  2. It's all in French so could be 😁 no wonder it tastes bit different. In all honesty it's different spelling but I do think there logo should be a dolphin. Maybe flipper. A flipper dolphin 🐬 chocolate bar would certainly put the company on the map. They'd get alot unwanted attention from animal rights groups of course and the WWF would not be happy.

  4. This. OMG are crushing live, because it's the heaviest side of Isis and can stay focused in a coherent set list where they play the hits. But, man, the albums just wander all over the place. Same with Sumac. The genius of Isis was having guys in the band that had strong enough personalities and their own writing chops to reign in Aaron Turner. Left to his own devices (and apparently in OMG too) he just can't keep songs focused enough to produce a great album all the way through. On the other hand Palms, which is all of Isis excluding Aaron, + Chino Moreno on vocals, is too soft. The songs are constructed more better than OMG or Sumac, but they lack the Aggressive Turner OverdriveTM. Isis was pure synergy. True story: back in 2002 or so I went to see Cult of Luna open for Isis on the Oceanic tour. It's beyond me why now but, while I had heard Oceanic, I preferred CUL up until that point. For whatever reason CUL didn't really pull it off that night. But holy shit, seeing Isis was a revelation. They even leapfrogged Neurosis in my book. Although, these days Neurosis still remain the band to beat in the post metal space.

    What Are You Listening To?

    For some reason I got the urge to listen to R.E.M.'s "New adventures in Hi-Fi" yesterday and now that's almost all that's been played here since yesterday. Me and a friend used to bond over this record and "Ok Computer" a lot in high school. I had a big crush on her for a while, which I funnily enough I think was fueled by our intense discussions about music, not us being in anyway a good match otherwise. Leave is still such an amazing song. love the droning guitareffect that runs through the whole song.

  6. With the amount of kids my ex-sister-in-law has had with different fathers she has certainly maximised the odds on getting at least one gene pool that has the compassion required. 😂

    Been holed up in my ride most of this week to Aaron Turner 's collectives art wank post sludge ib extended repeat Old Man Gloom / Ape of God (2914) -my entry into OMG-This one (actually two albums) didn't click when it came out -the noise parts were just annoying and self-indulgent. "get to the point"! Play some metal and spare me the crackling feedback. They still are annoying to some extent, but the noise parts don't annoy me so much. It's aged well for me Old Man Doom/Light of Meaning (2020) Old Man Gloom-Darkness of Being (2020) -one of the more interesting metal/post hardcore adjacent albums for me last year Sumac/May You Be Held-this album is the shit-nearly formless, shape-shifting and unknowable but it rules Zeppelin/IV-This one isn't too bad, either

  11. Fantastic choice! "Circle of Darkness" just slays from start to finish. Plague Years has a real knack for deftly balancing the speedy thrash and groove-oriented sections of their songs. Very well done. I was just playing that album on my headphones at the gym the other day. One of my favorites in recent memory.

  14. I'm a full one-man air band if it's music I like. Air drums with both feet and my hands, air guitar, moving around, shaking my fist in the air, mouthing the words or even singing along. Super entertaining for me. Less so for the family.
