    sad, beautiful, tragic: the n&g taylor swift thread

    Holy shit. I read a bunch of “surprise it’s a double album” posts on Reddit and thought, “makes sense. This thing is an hour long”. But, I’m learning here that the ‘double’ portion of ‘double album’ is another hour? I don’t know if I can do it. I’m not gonna make any definitive statements...

    I went straight Extended Mix as well. The Silver Cord song ends just as I’m really starting to get really into it, so I’ll be excited for the longer version of that.

    Same here. Listening now. Great sounding, quiet pressing. The drums really hit. Converge has really grown on me. I still don’t like Supercell much. Witchcraft has went down a few pegs, as well. I feel like that odd-time drum beat would be used to better effect if used more sparingly. The song...

    What in the hell are those prices? Did Lucille Bluth set those prices? 😂

    Now I’m trying to remember what version I got. I looked through old emails but none of them tell me which version. Oh well. I don’t think it was Flamethrower and, if it was, I’m fine waiting a few more weeks.

    Gonna need a few listens on this one. Lot of time signature fuckery. Some works some doesn’t. There are at least 4 certified solid amber bangers on here. Can’t get into Supercell, though. Gonna listen again, then sit it down for a few days and come back. Ice, Death, etc didn’t grow on me for...

    Since a blue idiot with 7% screen-time over two films made me tear up, I'm guessing 'yes'. "I'm Mary Poppins, y'all!"

    Seconded. Just got the Wal-Mart version last week and it sounds fantastic. If the Target is the same cut, then it is, indeed, a no brainer.

    Pressed in Italy. It is really easy to tell the difference between this and the German pressing since it’s a big white sticker on the back of the jacket. It’s just a really bad pressing. So much surface noise & crackle throughout both sides, and a constant low rumble between songs, as well...

    The Super Thread - All Things Marvel/DC/Etc

    I'll throw some quick thoughts out there. It's a tough movie to form my opinion on, because there is the undercurrent of real death just below the surface of most scenes, and out in the open on others. Had they just showed one picture of Chadwick Boseman I would have been verklempt, so it's hard...

    Well. Changes is pretty great, huh? So far the stand-out section is No Body into Gondii. Two songs that have some of the least Gizz-sounding pieces, but are still very much Gizzy. Kind of wild how they keep adding elements to their repertoire and making them feel right at home with the rest of...

    After one listen-through of Ice, Death…. I can say it’s firmly slotted in the “fine” category. Good, but not blowing my doors off. Enjoy the atmosphere of it all and the instrumental sections. Almost wish this was a solely instrumental album. Definitely need time to let this one grow, though...

    If Octopath Traveler is still on there, it’s a gem, too. Not sure if you’ve played it, but it’s worth a look for the art style alone.

    To add on to this; the good news for us is that we're in a time that bands can just put out music. They can connect directly to their base and give us more, more, and more. It's never been easier to record. It's never been easier to distribute. It's never been easier to cut out the Record Label...

    I'm the same way most of the time. The reason I don't like the breaking weapons in BoTW is because of how weak they are. I understand not wanting the player to rely on one weapon or two, but I really don't think it does that. It just makes me carry 5 of the same sword. I'd much rather them make...

    Wow. As soon as I read "Biden says..." in the title my mind automatically went to worst-case scenario, because I have been programmed to think that way in the last 5-or-so years. The fact that it ended with something that could be optimism is a new feeling for me, right now. Haha. Hope it's good...

    Breath of the Wild is my favorite game of all time. I don't like the breaking weapons or the rainy climbing, but I have rarely experienced such a sense of wonder and exploration in any medium. For anyone that likes the environment and exploration, I implore you to look into getting a...

    I have a friend who just straight-up quit the rail industry about 8 years ago. They had something called an Extra Board where you were pretty much on-call all the time. If a full-time Engineer called off or had a scheduled day off they would call you based on what number you were on the Extra...
