  1. Wow Blanck Mass has got some serious competition in the pretentious album synopsis stakes
  2. Soundtrack for some modern dance show or something
  3. Remember that guy? He was quite tall. When I was properly getting into the whole IDM thing he was boshing out 3 albums a year. I really liked maybe 2 or 3 of them at the time but it was a little much output for me and I fell out of love with it pretty fast. I've been browsing Spotify today and dipped into a few tracks of his I used to enjoy and noticed he hasn't released an album in five years. What happened? Did he run out of ideas finally? 24 albums isn't a bad innings so I wouldn't blame him for not having anything new. I did a google and it seems like he tweeted about having run out of money or something. I hope he has money though and I hope it means he has been able to relax in a nice house with his nice long, soft (I imagine) hair. Also this is a funny video isn't it
  4. All I know is that if the art isn't good then I can't enjoy the music. Sorry Sean.
  5. New ae will be out in November source: me, I'm just guessing
  6. Skinny Puppy were my favourite band for ages. Obsessing over all their music led me to their side projects, led me into electronic stuff proper via Download and finally gave me a real appreciation for music that can hold my attention without requiring lyrics. Makes me sad that it's the final tour and I'll never see them live, assuming they don't come to Europe. Think I'd be proper emotional to hear their stuff live. Mad to think I am a latecomer to their music and I have been listening to them for 20 years. I used to nerd out about Puppy to any and all who would listen to me bang on incessantly. Now everybody has to listen to me bang on about Autechre.
  7. Cheers, yeah when I said I might have to give it another try I didn't get around to it until today. Inspired by the video floating around on reddit atm of Danny Carey live drumming on Pneuma I listened to Pneuma and 7empest. I enjoyed Pneuma even if it's sort of Schism again. 7empest is legit fantastic on first listen and really sticks out as potentially one of their best tracks. I think I will have to give the album another listen finally from start to finish, maybe I just wasn't in the mood before. Nearly 4 years on from FI and still no rumblings of any new material eh. I wonder if they'll ever bang out another album. Shame if not.
  8. Cheers for the EP notification. Absolutely love Basement, etc, wondered if he was working on new stuff
  9. I thought I was going to hate that track to be honest. In the end I turned out to just be not that fussed by it.
  10. Think you're mixing that up with A1-D1 IIRC.
  11. what's the deal with all this guitar music them kids are listening to these days
  12. Get Kaycee's Mod. It's in beta but it's essentially a roguelike mode of Act 1. It's breathed a lot of longevity into the game for me.
  13. I think before you can get people to wrap their head arounds the machinations of power you need to start them off with baby steps. But to be honest we can't get most people to sit in a cinema without chatting or twiddling about on their phone for two hours so what hope is there really. Give up hope I think.
  14. Bit boring innit I've tried a few times with this Colundi shit but it's a massive shrug every time. Do people rate it or what?
  15. Thank god covid was totally eradicated after freedom day and the previous covid thread was rendered redundant.
  16. I agree. The production sounds pretty neat but the vocals are nails on a chalkboard for me. Utterly dreadful.
