  1. That is some weird stuff, the burned bun and unmelted cheese. I'll give you points for how I presume it tastes. The second burger looks good but is weird because it's vegetarian.
  2. is that a screenshot from the OPN live show visuals? haha so crazy.. that was my first thought too! but no.. that's actually a cake believe it or not.. check it out, this woman creates weird custom cakes that look like anything but cakes.. http://www.buzzfeed.com/rachelzarrell/this-womans-mind-boggling-cake-art-looks-like-anything-but-d#57fnxs I was given this cupcake for my birthday last year. It was tasty.
  3. Well, somehow that post screwed up. All-pork burger. Mushroom and swiss bratwurst patty with bacon. Colby-jack cheese. Mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard. Spinach.

    I didn't know so many people hated 180db. I think it's a good track. Not anything overly special about it, but it's good for what it is. It's a nice segue into Syrobonkus. It DOESN'T prepare you for the mind-blowing nature of the following track :)

    I didn't mean to quote my own post, I don't know what I was doing. But anyway, I'm just blasting the record now when I should be reading and writing an essay for a class I'm taking. Damn Syrobonkus.

    Okay. After listening to it a total of 4 times with some songs on repeat after the first full playthrough, I have to say... Fuck me sideways. Syro is a great album. I felt that the record was good after the first listen, but it was hard to really commit it to memory. It's such a complex thing with so many varied pieces that it was hard to find something to connect to. Usually AFX tracks have some sort of common element within them you can latch onto first and follow it throughout the song, such as a melody or bassline, but most of the tracks on Syro don't have anything that lasts long enough to hook you while you try to absorb everything around it. Minipops 67 and XMAS_EVET10 are pretty easy to get early on, but the album gets progressively harder to process as you continue to listen. This isn't a bad thing at all because there's so much to discover, but it was just hard to form a real opinion at first. I listened to the entire record multiple times at work today and it finally clicked. I had only listened to "the Metz track" twice before the release of the album and thought it was good then, but there's something about hearing it here in its purest form that makes it stand out. If there's a perfect song on Syro, then this is it. My only gripe (if you can call it that) is that it ends too early. I know the track is 10+ minutes long, but the best part to me is the "la la" part at the end and it just doesn't last long enough for when it is introduced. Small thing. PERFECT track. Produk 29 is one track I haven't gotten into. It's not bad, but doesn't really do much for me so far. 4 bit and 180db are funky tracks, but the 6 songs that follow are what really make the album. CIRCLONT6A may be my favorite track on the record. It's a crazy Tuss-like banger with acid lines that I just can't get enough of. CIRCLONT14 sounds like it wouldn't have been out of place on Drukqs, which is a very good thing. syro, PAPAT4, and earth portal are pretty fucking awesome. It's good to hear RDJ play with Funky Drummer and Think breaks the way he does here. Maybe I'm not remembering correctly, but it seems like this is the first time he's used these breaks in his tracks. Aisatsana is a good way to end the album, but after all the chaos that preceded the track, I feel that it puts an abrupt stop to it all. That was likely the intention, so I'm not downing that. I just don't have much to say about it. As a whole, I can honestly say Syro is the best album I've heard so far this year. I'm not ready to call it Album of the Year at the moment, but I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't end up that way.

    Finally. About to listen and will share my thoughts after about 4 listens.

    I had a Time magazine issue that ran a feature on AFX releasing Come to Daddy. That photo was the one accompanying the article. This was obviously 1997. I wish I still had that mag.

    if you have below 100 posts, seriously get the fuck out of my face. It's like really? You want me to think your noob ass has a valid opinion? unbelievable Post count makes your opinion more valid? Get the f**k out ma face. Just shows that you have less of a life. Just kidding but, your attitude whiffed a bit. You haven't been around long enough to have an opinion. Haha. I've been here since 1999 and have less than 300 posts. Not necessarily a noob. I know it's a joke.

    I got a package from Bleep in the mail and thought it was Syro..... but it was the other stuff I ordered. I assume the other CD will come later. However, one of the discs I ordered was the Ventolin EP. I didn't have it after all these years and thought it was strange that Bleep had it in stock. Well, what I got was Ventolin EP 1 inside of the Ventolin EP 2 case... It wasn't sealed and in the wrong case. Strange!

    Music has the power to change lives. RDJ's music did change my life in a way. It makes you think differently, can change the people you hang out with, the WAY YOU FEEL. Lots of different artists' music have changed me throughout my lifetime. It's helped me get out of several states of depression. I mean, you make music, too, right? What would you say if someone told you that they heard your tracks and it helped them get out of a bad situation? Would you tell them that made you cringe?

    I didn't know there was a leak. I was just excited that Bleep sent an email saying my CD has shipped. I will wait until it arrives. In the meantime, I have had Chosen Lords on repeat for the past two weeks. I'll keep that going.
  17. Cilonen is pretty awesome, but I have to say this mashup works incredibly well. This is now the definitive version of the track.
  18. Of course they are. I hate the circle pad. I was very disappointed that you can't use the d-pad for movement in the game. The circle pad is so weak and imprecise that I prefer not to use it. A game like Super Mario 3D Land would have been so much better if that pad weren't so crappy. I know they couldn't put a real stick in it, but certainly they could make something better. Maybe that new nub they're adding to the "NEW" 3DS will be better.
  19. I have never listened to all of the Analord stuff, but what I've heard is really good. Seems like all the best stuff is on Chosen Lords. Reunion 2, Crying in Your Face, Boxing Day. I love those tracks.
  20. With Notch taking shots at Nintendo on Twitter, I seriously doubt it. A friend gave me one of his codes. It's really fun. Very fast. I just wish I could play with more than 4 characters.

  22. I really wish they'd be a little smarter here. First off, when they bring this thing over here, they need to change the name to something like 3DS Plus, because "New Nintendo 3DS" is just going to be just as confusing to people as Wii U is. The main problem will be having exclusive games that won't play on older 3DS models. There's no way I'm going to buy this new one as is considering I have only owned an XL for a year. However, if they come up with some sort of program that gives you like 75% credit toward the new model by trading in your old one, I'll happily do it. It just seems unfair. What about parents who go out and buy 3DS for their kids this Christmas? Shortly after that, the mostly-superior "NEW" model comes out and their kid's new gift is obsolete. Not only that, but the kid sees a game that he/she wants to play and asks the parent to buy it, and then when they get it, they find out that although it says 3DS on the box, it won't play on theirs. It's a slippery slope that they need to find a way to avoid when they launch it in the US.

    To be fair, it does look like Corn Mouth on the back cover.
  24. How the hell are you guys beating this game? I'm LV50 and still can't do anything in the forest area.
