  1. The golden spray painted Godzilla action figure really drove it home for me. I couldn’t really decipher half of what dude was trying to say but was happy to see G get honored like that. Salute to whoever screamed out that “GOJIRRRA!!!” In the audience.
  2. You really owe it to yourself to take this one on a journey out in nature with you. Preferably at a beautiful place you’ve never visited before. There’s nothing like coming across Lichen while listening to it as well.
  3. Some real heavy parts dropping lately. This shit is psycho and that thumbnail ain’t click bait. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0qx-w9xQES8
  4. Duneray is such a satisfying listen
  5. TBH I’ve never been a big Squarepusher fan but this album fucks hard.
  6. So happy Bukele got re-elected. It’s unreal what he has accomplished. The balls it took to stand up to all too real death threats against him, and no doubt his family as well, to transform El Salvador from a hell hole and into what it is today is the most impressive display of political leadership I think I’ve seen in my lifetime.
  7. My brain pretty much shut down in self-defense halfway through the finale so I didn’t even bother processing your first gripe. Shit is terrible man. Fully on board with gripes 2 and 3 as well. I wish they had the director’s commentary track for the finale.
  8. Maybe I’m in a bad mood or something. The first few episodes I would rate much higher at the time of watching them but yeah, by the end it was 2/10 territory personally. I’m grading on a curve though since it’s HBO. Can’t front, if this were Netflix and wasn’t a part of a series I really enjoyed I probably wouldn’t be so harsh on it.
  9. True Detective S4 was an absolute train wreck. Not sure how it happened as HBO has an outstanding track record due to their quality control and willingness to green light projects other platforms would botch, if not avoid entirely, but goddamn. I feel bad for all the actors involved as this just came across as so bad in so many different ways. The editing with the overuse of music, and not just any music but for the most part really vapid and even flat out goofy selections (an acoustic, austere cover of the Twist?, for real?) caught me off guard. The overuse of profanity, especially the word fuck, particularly in the last episode, was mind-boggling. Seriously. Throughout the series but especially at the end everyone shared the same ape-brained dialogue you would expect from a 13 year old schoolyard bully. The show got progressively worse in all aspects but you can REALLY hear it in the dialogue as the writers rushed through it at the end. I honestly thought the setting and the basic premise of the show on paper could have been great. The native community, the mining protests, female protagonists all could have been handled just fine but they really did have to overreach and make it disturbingly woke. The complete gender role-reversal and glaring emasculation of the men in uniform is on full display here. Men are only fit to flip pancakes or submissively mop up the crime scene while their female counterparts are performing sexual conquests on other women’s trophy husbands or partaking in 3 v 1 fistfights with the neighborhood bad boys. Lastly, it’s just fucking bad. As others have already mentioned the jump scares they go for don’t land and look straight out of the forgettable early 2000’s Japanese repurposed for American horror audiences genre, complete with stock audio cues and all. They just straight up try to shoehorn in a connection to a riveting scene in from the first season of True Detective, there are a ton of plot holes, loose ends, etc. But the worst part is that they have some damn good actors in here that tried their hardest to polish this turd. Navarro was a little iffy in a few scenes but other than that I would say everyone tried their damndest to make up for the terrible writing and made it passable enough for me to continue watching it. I will say that I gave up on TD season 2 about midway through because it was boring and was pleasantly surprised with how much I wound up enjoying season 3. This was a fucking gong show however, but I can’t imagine a scenario where S5 could be worse than what I just watched.
  10. 7/7 Legendary Vampire, Flying, Trample and First Strike When Abysmal Spectre enters the battlefield destroy all opponent’s lands, creatures and artifacts.
  11. He went hamburger on this one. Probably even push a rhombus or two in the process.
  12. New Malfet https://malfet.bandcamp.com/album/dolorous-gard
  13. Just saw it in theaters tonight. Surprisingly awesome. I actually was invested in the characters, the score was phenomenal, and I felt they kept Godzilla true to his roots with his look and did an excellent job showcasing how much of a destructive force the big critter could be. I was even more surprised to be in an American movie theater with good attendance watching a subtitled foreign film.
  14. Dang. Just watched Parasite for the first time a couple weeks ago on MAX. Very worthy of the hype. Sad to hear it sounds like the paparazzi and police were really prying as hard as they could into this guy’s life and canceling his career over some alleged soft drug use and a rumored affair.
  15. He saw Andre putting out that flute album as a green light to release a (probably anti-Semitic) black metal album
  16. Damn dude well done! And yeah, like everyone else has mentioned you definitely sound very Kurt-like. I’m sure if you had the stomach ulcers like him you’d probably have boosted your Kurtness from 90 to 97%
