  1. Cannibal Corpse - Chaos Horrific (2023)

    I try to pay attention to how much I can actually enjoy and digest properly. I talk a lot about burnout and that happens pretty easily for me, but the other path I can go down if I'm not careful is the endless stream of content - listening to everything, forming quick takes, but not really absorbing anything. I find I can alternate between maybe two or three new albums over the course of a month or two, as far as really paying attention and taking in what they have to offer. Any more than that and I start losing what I care about in the experience. So basically my listening habit is like it was when I was a teenager and could only afford a couple albums at a time, except I have to try to purposely keep it that way.

    I also find that being online at all while I'm listening is really disruptive to the experience, it turns music into background noise. That's hard to manage sometimes.

    This.  Absolutely this.  More is less for my brain and always has been.  It is not always necessarily brand new releases though, the same applies for aything new to my ears, in order to truly appreciate it needs to be drip fed.

  2. Took a day off work today after spending some of the weekend keeping vigil at my 97 year old grandmother's (eventual) death bed side.  Cold but sunny day here so perfect day for a long walk.  I don't want to live to be 97, surely such a big number deserves some option to go out on your own terms, not get eaten away by cancer and die high on morphine whilst soiling yourself.

    I loved Slayer...up through South of Heaven. Saw them only once, 33 years ago. Don't care what they're doing now. I don't care about them personally at all actually and I can't imagine being interested in any of this he said/she said reunion drama or who's suing who. Life goes on, I've got better music to listen to. Books are better anyway.

    Not if you can't read and only own Reign in Blood they are not! HUURRRRRRR!!!
