RIP King Bhumibol Adulyadej

Muchas gracias, mi amigo. Domo Arigato. Will play it at my next opportunity, right now listening to Hush Forever meets Deep Dive Corp. EP. Bliss:

New The Orb, Chill Out, World!

Man, that exchange rate, though...

That's a good point, I wouldn't exactly throw them out if I were "stuck" with them.

:drools:

I tried looking for it on YouTube, honest injun, I did.

Bananas not to scale

Not that unusual. The Fostex orthodynamic headphones come to mind as another example of inefficient yet worth the additional current.

Unholy carp.

Yes, Tales from Topographic Oceans -- Steven Wilson remaster with hours of bonus material -- Yeah, this is the stuff. (That first LCD Soundsystem album is so good. I think I will revisit shortly.)

Fuck insomnia! My days have bifurcated.

Opeth, Sorceress -- goddamn, I love the direction they've been going lately.

Heh. I'll leave it then.

Uh...no.

Peter V. Brett, The Demon Cycle (books 1-IV)

"Share"? I usually get two and eat them both. Of course, I'm a pig, so it's almost cannibalism...

Thanks, I will continue with it then. I actually really liked that they opened episode 5 with the entirety of that performance from Jidenna. It's rare that they play a song all the way through, and I definitely applaud that.

I hate when that happens.

Keeping tabs on the songs (it's all very deliberate, apparently): Episode 2 -- Radiohead, No Surprises @ 24:35 -- I had to look this one up, too, but at least I recognized it right away as a player piano/orchestral rendition of a contemporary pop tune. I love what they did with the Thandi Newton character, "bump up her aggression" (and she practically grabs a guest by her pussy), and then turn up her emotional acuity just a tad, and she becomes just right?

I take that back -- it's so slow, I fell asleep to it last night. Seriously considering not finishing it. Anyone who finished it want to tell me it gets better? Me, now: Alter Bridge live stream:

You are far too optimistic. Re: Matthew -- Anyone heard from Gene?
