[VIDEO ID I FORGOT SORRY: Klim Kostin films his teammates while someone films him. First he films a sewerball game with a number of teammates including Ty Dellandrea, Tyler Toffoli, and Barclay Goodrow. Tyler Toffoli whiffs a a shot and points at the camera while his teammates laugh that Kostin got it on camera. The video cuts to Kostin filming, then back to Toffoli standing off alone, watching the game. The video cuts back to Kostin, then to a close up shot of Barclay Goodrow looking serious and chewing gum in the sewerball game. The video cuts to Kostin turning around to film the hallway behind him, then again to Macklin Celebrini approaching the camera with his tongue sticking out and shaking his head, before exiting the shot to the right. Behind him, the camera refocuses on Timothy Liljegren who poses with the hang loose sign with both hands and a serious expression. The video cuts back to Kostin, who is grining. End ID.][12/13: edited because I cannot tell bearded white men apart: it's Goodrow, not Kunin!]

Editorial Reviews   “each album always starts with a feeling that i try to shape into sound this time around the feeling was landing ( after my last album utopia which was all island in the clouds element air and no bass ) on the earth and digging my feet into the ground it was also woven into how i experienced the "now" this time around 7 billion of us did it together nesting in our homes quarantining being long enough in one place that we shot down roots my new album "fossora" is about that it is a word i made up it is the feminine of fossore ( digger, delver, ditcher ) so in short it means "she who digs" ( into the ground ) so sonically it is about bass , heavy bottom-end , we have 6 bass clarinets and punchy sub i would like to especially thank bergur þórisson and heba kadry side project , el guincho , hamrahlíð choir , soraya nayyar , clarinet sextet murmuri , siggi string quartet ensemble , emilie nicolas , serpentwithfeet viibra and last but not least : sindri and dóa . visuals were made by viðar logi , james merry , m/m , nick knight , andy huang , edda , isshehungry , tomi , sayaka , sunna , sara and heimir and my ever so loyal and magnificent team : derek , rosamary , catherine , chiara , hilma and móa “

Björk: Mother, Daughter, Force of Nature In Iceland with the experimental pop icon, digging deep into the triumphs and tragedies that birthed her remarkable new album, Fossora

“Fossora, the 56-year-old’s fungus-themed 10th album...” & “ At the album’s core are the hymn-like “Sorrowful Soil” and chamber-folk epic “Ancestress,” bold artistic strides that serve as profound tributes to her late mother, the environmental activist Hildur Rúna Hauksdóttir, who died in 2018. They instantly line up alongside the most heart-rending songs of her career. “

“You can brag about being an optimist all day,” she says, but as she got older, Björk admitted she was using her bright outlook to shut down tricky conversations. She confronts this tendency on “Atopos,” Fossora’s riotous opener. “Pursuing the light too hard is a form of hiding,” she sings, contrailing her voice over juddering bass clarinets. “Are these not just excuses to not connect?”

“She believes children can withstand more than their parents tend to think. “If you don’t know something, it becomes this taboo that gets a lot more energy than it actually has. So I’ve tried to share—with limits. I want to take the mystery off some of my choices.”

Björk remains a mother figure to hordes of very online fans, many young and from queer communities. Her fanbase routinely floods her social media posts with toxicity-free hype, exchanging trivia and recirculating YouTube classics like her charming explanation, in the late ’80s, of a TV set’s mysterious workings. Her cross-generational appeal, I suggest, is a rare source of good on the internet.

“I’m really blushing,” she says. “Do you think something of it has to do with the world finally being ready for matriarch music? I was just so happy for Kate Bush to get that international hit, ‘Running Up That Hill.’ I’m not saying we’re going to take over, but I feel like all the hidden matriarchs out there are just crying: Finally, we don’t have to hide.”

Hi, I don't know if you're still taking asks, but I was wondering if Hi! If you're still taking asks, do you know of a fic where - at some point - Viktor's laces snapped at a competition, and by complete coincidence Yuuri has an extra lace in his pocket and he becomes a meme online because of it? It was a canon-divergence fic??? Thank you so much if you are still taking asks. If you aren't it's all good.

Hi! Yes, this is an active blog. 😊 I have no idea what this fic is though so I hope my lovely followers could help.

