In most peoples eyes, blink 182 is this fun little band that wrote all the small things and their drummer is now wheeling a Kardashian (or sheās wheeling him and devouring his soul, who knows) But people forget that after the breakup in 2004. Tom Delonge, frontman of blink 182 started his own āsupergroupā Angels and Airwaves. 2009 the sophomore album āI-empireā released. I regard it as the best production of all time. The synths, the vocal chain, the sampling, the ascending guitar riffsĀ soaked in Ā¼Ā delay. Itās larger than U2. It truly is some of the most inventive rock music Iāve ever heard. Soaring confidence.Ā Itās a strange thing to attempt to convey that this to anybody, but I promise itās some of the best shit ever.

can of bliss is a mainstay in the āhyperpopā umbrella of genres and subgenres alike, but their use of guitar in emo/post-hardcore styles sets their music apart from many others in this scene. this album is a beautiful retelling of a year of their life, and the album closer, while 12 minutes long, is one of the greatest tracks this genre has ever seen. this album also affirms my long-standing belief that furries and trans musicians make the best music.

current mood is experimental multi-genre tunes with unconventional structure. sotc has been one of the bands i come back to every now and then, and this is the first time ive listened to them again within months. they're this really cool underground artsy jazz/hiphop ensemble and i love their music videos. go listen if you want to feel disoriented. :3

āA man on twitter once said āMoby Dick is the biggest indicator of intelligence. Most people canāt even get through the first chapterā or something like that. I turned into an avid cetologist (new word. Cetology is the study of whales?) reading this book. Not a bad sentence in the entire novel. the greatest story ever told. Itās so fucking sick. It is my bible. 2 separate times in my life I have read this book to a girl and gotten laid because of it. The last time was an actual 3 way. Shout out Herman Melville and my friend Curtis Eggleston for forcing me to read this.

š1986 film starring Arnold Schwarzenegger. Nobody saw this film. I and 3 of my friends and 2 of my ex girlfriends have seen it. Itās a shakespeare level masterpiece. Action set pieces, 10/10, Arnolds WITTY AS SHIT one liners have never been more out of place, and the cinematography can only be compared to the love child of Tarkosvky and Roger Deakins high on crystal meth. Itās the sickest.
