    You've really spoiled me here :D

     

    Well know I have a new artist to delve into, much appreciated!

     

      :grin: Depending on which 'side' of his output you'd like to explore more, I'd suggest looking at Scott 3 and Scott 4 for his more baroque stuff, and Tilt and The Drift for his latter-day, more experimental work. Either way I think you're in for a treat. :p Lemme hear your thoughts when/if you do!

    Just got back from seeing Magma live... This is what going to church should be like. Transcendent doesn't begin to cover it, it's like looking right into the aleph.

     

    They did play the entirety of this, amidst other things:

    Against stupidity we have no defense. Neither protests nor force can touch it. Reasoning is of no use. Facts that contradict personal prejudices can simply be disbelieved - indeed, the fool can counter by criticizing them, and if they are undeniable, they can just be pushed aside as trivial exceptions. So the fool, as distinct from the scoundrel, is completely self-satisfied. In fact, they can easily become dangerous, as it does not take much to make them aggressive. For that reason, greater caution is called for than with a malicious one. Never again will we try to persuade the stupid person with reasons, for it is senseless and dangerous.

    Saw a few artists live tonight, including Gilles Peterson, Pantha du Prince and Sigur Rós. Pretty damn cool shows!

    The ​Wolfe Tones were one of my dad's favorite bands, and he introduced me to them when I was a kid. There was a particular song he had me listen to, the Four Seasons, about the turning of the seasons and time running out and being forgotten. I liked the song, but didn't really have much appreciation for the band itself. I gave them another chance recently, and discovered some more songs I like by them, and I had planned to send him the song near his birthday earlier this year but decided against it for a couple of reasons. Still feel crappy that I never sent it to him before he killed himself. Don't think it would've changed anything, but it still is just a crappy thing.

    Pantha Du Prince is one of the best minimal techno producers around.

    I almost posted this in The Metal Thread, but I figured that this isn't what Katphood was going for.

     

     

    In my mind, without a shadow of a doubt, the greatest hair metal song ever.  I kind of hesitate to call it hair metal, since that carries a negative connotation of a song being weaksauce, and this song is anything but weak, it rocks hard as ****.  The slow section in the middle with the build toward a screaming guitar solo is amazeballs.  Also, peak Tawny Kitaen  :w00t:

     

    Maybe the best way to put it is that this was not an actual hair metal song, but rather an awesome song that hair metal songs were pale imitations of, including latter Whitesnake songs.

     

     

    Agreed 100%.

     

    Probably the best jukebox moment of my last year's bar adventures was when I played this song (for the first time since probably the 90s). Surprisingly, pretty much everyone over the age of 35 rocked out hard to this tune (most of the younger folks had never heard it). Surprisingly only because I played it in a bar that usually has ****ty hip hop on these days, and generally no one there rocks out to anything. In other words, this genre of music doesn't usually fly there. It flew, and hard. Changed the entire tempo of the place for the rest of the night.

     

    If you've never listened to the Donington show, I highly recommend:

    From night 8 of The Baker's Dozen

     

    The end of a unique and phenomenal Harpua > Also Sprach Zarathustra (4K fan shot)

     

    The perfect follow song.

     

    I was there. Best run of shows I've ever seen, and possibly ever will as such a thing will probably never happen again. So many many great moments, this was one.

    ^This is worth your time.

    Just what do you think you're doing?! You dare to come between me and my prey? Is it a habit of yours to scurry about, getting in the way and causing bother?

     

    What are you still bothering me for? I'm a Knight. I'm not interested in your childish games. I need my rest.

     

    Begone! Lest I draw my nail...

    I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"*
