I'll be back in Byron tomorrow... just me and my lady.

I'll keep an eye out for him.

Anything you'd like me to pass along?

Yep how are they hanging dude.

Been missing Mowman on here, but was happy to run into him in person today!

Is this his theme song?

I know there’s some soy boys on here that don’t like him because he has personal agency, but ol Bakes is an absolute beast

 

[PoppedCorn]

Personal agency ?

DougalHoward update of the chilli stuff. Got a couple chillies growing but also bloody aphids. Bane of my existence these things. Don’t know how to kill them without also killing the plant

You could try a squirt of dishwashing liquid and water in a spray bottle if you haven't already.

99 sub-genres, but Screamo ain't one.



More polyrhythm than an orgy in a Tourette clinic.

Polyrhythms don't automatically make music good, they need to actually write good songs. I'm not convinced they've done that here - I was aware of Firefrost Arcanum years ago when it came out but never really got into it. Something like this has better musicianship, better production, but just fundamentally a better song:

Musk is looking more and more like an old Christopher Walken tbh

You're comparing 3rd wave Black Metal to Prog Death. Two entirely different sub-genres for starters.

Why someone has to scrounge for a single track that supposedly encapsulates the entire Metal genre is beyond me when what I posted clearly serves as an example of something rhythmically complex vs Rap.

Death is boring. It has no flavour, because in essence it's w***er Thrash. Am I doing it right?

So is rhythmic complexity the entire way you judge the merit of a piece of music? In which case presumably you should be listening to jazz - maybe Tigran?



Personally I think there's a lot of great music which isn't rhythmically complex, including a lot of fantastic rap and hip hop. I'm not sure why you'd rag on an entire genre for lack of rhythmic complexity when that's not even slightly the point of the genre.

He means refuse to get vaccinated because you don't trust doctors but a dude on the internet that hates muslims thinks it's a way to stick microchips in your head and make you infertile and that seems perfectly logical.

It's called banter with someone who listens to Rap, because 'beats'.

Any more urinary frivolity for today, slugger?

Knee has been healing up well. Still got the brace but getting in the gym and sauna has helped. Could be back to normal in a 6 week time frame rather than the 8

Funny enough my boxing coach and sparring partners have all done their ACLs or MCLs at some point too

I mean it just came across as elitism from someone who thinks their musical taste is better than everyone else's, but I guess you can choose how you present yourself to the world.

It is better than anyone else's, clearly.

Now that we've got that out of the way...
