Mr. Not

just checked it out. yeah, uh... no...

Forgot all about that song

well who are we to say

The same reason my 3 day weekends feel like 2

had 3 protein shakes last night. this morning? toxic poop.

This seemed to flop / do poorly in every way imaginable but i liked it. some of the actors/scripting is a little 'off' so i get why it didn't win much acclaim. but it's good

Leprous is cool

King's X - Cigarettes

1. Sudoku 2. Chess 3. Risk of Rain 2 4. Jenga 5. Uno

I'm no better than one of those people who eats an excess of junk food and then thinks some magic weight loss supplement / multivitamin will offset it, lol..

If my nicotine addiction gets anymore out of control it's gonna be bad

Got a lot of sun and took vit D supplements but still pretty bummed

I've really dug a few of their songs over the past three-four years, but just recently I gave them a proper full discog listen through, so this is my "first impression", but I'm a bit biased towards Coal, Congregation, and Malina since those are the albums I'm most familiar with.. And by a bit biased, I mean very biased. Anyway, I figured this would be fun to do in the meantime anyway. Leprous 1. Malina 2. Coal 3. The Congregation 4. Tall Poppy Syndrome 5. Bilateral 6. Pitfalls 7. Aphelion As for RYM's ranking: 1. Bilateral 2. The Congregation 3. Coal 4. Tall Poppy Syndrome 5. Malina 6. Pitfalls 7. Aphelion What's weird though is Spotify's listening stats don't reflect this at all - their first three albums aren't listened to as much as their four most recent ones which get millions of plays. But I have an obvious agreement with RYM in that I think their metal style is better than their rock/art approach - with Malina being an exception. Maybe Pitfalls and Aphelion will grow on me, I did enjoy a good amount of the songs on them, but the crazy guitar playing from Coal / Congregation is missed... Malina seems to hit a nice middle ground between their two approaches.

feel like i'm going to faint

RYM is a great resource for when first getting into bands, but I also like checking to see how much I agree with other fans/general listener's rankings. Here's how RYM ranks Haken: 1. The Mountain 2. Visions 3. The Cocoon* (Henshall solo album) 4. Affinity 5. Aquarius 6. Vector / Virus (complete tie) 7. Fauna ^ looks like there's a good amount of overlap in agreement. I think higher of Vector / Virus than most others do, and less of Visions.

been on gabapentin this past month and it definitely has been causing some concerning short term memory issues, which i saw commonly reported on le reddit.. off of it now.

I had something I wanted to TOST earlier but now I'm drawing a blank

Yeah dumbest idea I've had in a while

not to hijack this thread with zappa but i just went through spotify and "liked" all my faves by him, now i have ~500 songs on spotify liked with roughly 10% being zappa/mothers..
