I know they are canceled, but every now and again I still like to revisit the sheer lunacy of Die Antwoord. This was the anti- ritual circumcision PSA.

 

[Ye Macce Threade]

The New AirPods Pro 3 are night-and-day better than the previous generation in sound, fit and seal (for me).

Absolute no brainer upgrade.

[Happy Birthday Mikeymad and Dreadhead!!]

Happy Birthdays gents!

[What are you EATING right now?]

A breakfast almost worthy of a Grehaem.

Venison snausage and bacon hiding in the periphery.

I would also like to note that this is what happens when you give the humble potato to the French. 🫣

This is one of those songs that when I first heard it I just liked the little, subtle hooks in it. And the overall mood. Then slowly, I actually started getting the lyrics and, well, fuck.

Spoiler

And I saw you unwind
Your sleeve caught on a wire
You naked and true
Dancing alone in the shadows
Of the emptiest house
On the emptiest street
Those hours we burned
Like old news on the mantel

What a merry-go-round
Ride back to ninety-nine
We used to be friends
Slinking down to the bottom
Of old bed-stone walls
Held on all summer long
You'd tied a rope to me then said

"You have to let me go"
"You have to let me go"
"You have to let me go"
"You have to let me go"

We used to be friends, circa '99
All the years you spent
Slipping into shadow
From an old dream you wake
One frozen summer day
You'd tied a rope to me then said

"You have to go away"
"You have to go away"
"You have to go away"
"You have to go away"

I guess all I mean to say
Is I know I haven't been
The friend I was back then
But all this time rots out the brain
Empties it, refills it up
Until the ones you'd love
You'd never recognize

If not for a familiar face
A fleeting glance to send
You back against the odds
Of having lost every trace
Of who we were before the earth
Had spun around the sun
Two thousand times
Like it wouldn't once more

[What are you listening to Part the Third]

I always had a soft spot for Guster as Massholes.

 

[Happy Birthday morphsci!]

Happy birthday! 
 

Irish Breakfast in your honor.

7 views? Fuck me, maybe I'm the only person who likes bleak Swedish conceptual art/dreampop. (Actually, when I put it like that ... 🤷‍♂️)

Fleeting Temples is the solo project of Rickard Sjöberg (Lacrosse, The Mountain Council, Discolor) along with various friends. Based in Uppsala, Sweden. "The Invisible Man" (2022) was a concept album about toxic masculinity and featured lots of guest vocalists. "Zenith / No Shadow" (2023) was a much more personal album, with artwork by James Marsh. The trilogy was completed with "Beast" (2025).

Fan of this kid. Very sardonic sensibility and seems to really care about the musicianship.

Alec's been on a big 90s alt rock kick and has been sending me some stuff I'd honestly completely forgotten.

Very local South African tune. The singer was my high school headmaster's son. 🤷‍♂️
