    The godmother of punk.

    Opening with one of the most badass lines in all of rock, you're thrown right into the cigarette smog of Patti Smith's machismo-filled cover of Gloria. First she hooks you with undeniable swagger, and then the track builds in intensity until she ah-ah makes you hers. I guarantee the chorus will be stuck in your head all day.

    At this point, it's really starting to show that I don't know that much about music outside of punk and other genres under the alt rock umbrella.

    I found this on Instagram. Putting Chivalry of a Failed Knight in the same chart as Monster is wild. Insane sneak :blob_unsure:

    It's day 51, so I had to do it.

    Stay woke.

    I'm also way more into alien footage than paranormal footage. So aliens all the way.

    Is it that different? Often sightings report activity doesn't follow our natural laws, breaking physics.
    Then I have also heard the vast majority of people experiencing abductions also mess around with occult stuff, hmm.
    Several different stories claim abduction stopped after crying out Jesus Christ's name. A curious reason for aliens to stop.

    I forgot to mention that I also think aliens are bullshit, just that I find the mere existence of them easier to believe than the supernatural. So I do think that most cases of alien sightings and abductions are either hoaxes, mistaken identity, suggestion, or some kind of hallucination or psychological break.

    Your MC description reminds me of a demon/baddie role in [Blood on the Clocktower].
    The role can swallow victims and then bring them back to life later in the game.

    If you ever want to see the different scripts played, [No Rolls Barred] on YouTube has a huuuuuuge playlist of them playing them.

    This is still an all-time great video from The Onion. The worldbuilding solos whatever gangly-ass webnovel you're reading, and every joke hits.

    I swear food delivery app discounts here are either:

    LIMITED TIME OFFER: GET A FULL COURSE MEAL FOR THE PRICE OF A USED CONDOM

    Or

    Spend 30 years of your life span on shawarma and get a 2% discount

    With nothing in between.

    Piggybacking off my previous post, here is One Armed Scissor. I'm not really a post-hardcore guy despite being an emo guy, but this song fucks. It's undistilled aggression in a 4 minute container that can barely hold it. It's like stealing a cop's gun. Nothing else like it.

    The post-Nirvana age is so interesting because they just let whoever the fuck perform on late night TV back then.

    Then again, Knocked Loose were on Jimmy Kimmel recently :blob_hmm:

    You know, I was worried about the exact same thing
    when I was 8 years old

    Should I be lobotomized for thinking that croissants look tastier unbaked? Like, just the clump of raw dough shaped into a croissant. I bet the mouthfeel would be crazy.

    I think every year the UN should make itself useful and put up a global poll for which country should be nuked. Of course, no one will actually get nuked, but I believe this poll will elucidate many things about our modern world :blob_hmm:

    Described in 1 word, Kara's Walk Home are "soul". Few bands are raw, honest, and kinda cringe like they are. Sonically, they're reminiscent of Brave Little Abacus, but with a little bit more sensitivity to their DIY emo sound.

    Lyrics great, instrumentals very good, Lead vocalist.... voice break overkill.... is going to break his larynx. I would prefer smoother with occasional voice break for emphasis or at least smoother singing mixed in.

    I've personally listened to a lot of underground internet-era emo music, so I've developed a tolerance and even a fondness for the vocal style, but it can definitely be a barrier of entry for some people. But if you can get used to them, there are a lot of musicians in the scene making interesting stuff... Maybe it's self-gatekeeping in a way :blob_hmm:

    Nah, self-gatekeeping is the way I write. ???

    I have an interview lined up for a scholarship, but it could either fall sometime this week, next week, or the week after that.

    The schedule has not been shared yet, but word on the street is that some other candidates already have their schedules.

    I feel like I'm in the unexpected hanging paradox.

    Feeling uninspired and soulless today, so have some generic crescendo-core post-rock that sounds like if an insurance commercial had a baby with an inspirational sports drama.

    Listen if you hate good post-rock.

    Genuinely better than the original. The added (or subtracted?) metric intrigue elevates a rather pedestrian set of melodies into something that really catches the ear. The pre-chorus especially works really well.

    Also uh, daily music recommendation Extra Edition(?)

    Can you tell I like math rock?

    TTNG are a technically-gifted British 3 piece who kinda lack quality songwriting, but this song has some fun anti-capitalism in it. No cats though.

    This song fucks. The live version is better, and you can really hear the tambourine shifting on and off-beat as the time signatures change around it.
