  1. This is hard to answer since I always listen to homemade playlists when it comes to boc. Except for TH cause its sound sits there years away from the others. I have one playlist comprised of the old tunes era songs, and several combinations of MHTRTC, TCH, IABPOITC and Geogaddi the bulk of which are from TCH and Geogaddi. So it would be one of those two for me. Probably TCH.
  2. I'm watching the first one again in hope of cleansing my mind of this experience. Why you gotta be like this, Kevin Smith
  3. Won't get to see the wonderboys this time round but just browsing this thread is good vibe central. The excitement is contagious, Sean chiming in with good tidings of things, concert photos of togetherness (fu covid) and lush recordings trickling in from here and there. How have the zoviet france sets been?
  4. Sprung. This is pretty cool! Easy going, small time criminal comedy with a vibe similar to that of Brassic.
  5. Quite enjoying Louis C.K's Horace & Pete show. Hadn't heard of this at all until it recently cropped up on imdb recommendations, dam glad it did!
  6. Really enjoying NTS 4 these days. Frane casual's biting wind on a snowy mountainside, that ominous sigh/whisper adding a deep warmth to everything as it rises closer, up over the horizon backdropped by a large muted sun, hazy yellow sky specked with snow and ice on the wind. Mirage. The vistas of frane casual where we’ve now gone from standing on the mountainside to riding the wind, a smooth sense of velocity prevails. Gliding above the snowy landscape, sometimes passing over the mouths of deep echoey canyons then across sprawling plains like a white desert with the forlorn cry of a large oxen rising up to greet us. Column thirteen. There’s a great sense of rest and and warmth here, like we’ve now reached a place of sanctuary from the snowswept mountains and chilling with some advanced race of beings, drinking smoking and talking of high things and surrounded by luxurious elegance of a glowing futuristic baroque architecture. The way it finally hits the mark of the melody it’s been swirling around at 14:55-15:05 is an amazing bit too. Shimripl casual. This feels kind of aquatic, like slowly sinking through an ocean full of weird electric jellyfish while playing some kind of slap bass dirge. It also really reminds me of that planet Yoda lives on. An emphasis on waterlogged, verdant biology with lots of mist and possible hints of shadowy beings lurking here and there. All end. The way it would feel to be perched at the wingtip of an aeroplane full of swooning organs. Or something. It’s definitely very high altitude and kind of angelic. If I was a priest, I would just have this as the sermon every Sunday! I think this is gonna get some heavy rotation as we head further into autumn/winter. It’s really got those low temperature, expansive feels goin through it.
  7. last night I watched Frankenhooker. A film about a guy who after his girlfriend gets run over by a lawn mower, sets about planning to reconstruct her from body parts of hot women. Getting inspiration on how to procede by self administering brain acupuncture with a drill, he decides to invite a load of hookers over to party where they accidentally ingest a load of super crack he's concocted which causes them to explode, and hey presto sexy body parts en masse. good trashy fun with some pretty creative special effects yet never overly gory and with a neat ending and plenty of hot 80s boobage to boot!
  8. Yeah, felt sorry for that Bush lead singer guy, he looked like a lamb for the slaughter walking onto that stage, totally dazed! It's sad how it ended up being the total antithesis of Woodstock 69, which totally had its share of logistical problems etc. But still, those peaceful clips used really hit hard when juxtapositioned with the almost demonic expressions of leering nu metal kids. But apparently it took a concrete monstrosity of an army base and rock n' roll fuelled madness for the air headed Mike Lang to realize it wasn't the 1960s anymore. Should have heeded the unbreaking bottle. And John Scher, who came off as a total caricature of the immoral, bald faced lying capitalist, was all too happy to come along for the ride. For what it's worth though these kids had a once in a lifetime slice of pure rock n' roll chaos in all it's crazed glory, and it did kind of look like a blast at times. If 1969 marked the end of hippie culture, then maybe Woodstock 1999 was the end of rock culture as it had been throughout the 1990s.
