#album kinda sux tho

[echoesofadream]

obsessed with unforgiven choreo...

[estradasphere]

john in general seems kinda shy about his vocals , tho i havent listened to him beyond estradasphere and his first solo album so maybe he got better abt it in time idano. most of the time when he sings live for estradasphere he either gets real quiet/soft or pushes himself into a weird loose falsetto , which isnt rly a problem he has on their studio recordings. especially when they perform millennium child live he almost seems reluctant abt it. and in his first solo album his vocals are mixed reeeally quiet . sux cuz he's got a super good voice he just needs to put his entire pus-- nvm im not saying that but you get what i mean

(226-240 albums etc that I’ve listened to this year, copied from twitter) (now with art. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17])

names and thoughts below cut

226/ Rabit - Baptizm (2015) insanely subdued intro not sure about the high pitch aliasing in "Straps" "bloody eye" is pretty wild. really dirty percussion on some warbly synths. i'm marking this as the standout in a cool, moody EP

---

227/ Common Creation - Sunset Seance (2023) lower tempo + breaks on top of a wobby sound. my favorite :D i think this is the type of sound SGX would make if he were active today. big beats, beefy bass, lush chord textures flitting beneath it all. it's a delight

---

228/ VA - Infloresce & Friends Charity Festival (2023) poor "Gentle Leafy Road", cute banger with a late penalty "make it make sense" bbbbbbbbanger "just existing (in a good way)" talk about good vibes wowow. personal winner tho "Together" is a well deserved actual 1st place.

---

229/ VA - YEA VIDEOGAME (2023) as usual, a grab bag. some personal highlights: "coaxed from the ether" beej is kicking ass god damn "cow descent" hmm yes this is bang er. "Skyscraper Playground" yeah!! bounce!! "KirbYEAdventure" i adore how well this captures the CUTE of kirby

---

230/ VA - TINYMOD GRANDPRIX (2023) as usual, mixed bag etc etc. 2 hilights: (4k) "3n14ks24k4u" is insane for its size. basically just a good song in general. (48k) "light dinner 6" !!! the most nagz&vhiiula sounding thing ive heard in 20 years. holy shit!

---

231/ VA - BotB Advent Calendar 2022 (2023) absolute grabbag ofc. ighlights: (c64) "FL Studio SUX" oh holy shit that's a certified BANGER. EZ fav (fakebit) "Rooftop Wealth Gap RPG" hits that midi itch but a little harder. (zxbeep) "Beepbeep Hoedown" astoundingly soft for 1bit wtf

---

232/ VA - Spring Tracks XII (2023) mixed bag ofc. hilits: "Ophanim" ae-esque! twisting and turning and unfolding! slightly too long but like. god damn. "witness protection" gets its title bc all the ppl responsible for this scoring so low are in [title]. "GENERAL SERUM" hey wtf.

---

233/ VA - Winter Chip XVIII (2023) mixed bag etc. personal hi lites: "10 Celsius Winter" crunchy! "not here" spooky wild textures. i love warble. "Echonomicon" basically magic. 90idm hella. "Status Chill" yooooooooooo

---

234/ Aphex Twin - Blackbox Life Recorder EP (2023) the title "in a room" captures the overall vibe of this EP: lax. parallax mix feels the most like an dusty artifact from the archives (in a cool way) kinda loose overall but happy to have another drop of afx

---

235/ Tigran Hamasyan - Mockroot (2015) there's a certain intensity to these vamps. its often followed by serenity. i feel like a picky eater when i say this but i swear some of these songs (f.ex "Entertain Me") would kick ASS with a metal timbre. anyway: "The Grid".

---

236/ Starkey - Odyssey Five (2016) lush, slightly haunting. deeply nighttime music. "Tropical" is a misleading title for a wild and spooky banger. check out those BENDS. probably personal highlight? not to discount the more atmospheric stuff but…

---

237/ Oval - Popp (2016) yeah i guess it is a little more pop, huh. "ku" has the wild soundscape, transient weirdness, and pitch bends that feels 100% like what oval would make in 2016. perhaps fav? id call that a representative track anyway. shoutout to "fu"'s chops as well

--- August ---

238/ Lanark Artefax - Windox Rush (2015) "it's like afx" oh damn it rly is is that detuned chords too??? might just be lush but i think there's detuning here. "The Angel Problem" prolly fav. overall more "chill" than "electro" but still.

---

239/ hizmi - Soak (2021) absolutely unthinkable that this is coming purely from a stock X68000?????? it sounds so full of intention. insane. beautiful. "Rivulet" is just an unrestrained ilkae track like cmon

---

240/ Skee Mask - Shred (2016) smooth like a cold drink. title track "Shred 08" is kind of the outlier, being actually heavy. feels like a melody-deprived version what i expected bblr to be lol sorry rdj. i think the fuzzy clickyness of "HAL Conv." is my fav tho

[oldmyths]

ohh you get to see them in concert, that's so cool!! have fun :) my first favorite was enter sandman... I had it on repeat for days... but now I'm really into for whom the bell tolls, disposable heroes, and the thing that should not be. I should just listen to their albums in order. but I get stuck listening to my favorites over and over. (and yes ice cream sandwiches are gr8 I approve I hope it was good)

AAAAAAAAAAAA FUCK YES OKAY people (namely, my sister) shit on the black album/their self titled bc it was like, them ~going soft~ which is Such bullshit? like OK maybe theyre not making thrash metal anymore but as musicians they gotta fuckin GROW and maybe if the backlash from the fans about their “softer side” wasn’t so fucking obnoxious they would’ve done like. Different things than what they did

that bein said tho metallica has been like pretty vocal in not giving a shit about what the fans think re: “ur shit sux now we like old metallica boo hoo hoo” so like thats cool. thats also why i love them

Also, this is why i love you. “the thing that should not be” is UNDOUBTEDLY my FAVORITE track from puppets and my only regret from being born when i was is that i’ll never be able to hear it live with my own ears. GOD its so fucking GOOD DUDE AAAAAAAAA SHIT its that fuckin like, eldritch abomination shit in horror movies where you never really see the monster, and that just makes it even scarier. think blair witch.

“the call of ktulu” from ride the lightning also does this really well like i can just IMAGINE it in a film soundtrack to the final scene where we see the reaction shots of innocent bystanders who unfortunately get caught up in some shit and then a huge ass monster erupts from the sea, and the resulting waves pull everyone under. God this band was made for me

“I should just listen to their albums in order. but I get stuck listening to my favorites over and over.” ME TOO!!! that’s exactly my issue honestly. i feel kinda weird since i haven’t given “kill ‘em all” a good listen through but that’s cos i feel like…weird listening to it? it’s a “me” thing i think, but i’ll do it one of these days

enter sandman is SOO good though. the black album is definitely one of my favorites. disposable heroes is ALSO REALLY GOOD oh my god. i listen to puppets when i’m on campus sometimes and it’s really hard not to air guitar after james yells I WAS BORN FOR DYIIIIIIIIIIING but like. it comes pretty fucking close dude

when i’m at my concert i’ll be thinking of you! and if i manage to figure out how, i’ll post a video of it c:
