I couldn't afford it when they had the LP release of Lurker of Chalice's first record on Southern Lord in Flashback in Crouch End a while back (because it was like £70), but I finally managed to get a copy on CD today.

in the street behind mine there's a couple of houses with Hallowe'en decorations up, and then there's like this one house with an abandoned pram out front, and I was like, oh, that's dark, that's probably the best one... and then I realised it wasn't for Hallowe'en, it was just rubbish, and my brain was just a horrible, horrible place to be.

Watching the dance shot PV, I sort of want to learn Sayu's bit, but the camera like exclusively focuses on Tanaka Reina, which, fine, she's the centre, but, you know, dance shot stuff should be objective.

I keep thinking about trying to learn the choreography to One・Two・Three, but I'm not sure I'm ready for that yet.

I don't really like Ghost, I think a lot of their stuff is a little too close to dad rock, and with my Gen X posturing, I absolutely resist that, but, gosh, they have amazing lore, like fucking hats off to them. https://youtu.be/7Gr63DiEUxw

game trailers that don’t show you gameplay can go fuck themselves

let's take a moment to appreciate how UADA are probably one of the best new wave of black metal bands to come out of the US right now. https://youtu.be/gYgKWD_RCDI.

"Ladies and gentlemen... Cliff Burton."

imagine a world where Metallica hadn't shit the bed after Ride the Lightning.

"I shall go into a hare,
With sorrow and sych and meickle care;
And I shall go in the Devil's name,
Ay while I come home again."

two things re-watching it: firstly, I will be saying "oh la la, a way a way a way." secondly, please hire me Blockberry, to write entire novels about LOOΠΔ lore. Like I feel i could write a good 60,000 words on alt. dimension eternally repeating Choerry alone.

I will watch again though, just for that slow release from the bridge.

like, if it had been all moon dancing alternate universe witch cult, I would totally have been all up for it, but the first two minutes are a real mix of very familiar tropes, and, you know, I love the '90s as much as any girl, but as a single it doesn't do enough with the constant callback to '90s dance tracks, like C+C Music Factory stuff.

I'm not slamming them, because, gosh, they're probably the most innovative k-pop unit of the last decade, but I just kind of want more magic, less flex.

i feel it takes until 2:32 and the bridge to really feel like some of that pre-Hi High magic.

mixed feelings about that new LOOПΔ track.

Now boarding for Vampire Airlines flight to Mild Suggestiveness.

and in case you ever thought to yourself that there really should be more crossover between flight attendants and fucking vampires, well, don't worry, PASSPO☆ have got a song for that too. https://youtu.be/ICMUw7DPKjY

i would absolutely wear this outfit. Like, just to work and stuff. Just whenever, wherever.

https://youtu.be/D6HO30x54bk it's there right? it's not just me, there's a definite line to be drawn between this ℃-ute song and PASSPO☆.
