Working my way through DEATHs catalog at the moment. Started with The Sound of Perseverance, almost done with Human, next on to Individual Thought Pattern

I know what you will be listening to...

Fictional 'G.I Joe: A Real American Hero' Metal Band Cold Slither Are ...

https://www.theprp.com/2025/03/18/news/fictional-g-i-joe-a-real-american-hero-metal-band-cold-slither-are-set-to-release-an-actual-album/

One of my favourites. Just a beautiful song, and put to so much good use in Geek Media.

I'm stupid for listening to this on repeat as I've been "stuck" on a girl for years now, which is dumb, so I'm being stupid, lol

One of those days. So it’s the John Williams’ Superman theme.

Not because I consider myself a superman. But because of that bit where the main refrain is repeated, ever more stringent, not once, not twice, but thrice.

If even Superman has to dig deep to double and then triple his efforts on a bad day? Why shouldn’t I?

Just got in Arch Enemy's new album-blood dynasty

Been on a Rammstein kick lately. Der Meister kicks so much arse.

Clem Burke of Blondie has passed away at 70.

So here’s him going HAM on Dreaming.

We've inherited a lot of vinyl records over the years from various family members, and it struck me when I was rearranging the lounge room yesterday that there is a bit of stuff in there that I haven't got around to listening to, and in some cases have no idea what it's even like. So I'm taking advantage of having the house to myself for the weekend to start working through the collection from A to Z...

Currently listening to the Alan Parsons Project 'Pyramid' LP.

There will always be time in my day and my life for a bit of Pulp.

My dad recently got a whole swath of his old records and cassettes out of the roof where they'd been stashed for some years. We found some absolute ripper albums we'd all forgotten about. Lots of Australian rock/punk bands for the 70's/80's. It was really quite heartwarming to see my dad getting so excited about stuff he hadn't heard in probably close on two decades.
I have lots of very fond memories of listening to the Muppets and Monty Python records when I was a kid. I was even allowed to take one in to school for show-and-tell one day. It's amazed me even then that in the middish '90s so few kids knew what a record was.



I've been listening to Gyroscope. A fething awesome band from Perth. They were a band that I had heard a few of their songs over the years and never clicked with me. It wasn't until I heard them live for the first time about 3 years ago that I realised what I'd been missing.

I had some fun a few months ago reminiscing with a couple of old high school friends when I dug out a couple of cassettes that were more or less the soundtrack of our senior years (Crowded House and INXS, for anyone wondering). I have a crateload of old cassettes to sort through at some point - most are copies, and I'm not expecting them to have weathered the passing of 30-ish years particularly well - but the tape deck is currently out of action.


On the record front, I've reached the 'C's... and just discovered JJ Cale's 'Naturally' LP, which I had somehow never listened to before. The influence on Dire Straits is unmistakable. This one will go on high rotation, I think.

Was introduced to this from a Sseth Tzeentach video (can't remember which one, could've been his his Kenshi review, maybe?) Anyway, it's so delightfully cheesy, especially the monolog about the "monsters out there". Love it, lol.

Two awesome anime songs back-to-back, from Gundam Wing...

Think I’ve shared this before.

But this was a track played at my Dad’s funeral. And frankly it’s a banger with a solid message.

There’s nowt wrong with planning for the futures. In fact there’s a lot to be said for it. But never, ever, ever forget to live in the moment.

@SamusDrake
