While looking for an old song, that turned out to be 'Pressed Rat and Warthog' by Cream, I found this early prog band Gnidrolog. This is 'Snails' from 1972. Progressive beyond its time, feels very Syd Barrett era Pink Floyd with Zappa like instrumentation, I am currently painting to it! Thanks MsT!

Trying to chase down an old song. Late 60s or 70s, maybe by one of the British prog bands, folky with some spoken word lyrics about a mouse and a rat, reminiscent of the Aesop fable, any ideas?

I don't know what exactly this is, some kind of Vietnamese Funk, I don't know what it means, and I don't care, but I'm here for this shit and falling down the rabbit hole.

I just watched Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein. Any adjectives I could use to describe it are wholly inadequate. I read that it received a 15 minute standing ovation at the film festival in Venice, but that too is inadequate.

In some odd way, the worse society becomes, the better I feel. Not because I like any of it, but because it justifies my nihilistic sense of foreboding. After decades of intense suicidal ideation, now I'm content to watch the society that never accepted me collapse.

Whatever that makes me, I am.

#VeteransDay Memories

1985, I had a Drill Sgt, he was the most hardcore soldier I ever met. He was asked about a flag burning incident in the newspaper. I will never forget his answer.

That's why I do this, so they can burn the flag, that's why we're here.

We need soldiers like that today!

This is me and my grandmother about 40 years apart in our Army pictures. She was one of the early women to join the Women's Army Corps.

New all female hardcore band out of Austin, Die Spitz. They dropped their first absolute fucking banger of an album in September. Some of it sounds more punk, some more thrash, some more grunge, all of it is dope af!

You heard this yet @nehoc.bsky.social

House of Whipcord 1974
Far beyond the women in prison genre, this relies less on sex, nudity, violence and more on mood and lighting. The worst bits are done with cut aways and fade to blacks, leaving you knowing what happened without the gore. This film makes a bold statement about fundementalism.

After diving into the UK Video Nasties controversy, I am taking a dive into the 70s new wave of British horror, when UK filmmakers broke away from gothic horror into modern genres like slashers and exploitation. Below you'll find my reviews of some of these films and where I streamed them.

Quite possibly, probably, my favorite song ever, if I have one.

I woke up with the phrase 'charismatic static' in my head, made some coffee, and wrote this.

Ode To Sake

Sake,
You cold dry devil.
You touch my lips and tongue.
A delicate fermented kiss.
An unrelenting lover.
Boyhood fantasies spring to life in your reflection.

Japanese tonight, and that means Sake. We enjoyed each other so much had to celebrate it with a few lines. #poem #poetry

I love it when an old favorite song, from an old favorite band echoes back to me from the past making it feel relevant again. Here's one, I'm sure you can figure it out!

A horrible guy who said horrible shit had something horrible done to him by another horrible guy.

I do not give a fuck about either horrible guy, or all the other horrible guys saying horrible shit about each other because of the first two horrible guys.

If you're in or near #Ohio and would like a local/regional light beer that still actually tastes like #beer, check out Cincy Light by Cincy Reigns.

Very light and crisp with good carbonation and just enough malty, hoppy bitterness that it still tastes like beer.

If you're an old #punk #postpunk #goth #alternative music freak like me, go back and listen to The Ink Spots from the 30s & 40s. Today it sounds dissonant and haunted, conjuring images that belie the original context. This style of music needs a revival.

I made some new friends in Tennessee, and we got on so well that I invited them to come home with me.

This is Chief Logan of the Mingo Tribe and my Sixth great grandfather. The fought on opposite sides in Lord Dunmore's War, but later became respectful friends. I hope there's something in that I can learn from.
