  1. Daily reminder that well known hentai artist Crimson was the artist for this
  2. I've been busy, so I was unable to direct week two, but let's make it happen now. I'll start PMing the people who put up this week's albums.
  3. I'm starting to figure that we should be less stringent on times, except for that on the next Friday, it's open season to start sharing your thoughts on the albums from the previous week. Great writing Dijon, I enjoyed reading your thoughts.
  4. You know, that is a good point, the way this album flows. I'd definitely agree with this. Anyway, because of Jenny Death coming out, I submitted another album for us to listen to at some point. Death Grips - The Powers that B Love them or hate them, I'm putting this one in the on deck area, because the industrial band fronted by an angry homeless man shouting at the top of his lungs in cryptic rythym is back. Of course, if you've ever run in hipster circles for music on the web for even a moment, you'll know about Death Grips and their shenanigans in their music, and the things outside of it. This new double album was technically being treated like two separate albums until Jenny Death (Disc 2 of this album) came out, since the first disc, Niggas On the Moon, was released in June of 2014. Nonetheless, I believe there's a reason why this was made as a double album, and as such, I believe it ought to be listened together as such. Stylistically, there's a logical progression to their sound, that, ironically, is a lot more polarizing than their earlier work like Exmilitary and The Money Store. Attached are the back and front covers.
  5. Electro Shock Blues was outstanding to me, stylistically I got a big Radiohead vibe, without the britpop element Radiohead has. Really felt like Ween meets the Pixies meets Radiohead for a lot of the album. I'm glad I grabbed this album, and I'd definitely listen again. Cancer For the Cure really stood out to me as their best song, it had energy behind the layers of cynicism found in the band's lyrics, and their musicianship was entertaining on that particular track even moreso than the others. The Eels are an entertaining bunch. Bottom Line: Adding this album to my library Run The Jewels II was the album I picked, and it's something I listen to a lot when working out. This album's extremely intense for a good deal of time, and that's the big draw to me. In comparison to other hardcore hip hop they're very conventional, but at the same time, I find they're also probably the most crass and gratuitous lyrically, in their field, as far as my experience has gone. Nonetheless, it's easy to overlook when the instrumentation kicks in, because you know what they're going for. The start of "Oh My Darling Don't Cry" is intense, and it's my number one running track. Bottom Line: This album keeps me on my toes on the track What's Going On by Marvin Gaye was alright. Frankly, I felt it was white noise more than anything, partially because the lyrics were so saccharine, and partially because the instrumentation sounded like music you would hear in a soundtrack when someone's trying to introduce your stereotypical hippie character. Mind you, it wasn't displeasing, it just didn't stand out. Nonetheless, I enjoyed Marvin Gaye's vocals, which were probably the strong point of the album. Bottom Line: I liked it, but I wouldn't listen again
  6. Every time I see the fucking word "sexism" I have PTSD flashbacks to oversensitive tumblrinas and their shit
  7. Therefore, I have the right to declare myself a fan of PAWG butts and nobody can decry this proclamation
  8. For the love of God, I hope this doesn't happen. I know the market's all wild about swiss-army knife gadgets that can do everything, but there are so many big risks, most of all, financially, when a company like Nintendo goes ahead and makes a foray into something like the phone / mobile market. They could potentially afford a failure, but most "on-the-go" type features that phones exhibit (calling, texting, etc.) aren't things Nintendo can provide by themselves, which is where I see the issues arising. Other companies have tried making innovations involving cell services, and so far, nothing has really stuck, and I believe that's reflective of their market, especially when you consider that the mobile market =/= the gaming market.
  9. I don't understand why everyone really knocks Sandler so hard. He's not the best at playing a role, but he's good at being himself, and while I can't say it's ever anything deep, his movies are generally still worth a few laughs.
  10. Sorry for the double post, but I'm bumping because the wavelength is getting loaded and I'm ready to start as soon as people start showing up EDIT: Starting on Run The Jewels II right now
  11. This is something I'm expecting to be "So bad it's good" like many other Sandler movies.
  12. At this point, I think let's just set Thursday as the day we share our thoughts, but Wavelength is there for those who can. In that case, I'll make an executive decision and say that 7 PM PST will be the time.
  13. Okay narrowed it down to 7 PM PST and 10 PM PST, and based on what I can tell here I think Thursday @ 10 PM PST is our best bet. Anyone opposed to this for whatever reason, say something now and we'll come up with a compromise.
  14. Okay, let's put it to a vote now: http://strawpoll.me/3898450/
  15. That's from 11AM-3PM my time, and I can tell you right now that on a Thursday, there is zero chance I will be able to get there in such time. What's wrong with going later in the day? I'd also like to add that if one of you can get the wavelength working, you won't need me to be there for this broadcast to happen. Let me know if you have any questions or issues with running it. I can listen to all these albums on my own, in fact, I've already gotten around to Electro Shock Blues. I just have to listen to Marvin Gaye and I've listened to them all for this week. Anyway, after the wavelength, feel free to start posting your thoughts on the albums.
  16. I didn't see a response for time until today, practically. Mind you, I live in Alaska so you guys post and see what I write later than I'd like. Anyway, chalk it up to getting started and let's start a tenative date for Thursday at 7 PM PST, pending feedback from the other members. Shoulda added a time to my original suggestions though.
  17. After Mariota's pro day, anyone else get the sense that the Titans really want him?
  18. Make a move on him. Get him in a place where he's relaxed with you, then go for it. I don't think I need to really say too much about this, but make sure he's warmed up to it BEFORE trying, most guys won't actually go for an out of the blue move.
  19. Giving my first listen to Electro-Shock Blues right now. Also, I'm thinking 5:00 PM EST for wavelength on Sunday's a good time. Still hoping that folks can do Saturday night, though.
  20. I think it's kinda funny that the Marvin Gaye album here happens to be freeleech on What.cd
