Of all the podcasts I've listened to, easily the best. Perfect balance between information, analysis, entertainment and humor. A podcast so good it made me listen to all the Muse albums several times. Heavily recommended.

Now listening: Arctic Monkeys - AM (2013)

Sorry if you enjoy it, but it's among the worst albums I've heard, the exact opposite of what I like in rock music, in terms of production, songwriting, performance, everything.

Highlights : Do I Wanna Know?
Lowlights : all the rest

Currently reading the excellent "Triptych" dissecting Manic Street Preachers' 1994 masterpiece "The Holy Bible" from three different points of view, fascinating to see just how much there is to discuss around one single album

Relistening to "Dog Man Star" made me reflect on my favorite albums from 1994 — one of the greatest years in music, if you ask me. What are yours?

#music #1990s

Now playing: Suede - Dog Man Star (1994)

After struggling, I now quite like it. A bit long and not a fan of the production, but Butler's guitar, the gloomy atmosphere, and the strong opening run all shine.

Highlights: Introducing the Band, The Wild Ones
Lowlights: The Asphalt World, The Power

Now listening: Billie Eilish - dont smile at me (2017)
I like some stuff she's made afterwards, but I really struggle with this EP, between the cringy lyrics, gimmicky prod tricks, boring compositions and plodding ballads

Highlights: idontwannabeyouanymore,ocean eyes
Lowlights: party favor,hostage

Muse - The 2nd Law (2012)

Afraid to say it's not as bad as its reputation suggests...
Some terrible tracks, too long, and as usual I struggle with Matt's vocals/Muse's production style, but the poppier cuts kinda work on me...

Highlights : Madness, Big Freeze
Lowlights : Survival, Unsustainable

Now listening: Pulp - Different Class (1995)
Not as crazy about this one as for other britpop classics but still : constantly good, sometimes great, and has two of the greatest songs ever written thrown in for good measure.

Highlights: Common People, Disco 2000
Lowlights: Monday Morning, Bar Italia

Now listening : khc - Me and My Den (2024)

Nice textures, really like how the acoustic guitar sounds are treated to create these glitchy, warm atmospheres... Kinda like Mid-Air Thief but shorter so it doesn't get boring

Highlights : binulgul, kek
Lowlights : moon, mindtide

Ten films to know me:
1. Mulholland Drive
2. Love Exposure
3. The Silence of the Lambs
4. House
5. Back to the Future
6. Stop Making Sense
7. The Handmaiden
8. Trainspotting
9. Brazil
10. Titanic

Now listening : Suede - Suede (1993)

Slowly growing on me... While still not a big fan of Anderson's voice, Bernard Butler's guitar work is pretty stellar, and there are some really undeniable tunes

Highlights : Animal Nitrate, Metal Mickey
Lowlights : Moving, Breakdown

Hi everyone !

While I'm moving to BlueSky for obvious reasons, it may also be a good opportunity to try to discuss about music and movies a bit more instead of just shitposting like I did on Twitter
So bad takes and endless top lists and charts incoming, consider yourself warned !
