretty much everyone on the planet, figured I'd post some old EP teasers as we continue to work on the follow up EP.

Up in a plane On the way to New Zealand Feelin' so lame 'Bout the things I was feelin' I had a bad dream That the plane came apart It snapped right in half like my sad, b0rken heart

Hello, I'm Silent Sam.

Ruin two bands by combining them: Faith No Morrissey

I once rang up a CD sale for English Patient author Michael Ondaatjee at the store I worked at. He said it wasn't him, but his credit card gave him away.

I passed out during Alive. Apparently I have an issue with cannibalism when the meat is raw.

Nice to see Apple have this option. Although we didn't do much this year (except continue recording the next EP), I think the numbers reflected that. 🤪

Black Sabbath are the reason why we have nice things in the heavy metal genre.

My favourite thing when watching mixing tips for music on Youtube are those moments when they make a change, bypass to the original signal, and then say 'wow. listen to that difference'. And I sit there thinking 'I don't hear any change'.

I knew my former band had started to make it, not by radio play or being approached by a producer, but when a friend berated me for an hour because we had changed our sound.

I think the close captions person was having a bit of fun with Megadeth's Hangar 18 video.

Happy Samhain for those that celebrate.

Might change the band name to the 'Defttwos' or 'Deftthrees'.

No one told me that the Wicker Man (1973) was a musical. What a way to discover my favourite Sneaker Pimps song is a cover though.

Had a dream last night that Alex Lifeson called and asked me if I wanted to be back-up guitarist on the forthcoming Rush tour. Which is weird because A) I don't know him, and B) aside from Red Sector A, I also can't play any of their songs straight through.

Cardiacs LSD just dropped at home.

I did a survey today on AI generated music, where they asked after playing snippets of several songs which ones were AI -- and I got them all correct.

Maybe someday I'll be good enough to do this all the time.

Saw Garbage last night, and they were great. Maybe a little too reliant on the backing tracks, but Shirley knows how to work a crowd.

Well, everyone else it doing it, so why not?

Thanks to Florgoth for this nice little write up for my Spoon Hammer alter-ego's latest release (out now on streaming and Bandcamp etc).

This is out tomorrow (29th) on streaming. It may be on Bandcamp earlier (hint, hint). spoonhammer.bandcamp.com/album/than-t...

If you don't like metal, check it out.

Spoon Hammer is going to be on the Indie Juke Box on Radio Wigwam this week (Monday on this side of the Atlantic; Tuesday on the other side). radiowigwam.co.uk/listen-live/ You can preview the 'single' "Blue Sky", which has nothing to do with this site.

Introduce yourself with the last five concerts you saw: King's X - April 2024 Tool - Nov 2023 Mr Bungle - Sept 2023 Mastodon/Gojira - Aug 2023 Mars Volta - Sept 2022 I may be missing something -- without ticket stubs my memory is a bit foggy over the past several years

Poor Ethan.

Spoon Hammer is 50% of Dichroma. And that (less talented) half decided to try his hand at an alternative-acoustic syle record while work continues on the next Dichroma release.

The ocean calls out to the salt in my blood.

Heard a bit of the Black Pink concert while waiting for the bus ride home after recording tonight, and it certainly doesn't sound like they use pre-recorded vocals. A lot of flat notes.

He'll be back in three days.

People that say that there is no good, new music these days clearly have never listened to Dichroma.

Love, [redacted]

Jeebus. This isn't aging very well.

Sonic Youth and Helmet. They sound perfect on paper for me, but I can't do it.

Well, I think I'm about ready to put a wrap on the 'acoustic' EP that I've been working on since September. 11 songs completed, so it's no longer an EP 🤣. Just need to add bass to one track and then I can look at releasing it soon.

I sometimes spend an inordinate amount of time trying to decipher if what I've read on Bluesky is in jest or not.

You cringe from my power\go home and take a shower. D.R.I.

I honestly don't give any weight to commentary that states Bluesky is an echo-chamber and that this is somehow terrible. I do think the lack of algorithms is a legitimate gripe though. To make the experience here better, you have to follow many which means less of people you want to see in the feed

I once saw Kevin O'Leary exit a limo in front of me while he was going the CBC building (where he had show and was as much of a tool as he is now).

Moments of poor judgement in product promotion. Candy exec: Our product features heavily in new animated film. Quick! Let's do a product tie-in. Anyone who has seen said film: 😱

check it out!

We now have a video for our cover of Red Sector A on the Rush For Cover tribute record. youtu.be/bh528Uw0pVM?...

Back in the old days when cassettes were how you got your music out there. Three bands that I was in, all with the same drummer. 2 with my current bandmate in Dichroma.
