@1_800_4_probs @MadSciDorn I don’t know man, I’m a pretty filthy casual until someone turns me in a different direction. Big Empty is my favorite STP song with Interstate Love Song close behind. Fairly certain that puts me on a casual registry or something.

@neonfinality I think this means you and @MadSciDorn passed the test and I didn’t.

Anniversary day for this one. Not the most instantly listenable but it’s got its own very distinct sound and feel. Reminds me of very specific days, one of those time warp records.

@1_800_4_probs *song starts chill almost lounge style* {chorus} I TOLD YOU FIVE OR FOUR TIMES! I TOLD YOU FIVE OR FOUR TIMES! I TOLD YOU FIVE OR FOUR TIMES! I never got into that album but that shit had me laughing. Cool song too, first time I’ve ever heard it.

Also: this record contains what I consider a “test song”: a song so bad it can’t not be intentionally trying to weed out casual fans. That song is “Art School Girlfriend”, easily STP’s worst effort.

I’m off on the adventure

@oldyzach Shoddily done, but I had to.

Want to hear the most annoying sound?

More practice. Electronic drums just have a weirdness when I go into a slow tempo. Probably has to do with note velocity not matching what I want to do, which is bring the dynamics down. It throws me off tempo which sounds pretty bad to my ears.

@fishquichee Purpose

Gun to your head name a reason to live

Kind of on fire tonight. Thought my switchblade was boned. Opened it up and logiced the fuck out of it. And yeah, I just make up words too.

As my life wanes and I feel increasingly irrelevant The ingenuity continues unabated

@HereOnMars_ Nicely done

Little quirks in life: Given a hand-me-down computer that I plan on using for recording music, already has software loaded on it Buy preamp, mixer, and a bunch of other gear Everything seemingly works and getting good tests Start a project Computer randomly crashes It’s around seven years old Can’t handle latest OS Can’t update any sort of patches or fix Figure it’s a lost cause, load up all my emulators and e-carts Play the fuck out of Super Metroid Hours upon hours Computer doesn’t crash Wtf? Idea Keep emulator running in background while recording music Computer doesn’t randomly crash anymore What a fucking dub Life

Kickin’ back, catching up on some cleaning and then recording. It’s a little windy but wouldn’t have it any other way. Hope everyone has a good Sunday.

@1_800_4_probs Both of those bands got so much play on their respective hit albums and then never did shit again.

@neonfinality Exact same situation with the Spin Doctors, TBH.

I fucking hate this band.

@1_800_4_probs Fuckin’ a. I feel like dude almost (or does) has a slight lisp that makes his vocals annoying, I absolutely agree with you on that.

@neonfinality Most of the time my answer would be that "this record relates to some bad time in my life and I've got a bad association blah blah blah" In this case the singer's voice and vocal delivery just really really annoy me and I've heard the singles from this record ten billion times.

@1_800_4_probs Love that stand-up. Prime Chris Rock imo.

Can we get Stevie Wonder a peek?

I have a love/hate relationship with gimmick bands. But when they’re this well done, with subject matter that I grew up with, I love it.
