love a good story
It is scientifically impossible to play this song too loud.
I liked the darkness in the early 00s when their initial hits came out but then just forgot about them.
I have since rediscovered them.
This song, Bald, and the album it featured on: One way ticket… are absolute fucking bangers.
10/10.
Even though the WordPress ecosystem is about as stable as the dimensions in Ratchet and Clank Rift Apart right now, I do still self host my website on it.
I’ve been working on a lastfm scrobbles importer with time permitting over the past month.
Its currently in Alpha testing and is importing both the older scrobbles from the past ten years up to currently listening to.
It’ll be nice to be able to have the option to scrobble directly to my site in the future. Until now this will do me.
I will release it in Beta as soon as the admin area pages are tidied up.
The 8th song from Motorhead’s incredible “Rock ‘n’ Roll” album.
The 2024 YouTube music recap is here.
My top artist was Radiohead. I managed to be in the top 0.2% of listeners of Radiohead in both October and November.
My most played song was “Man in a box” by Alice in Chains apparently. I love the song but am surprised it was my most played one.
If The Emptiness Machine is a banger, which it is, then Heavy is the Crown is an ABSOLUTE FUCKING BANGER mate.
Wow.
This is really a new era of Linkin Park and I am here for it.
The song felt completely familiar of early Linkin Park, but completely fresh.
And Emily’s scream at 1 minute 48 seconds. Christ on a bike.
Wow.
Roll on the album release date. 🤘
Love it.
I was reminded of this banger of a song tonight from Dr Dre’s Compton Album.
One of my favourites of Eminem’s features with hard bars that aren’t for the faint-hearted.
Really digging the new Linkin Park song “The Emptiness Machine”.
And the new members are a welcome addition.
Emily fits really well in my opinion and her vocals on this song make me excited for Linkin Park’s future.
Yes, Chester is missed greatly, and I can’t imagine the pressure of taking his spot, but she’s doing great.
On their Livestream, a couple of the old songs were a little jarring for me. But only because it’s a new person singing them.
On the whole she brought something both reminiscent and fresh to the songs I have grown up loving.
If people hate the idea of lineup changes then tell them to check out Fleetwood Mac – they’ll lose their heads.
One of my favourite Paul Gilbert songs from his time in Racer X.
Absolutely incredible riffs throughout.
Beautiful haunting song.
Gave me similar vibes to parts of the Inland Empire and Mulholland Drive soundtrack.
There is a very specific song that it’s reminding me of — I just can’t remember what song it is. As soon as I remember I’ll update it here.
I think it is reminding me of “Llorando” — the French version of Crying from Mulholland Drive.
Completely forgot Cradle of Filth did a cover of Devil Woman. Incredible. 💚
Start of the Day’s playlist for 28th September 2020.
When the random music mix gives you a row of killer songs. 🤘
I’ve never been much of a fan of The Killers. However, this song is an absolute banger. Loved it from the first listen.
Something in this song feels haunting to me. I can’t quite place my finger on it. It could be the way that each of their voices meets in that ethereal plane that few bands have managed to reach.
Stopped into a church I passed along the way.
California Dreamin’ by The Mamas and the Papas
Well, I got down on my knees (got down on my knees) And I pretend to pray (I pretend to pray)
Something in this song feels haunting to me. I can’t quite place my finger on it. It could be the way that each of their voices meets in that ethereal plane that few bands have managed to reach – a sound that I associate with the golden age of music, at least in my opinion.
I remember watching part of a film in college film studies called “Chungking Express“, which featured this song prominently. I never really paid attention to that film, but I can’t help but feel I should go back and watch it now I’m older and… wiser?
