Now playing: "Learning the Secrets of Acid" by #Umulamahri (Weird dissonant death metal) Came for the cover art. Stayed for the vibes. Good balance of melody and dissonance. umulamahri.bandcamp.com/album/learni...

Now playing: "No Way Out" by #QuantumTrio (Nu Jazz; Jazzcore) Can't comment much on the jazz part (not usually my thing), but those kick drum grooves really give this some life. Those almost post-metal moments are neat too. quantumtrio.bandcamp.com/album/no-way...

Now playing: "Surgical Steel" by #Carcass (Melodic death metal) I remember listening to this album and missing the feeling of holding and handling steel. carcass.bandcamp.com/album/surgic...

Spooky season has started in FB Marketplace.

Lots of things wrong with this, BUT you can bet I'll be attending. Dracula on the double bass. How could I not.

Pipes!!! I'm listening to pipes.

Spent a good chunk of the afternoon reading this book. Time to call it a day and engage in other less taxing activities.

Required watching if you shared this meme. youtu.be/SZIC3kFKnqA?...

Already beat enough people in the early access period, time to enjoy #HadesII in God Mode!!!

Now playing: "Perdition Of The Sublime" by #Sophicide (Technical death metal) Fun little gem from the Willowtip catalog. It gets djenty and melodic, and it always keeps things interesting. Holds up extremely well. sophicide.bandcamp.com/album/perdit...

Now playing: "Forever Abomination" by #Skeletonwitch (Melodic death/thrash metal) Lean and mean groove/riff machine of an album. skeletonwitch.bandcamp.com/album/foreve...

Now playing: "The Aura" by #BeyondCreation (Progressive/technical death metal) The opening to "Omnipresent Perception" still gives me a fun little shot of serotonin. beyondcreation.bandcamp.com/album/the-aura

Now playing: "Mar da Deriva" by #Vauruvã (Atmospheric black metal) This one hit really deep. Beautiful stuff. There's a cosmic, transcendental feeling throughout, but then the folk elements bring you back to Earth. vauruva.bandcamp.com/album/mar-da...

Now playing: "obZen" by #Meshuggah" (Technical death metal; Djent) Many years ago, someone asked me what I was listening to. I played them "Dancers to a Discordant System." They didn't know what to make of it, but we still listened to most of the album together. music.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

Now that I finished #FateStayNight, I can start reading #FateHollowAtaraxia. I still have some old ROMS laying around, but the fan patches were buggy and/or incomplete. Now, I can actually finish reading it. What a time to be alive...

Technologically advance a band: - My Nuclear Romance - Tungstenback

We'll be eating good in a week!!!

Now playing: "Polka Pit" by #TheDreadnoughts (Folk punk; Polka) Love me some accordion riffs. Going to be humming these tunes for the rest of the year. thedreadnoughts.bandcamp.com/album/polka-...

Now playing: "Chroma" by #Cartel (Pop-rock) Straight up love this album. The last three tracks are still a really neat trio that perfectly close out the experience. Skip on the re-release that just came out, IMO. music.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

Barnabus wishes you a good day.

Now playing: "Back to Times of Splendor" by #Disillusion (Progressive/Melodic death metal) Missed this reissue. There's never a bad time to revisit this classic. disillusionband.bandcamp.com/album/back-t...

Now playing: "Aura of Iniquity" by #DeadWorldReclamation (Technical death metal/deathcore) The replay value on this one is SO high because of how melodic the riffs and solos are. deadworldreclamation.bandcamp.com/album/aura-o...

Best spam email ever.

Intrusive thought I had while half asleep: "Does the address pizza.pizza redirect to Little Caesar's?

Ah yes, my favorite metal band.

Now playing: "Journey to the Centre of the Earth (1974 version)" by #RickWakeman (Progressive/symphonic rock) The wiki page of this album goes places. Check them both out.

These mice are great. Keep sharing them with your dads. www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/en/...

Starting the day here. youtu.be/oFObU6-qN_k?...

Share this with your dads folks. www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/en/...

Every version of this song is the best version of this song. Hope Käärijä is still doing this song in 20 years. youtu.be/l99D53M74b4?...

Random older woman (walks up to me and stares at t-shirt): What is that? Me: A wheel of Catherine. ROW: Oh (walks away)

This is what it feels like to listen to Glow by Countless Skies

Went outside!!! Reading about sociolingistics, listening to prog, and drinking coffee.

I do not enjoy doing this. www.theverge.com/news/774188/...

Now playing: "Es Para Ti" by #Intocable (Tejano; Norteño) Still doing discography run. Very important album in retrospect for reasons. Come and stay for the accordion fills and riffs. music.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

#MOMOLAND cb! We're so back!! youtu.be/0FmUrK7mh84?...

The AI Jesus image going around is how Zhou Mingrui from #LordOfMysteries is going to look like upon reaching Sequence 0.

Two days in a row that Edward has fallen asleep like this.

I need #TinyChef to recreate Jamiroquai's "Virtual Insanity" video.

I'd be cool if the (not pictured) Bulbasaur branded soup were vegetarian.

Me, trying to play WCRB on smart speaker: Attempt 1: Play WBRZ Attempt 2: Play WBEZ [Partner volunteers to help.) Attempt 3: Play WBRZ [Gives up. Partner takes over.)

Now playing: "Un Domingo en Buenos Aires" by #LosElectonicosDisonantes (Psychedelic rock + Guarani polka) Seldom that I connect with BC editorial lists. This rec, tho, is straight up amazing. Catchy, melancholic riffs accompanied by 60s organ. It rips. 4l4music.bandcamp.com/album/un-dom...

Now playing: "La Debacle de las Divas" by #BlancoTeta (Experimental noise punk/rock) Recorded live. Angry, yet oddly danceable. For the "working-class divas ... too broke, too tired, too late, but still loud." This rules!!! blancoteta.bandcamp.com/album/la-deb...

You know the message isn't going to be good when it opens with "I queried Gemini."

Line has been cast. Waiting for the (cat)fish to bite.

Don't know what this "Emo Cabaret" is about, but I'm going to find out tomorrow.

Now playing: "White Pony" by #Deftones (Alt metal; Shoegaze) In an attempt to listen to older albums in my collection, I'm going to listen to several albums from each year starting in 2000. This is more or else when I started to learn about my tastes. music.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

Now playing: "A Lantern Swathed" by #Erreth-Akbe (Dungeon synth) Lush and magical album. erreth-akbe.bandcamp.com/album/a-lant...

Now playing: "Subject to Change" by #AlannaMatty (Indie folk/pop) Alanna makes some really catchy sad songs. First time listening to this after seeing them live last year. Go check them out. alannamatty.bandcamp.com/album/subjec...

Now playing: "private music" by #Deftones (Alt metal; Shoegaze) Very personal, weirdly spiritual, album. Probably some of their strongest material. Taking me straight back to the self-titled or Saturday Night Wrists albums. music.youtube.com/playlist?lis...
