    As it happens, a Humble Bundle just came up including the whole run of The Boys in digital, so you can grab the lot for a pittance.

    It's a discount of 16.7 % compared to buying the eight releases separately for $12 each. It's also a bit silly to compare the price over duration of any release, because music is not sausage bought by length. If you're being humorous, I'm oblivious to it.

    Check out the original comics, they're way more graphic and explicit than the series, which has been toned down as to avoid getting rated X. The source material (released 2006-2012) is way more "edgy" than the series, the series has more emphasis on the (dark) humour.

    To be specific, The Boys themselves are not superheroes, but that's just me giving the ol' nit a pick. Yes, it's very good, but like a lot of comic book adaptations, the original comics are even better. Same with Netflix's The Umbrella Academy, the comic books are way weirder and better. Doom Patrol is also very much weird-out anti-hero series, and again - the comics are awesome, too. I'm actually looking forward to Robert Pattinson as The Batman, it looks even grittier and dark than Nolan's.

    Saw Tenet today with the mrs. Nolan's a long time favourite, and wasn't disappointed. Right up my alley, although I was expecting it to be more complex.

    Here's some I've been into recently, everything's not strictly industrial: there's some deep dark things, experimental things and whatnot, it's all good - this is what my techno sets sound like.

    Beyond the Black Rainbow (Panos Cosmatos, 2010). I was introduced to the OST by Sinoia Caves first, then I realized that it was from a movie; not fantasy per se, but trippy and weird, at times it looks like a Boards of Canada music video. Highly recommended, both the movie and the soundtrack. I also liked Sinoia Caves' first album, The Enchanted Persuader.

    Yeah, probably because people have cancelled their order (me included) due to the digitals getting rescinded from the release. Bah, humbug.

    Netflix's Immigration Nation. I knew about a lot of the things in the series, but FFS.

    I have linked to it a couple of times previously - Disposable Heroes of Hiphoprisy's one and only album, Hypocrisy Is The Greatest Luxury, is probably my favourite hip-hop album ever and I just listened to all of it after a longish hiatus - it still sounds as good as ever, and the lyrics are exceptionally poignant criticism of a lot of issues in the US in 1992 - and in 2020. The first track, Satanic Reverses, repeats this multiple times: Television, The Drug Of The Nation is a full-on criticism of the superficiality and anti-intellectualism of the natiion: The title track, Hypocrisy Is The Greatest Luxury: Everyday Has Become A Health Risk: The album is also produced really well, if you haven't heard it, I suggest you do - highly recommended.

    Vasto is taken from the forthcoming Cabaret Voltaire album, Shadow of Fear, released on Mute on 20 November 2020. Pre-order: https://mute.ffm.to/CV-SOF . 26 years since the previous album.

    Greetings From Finland is a compilation from a Finnish party organization, Haerski Jytke, I think somewhat related to the demoscene group TPOLM. Here's the compilation's track listing, I'll try to get my hands on a copy and dig up some more information as I know some of the artists in person. Lackluster @esaruoho should also know more.

    It's ridiculously easy to dump on the US nowadays, but for a Rolling Stone article this is exceptionally poignant:

    What bloody skullduggery is this, I splurged on the vinyl because of the accompanying digitals. Cancellations are in order.