  9. Maybe 'ask Rob' is just his latest unwanted question deflection tactic
  10. ^same. Even though they're approachable I'd still feel intrusive trying to engage them. I might go for an acknowledging nod from a distance though and then just enjoy the buzz of having spotted them and being in their vicinity.
  11. I was surprised to hear Sean pronounce bladelores as blade-ellorres, or bla-dolores the same way the Gonkcast dudes say it. I always thought it was blade laws. Also how cool is it that David Lynch contacted them re performing for the David Lynch Foundation. Apparently covid put the koybash on it, but fingers crossed something could still come of that in the future!
  12. Liked ep 10, was left with a great want for one of those Cinnabon bun things, lathered with sugar n' all.
  13. his take on Kate Bush being way more punk than "all those other cunts" (referring to the likes of Sex Pistols etc. I presume) was great. Would also love to hear that dream collab between him and Kate he talks about.
  14. He's probably right. I never really took it as much more than the music itself though. I got into vaporwave around 2015 and still love it. Though admittedly it's been a while since I've stumbled on anything new that's been worth it. I listen alot at work and some of it is really good for reaching that weird state between awake and sleep in the evenings, or even just for falling asleep generally really. I've had moments where I've woken up to it in the middle of the night and just felt this surge of bliss relating to the track, like I was hearing it within a dream and here it is, in waking life. It's weird. Some of it is a little dark too, which is nice. It ticks alot of boxes for me. There's tons of not so good vaporwave around too though, which means quite a bit of sifting through to find the good stuff, and that can be kinda fun in itself given one has the time for immersion.
  15. Bill Burr live at Red Rocks, it's been a while but really nice to spend some time in the presence of the feisty ginger one again, good times!
  16. Cool, any ones you've worked on viewable anywhere? And, when are you gonna make your own sploitation movie!
  17. With the tripe that's being produced these days, maybe better off with the 1970/80s ( )sploitation flicks
  18. I found myself in the corner of a huge building stacked with various items related to horses. At this point I somehow already knew that I had succeeded in teleporting myself to Japan and was amused that I had reemerged in such an odd spot as a stuffy corner of some storage room at a stud farm. I managed to clamber over some large unidentified but cumbersome objects and sneak out a crack in the wall, all the while wondering how it was daytime here while it (apparently) still was daytime when I teleported from home. All the while very amused and pleased with myself at having done so. Another prominent feeling is that the place is very quiet, devoid of life, it feels like early morning. Outside now and three horses are now coming at me from further down the dirt road I'm standing on, I narrowly avoiding being rammed by a beautiful white unicorn looking one by jumping up over a fence into a field. Along the field I now spot the first signs of people; groups of young maidens, singing and joking as they walk along the edge of the field towards what looks like the barns and buildings of the main area of the farm. I'm now down at the main area and there's a hubbub of activity, one dark haired young woman grabs me by the hand and whispers in my ear "all free time should be spent on romantic endeavors" or something to that effect and we go into an office type room and start making out.

    Now Reading

    Helter Skelter, the story of the Manson Murders written by the trial's main prosecutor, Vincent Bugliosi, who seemed like one hell of a top bloke. Great read and insight into a fascinating and mad time.
  20. If it wasn't actually real, it would be really funny. It almost comes off as Pythonesque. The haughtyness and high strung mannerisms. It's basically John Cleese doing a "look at the zany academic" type sketch. Except it is the academic. Doing it to himself.
  21. yeh done to death, but very watchable still. I thought the Langmores were great, especially Ruth and Wyatt. The kid who played Wyatt needs to play Steve Zahn's kid in something. There's some familiarity there.
  22. recently finished Ozark too. Great stuff. Wendy was so ... arghh! a Karen stretched to nightmarish extremes. As the series moved on I found myself warming much more to Marty than at first I found him annoying, like Jefferoo said along the lines of "a smug well to do upper middle class ex jock type" he really does becomes the calm center of the rising storm of "fuckin insane shit" (in Ruthie's accent) that starts goin down around them. The build up (down?) towards the end was nicely paced, if a tad boring (my interest sagged a little there in season 4 due to over binging i think)