So many music albums were released this month by different artists among them, these are the selected 5 album which is on the top chart this week, here are the songs check out the albums and add them to your playlist. Rina Sawayama - Hold The Girl The second studio album by British-Japanese singer Rina Sawayama is titled Hold the Girl. Dirty Hit issued it on September 16, 2022. The album's debut song, "This Hell," was made available on May 18, 2022. According to Paste's Jade Gomez, the album's lead single, "This Hell," a country pop song with "glam rock riffs," is a "thrilling empowerment anthem." She also pointed out that the song's opening line, "Let's go girls," is a nod to Shania Twain's similar introduction in her 1999 song "Man! I Feel Like a Woman!” There are a total of 13 songs on the album including Hold the Girl, Minor Feelings, This Hell, and so on. The album received ratings of 74% from users and 81% from critics. https://youtu.be/ikkfuGeAfYg Check in the full album> https://youtu.be/Zdr1AsgBFCU Björk - Atopos In order to give the Latin term fossore, which means "to dig," a feminine counterpart, Björk created the name Fossora for her upcoming studio album. The album's glitzy, fungal-themed artwork depicts the Icelandic artist's metaphorical descent into the ground, a process that was motivated by personal loss and epidemic isolation. The album's debut song, "Atopos," by Fossora, is driven by squelching, energizing rhythms that Björk has dubbed "biological techno," an apt description: Here, she creates a bizarre, joyful fusion of DJ Kasimyn of Gabber Modus Operandi's powerful beats, honking bass clarinets, and cooing backing vocals. The album received ratings of 84% from users and 80% from critics. https://youtu.be/9FD2mUonh5s Check in the full album>https://youtu.be/9FD2mUonh5s Jockstrap - I Love You Jennifer B Amazingly wild and creative experimental pop debut album by Georgia Ellery and Taylor Skye, whose seductive fusion of electronica, classical and theatrical strings, dance music, and clever, nimble sound combinations occasionally slip gleefully into reverse. Skye creates incredibly imaginative instrumentals and arrangements, while Ellery's voice soars high with a beautiful sweetness. The dreamy What's It All About? the organ-driven arrhythmic, squeaky whirl and swirl of Jennifer B with vocal samples. However, the crunchy-beat dance-music closer 50/50, as well as Concrete Over Water, a former Song of the Day, Glasgow, the oddball acoustic guitar and string arrangement that sounds like a psychedelic Joni Mitchell, and the vowel-pronouncing, crunchy-beat song of the day. And Concrete Over Water, of the most inventive and visually stunning debuts of the year. The album received ratings of 81% from users and 85% from critics. https://youtu.be/FfXwm3jwVbI check in the full album on Spotify https://open.spotify.com/album/4YFlC5Abaj48ERwaOPfpu8?si=JbWejWgtQ4msYVvm64BlTw Sudan Archives - Natural Brown Prom Queen The second album from singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Brittney Parks evokes frenetic energy that is at once soothing to the soul and crushing to the body with its inventive technicality and bold poetry. Outside of vocal talent, black women musicians rarely receive the recognition they deserve for technical ingenuity in music-making. Aretha Franklin was a furious arranger who understood just where to put the instruments that made up the framework of her successes thanks to her acute ear for melodies. The singer-songwriter dances with herself at her own party while serving as both the guest of honor and the headline act on her second album, Natural Brown Prom Queen. She is a one-woman band who, over the course of 18 lengthy tracks, exudes frenetic energy that is both physically and emotionally exhausting. The album received ratings of 79% from users and 81% from critics. https://youtu.be/eaY8kI0oEpA Check in the full album>https://youtu.be/dut4WcHiPHI Alex G - God Save the Animals Alex G, a musician, singer-songwriter, and producer from Philadelphia, first gained recognition in his teens by posting low-fi music on Bandcamp. This is the 29-year-old’s album, and on it, he is bolder, stranger, and more immersed in studio experimentation than ever before. He also embraces cooperation with his bandmates and his partner, string player, and vocalist Molly Germer. God Save the Animals, like all of Alex G's music, blends autobiography and fiction, with poetic refrains slipping in and out as he thinks about ideas of faith and hope in all their manifestations. Though there is a sweetness that occasionally verges on becoming cloying, he cuts through with chaos and levity. Overall, it is a rich and deftly organized work. The album received ratings of 77% from users and 82% from critics. https://youtu.be/JFaMCIVHz2I Check in the full album>https://youtu.be/JFaMCIVHz2I Read the full article

If I remember correctly they're named after a regiment in the canadian army called (or maybe that was called) the Maple Leaf regiment i.e. a proper noun making it leafs (sorry if your question was rhetorical, this is just in case)

i am pleased by this answer thank you
