Scream-DC Special

I was late to catch up with these guys. What an energized, sprawling, untidy album. There's something sadistically funny about having Dave Grohl guest drum on a song that sounds like first wave ska.

This on headphones is one of the heaviest hip hop tracks ever.

I enjoy their early stuff. Much more original and interesting. Past "Love" I begin to lose interest.

Lyres - On Fyre

Ringing in my left ear.

It’s not bad, and it fades into the background after a minute or so, but it’s there.

Which is great. Incredible performance and before it got all 15min drummer showcases.

When I say I like Tool, I mean I like this…

Oh nice. Last week I picked up the DMZ record from a local store, and I was trying to tell the younger guy at the counter about the Lyres/DMZ connection and totally spaced out on “Lyres”, who I’ve seen numerous times. A real collision of ignorance-meets-forgetfulness.

The new Peter Gabriel. Has some meticulous, nerdy, idiosyncratic stuff I like, but some broad ballads that I fuckin hate. One of them sounds like it could be on the soundtrack for Toy Story 5.

If he'd stuck to his weirder impulses I might be embarrassingly into this thing.
