    Probably the best Blink riff, and also the hardest, though that's not really saying much. It's just so blitzky, you know? It feels like I'm grinding steel.

    This era of the band just had such a nice feel to it. Juvenile, but still charming. Also that riff. Did I mention the guitar riff?

    If a low-rated restaurant's reviews are all about the service, then the food must be transcendent :blob_hmm:

    I feel like if the food was just alright, they'd mention that, even in passing. But when it only makes mention of the service, like the staff being rude or whatever, then the food must've been good enough that they omit any mention of it.

    It's like a tsundere lashing out at the protagonist but secretly remembering their kindness and not being able to admit it because it'd undermine the tsundere's thorny exterior that protects them from being hurt---

    idk where I'm going with this.

    How insecure are the men where you're from?

    Over here, they lose their marbles if they see another man... paint their nails :blob_facepalm:

    Got 4 different spam calls today, as has been the case this past week. Now what kinda fishy shit have I accidentally given my personal information to? :blob_hmm:

    Daily music recommendation #88

    The most recent recommendation (it was released like a week ago)

    This guy is unbelievable. Incredible lyricism, fire verses, intense instrumentation. As someone who's a rock fan at heart, I've always appreciated hip hop with live drums, and the drummer on this track goes fucking nutty.

    Listen if you like jazz rap and cool poetic lyrics

    What's your opinion on Kowloon Generic Romance?

    I read the first few chapters of the manga before the anime came out and thought the art was pretty, the setting was sick, and the plot was hooking enough, but then I forgot to continue reading it :blob_hmm:

    The Final Cut is a strange album, practically a Roger Waters solo project.

    I think it's pretty underwhelming, but it has some highlights. The closer is one of them.

    The time signatures are fun, the lyrical content is peak Waters, and a song about nuclear holocaust feels just right to end Pink Floyd's legendary discography.

    I thought that you were talking about someone who committed an arrestable and triable crime, not someone who committed a crime that's so bad that the CIA is going to silence them and leave no witnesses or evidence.

    We'll be seeing him in The Hague by next week

    No, we won't be seeing him. He'll disappear for real with no evidence or leads as to where they've gone, and after a few years, they'll be declared dead because they couldn't find his body. Only the agents who took the mission and the people who assigned it will know.

    There was this test I was taking for a position at a state-owned company and I failed in part because my dumb ass didn't get the message that I was just supposed to answer with exactly what the hip soulless anthropoids in HR wanted instead of being honest :blob_facepalm:

    The corporate world would chew me up :blob_no:

    I was surprised when I first found out Eddie Van Halen was half-Indonesian, but looking back on it, yeah he really had that face. That is not the face of a typical white man.

    If he had short hair, he'd be an average Indonesian real estate agent. In another life, he would've been chilling on his massive porch listening to Michael Learns to Rock while hating poor people.

    Back to emoposting.

    This one is kind of a hidden gem of the genre. It instantly catches your ear with a riff in 5/4.

    The lyrics tell a nostalgic and tender story. Of a loved one perhaps? Or maybe a good friend?

    Nope, the song's about the band's decommissioned tour van. I've never heard a vehicle being described with such compassion.

    Interesting time to be an American right now :blob_hide:

    R.I.P Brian Wilson.

    I mean, I never really cared for The Beach Boys, but they were legends.

    Kokomo was another 80s song that weirdly colored my 2000s childhood, but that one coincidentally didn't feature Brian at all.

    Following yesterday's recommendation, allow me to show you a rabbit hole of songs with bizarrely similar choruses:

    What I suspect:

    Suimin Busoku inspired Hanamaru Sensation, and One Fine Day inspired Shaggy & Scooby Doo, but otherwise just a weird coincidence.

    But honestly I could see Hanamaru Sensation being inspired by The Offspring, considering they're both pop punk.
