    i'm still playing Fire Emblem Fates (Conquest). i got distracted from the main quest and started pairing everyone off to get their children. i've got most of the kids now so i'm going to try and clear the main story so i can move onto Tokyo Mirage Sessions (which i've brought but haven't played yet).

    Finished Purity by Franzen. Not as good as Corrections / Freedom (no surprise, they were excellent) but it was definitely enjoyable.

    Started on South of the Border by Haruki Murakami and is looking to be as melancholic as his other work. And short too, which is a plus! Too many eight hundred pages books to read atm.

     

    i recently brought 2 more of his (Colorless Tazaki and What I Talk About When I Talk About Running). something about his stuff keeps pulling me back in despite me never being sure if i like him or not. i enjoyed South of the Border right up until the end - it ends just when it gets going and it doesn't answer anything (typical Murakami).

     

    i'm reading The Naked and the Dead (Norman Mailer) at the moment (a 700+ page novel). good stuff so far. some very purple prose keeps cropping up but he did write this in his early/mid 20s so it is mighty impressive considering.

    recently read:

     

    Flow My Tears, The Policeman Said - PKD (re-read)

     

    Scale - Keith Buckley

     

    Into The Miso Soup - Ryo Murakami

     

    ---

     

    Flow My Tears is classic PKD. great book.

     

    Scale is by the vocalist of one of my favourite bands (Every Time I Die) so i was pretty worried it would turn out shit, but it's good. not amazing, but good. he has a lot of potential as a writer so i hope he does more.

     

    Into The Miso Soup was great too. i breezed through this over a few days. highly recommended this one.

    stupid first world problems you're dealing with

    2 recent orders from 2 separate record labels have fucked up recently. ordered a t shirt from Big Scary Monsters which hasn't arrived in over a month and Sargent House have messed up an order i made for 4 records (one is the wrong record).

     

    both distributed by Awesome Merchandise so i don't feel good about using them again.

    i also have a record pre-ordered from each of them so lets pray those orders don't get fucked up too.

    i finally watched The Good The Bad And The Ugly and finished the dollars trilogy... it only took about a year. each film is better than the last. didn't realise it was 2 and 1/2 hours long. didn't feel like it. what a film!

    listened to Replica for the first time in ages, the Replica > R+7 > GoD transition is just crazy to think about

    he truly transcended with Replica. he has been magical ever since.

     

    did we all agree that GOD was hands down the best album of 2015? p sure we did.

    nah, don't think it was that unanimous. the people that liked it really liked it i guess but i would say the reaction to GoD amongst fans was mixed, or more so than you might imagine.
    NO

     

    WE ALL AGREED IT WAS THE BEST ALBUM OF 2015
