I don’t think I’ve ever really appreciated just how fantastic “South of Heaven” *sounds*! Yeah, great playing, etc. But on the level of pure production, it still absolutely KILLS. Where others from the era sound a little dated, perhaps.

Happy 93rd Birthday to the mighty Yoko Ono.

I’ve tried getting into #SkinnyPuppy several times during my life. Each time to no avail. Now I think I finally understand why. I reckon it’s because I’ve always gone into it thinking “I like #NiN, I should like SP.” When it should’ve been “I like #Coil, I should like SP”. The penny has dropped! 🤯

I’m not sure if I’m losing it after a three months of listening to Paul McCartney’s entire post-Beatles output, but the “dirt” on the cover of Macca’s fantastic 1989 album, “Flowers in the Dirt”, is starting to look like a highly abstracted version of the cover to “Rubber Soul”. 🤔

It’s the Government’s duty to protect all communities - including trans people.

They’re failing to do that.

Trans people deserve safety and dignity.

1/2: Maths in our house.

7yo: “Dadda, do you know any songs that are 45 minutes long.”

Me: [Couldn’t think of any] “No, but I know one that’s 42 minutes.”

7yo: “What is it?”

Me: “‘Read Only Memory’ by Chrome.”

7yo: “42 minutes plus 3 is 45 minutes. Do you know any three minute songs, Dadda?”

I wish my dad would stop sending me YouTube videos of my hometown’s city centre. Or perhaps I just need to stop watching them. It’s *genuinely* upsetting. The heart has/is being torn out of the place, literally! It’s some next level existential dystopian shit watching it all unravel. Nightmarish! 😧

Played this earlier. Never misses. Hard to believe it’s 34 years old. I think I bought it on a whim when I was 15. Took my head off. There’s a quality to FT that I’ve never really heard anywhere else. Maybe early Helmet. The drums on this EP almost sound like old sampled funk breaks. Hip hop sludge?

I used to think a book needed to be written that was adjacent to Azerrad’s “Our Band Could Be Your Life” but had #Slint as its locus and covered the late 80s/90s US underground. That book should still be written. But now I’m more into a book about experimental metal with #NapalmDeath as its axis.
Love this early 90s photo of Shane Embury of #NapalmDeath in a #Soundgarden “Badmotorfinger” tee and a #Helmet sticker on his bass. The older I get the more important Napalm get for me. Been thinking about them a lot of lately.
