Placebos latest album for the the music ask thaaang?

NEVER LET ME GO | PLACEBO

Opinion on cover design: complicated. i really like the visual of the cover, the glitch effects are cool and i tend to like visuals of colourful glass, sea glass included. the thing is, i looked up the photographer's website to see what else he had done and uh. this guy holds some opinions that i absolutely cannot agree with, so although i know the photo was one placebo got from a stock photo archive, and therefore i do not think any additional royalties went to this photographer, i cannot unequivocally and blindly say i like it. I do really like the cover, especially the editing touches placebo's team added, and i see what the band were trying to convey with an almost post-apocalyptic atmosphere, but the fact that the photographer's views on the world run counter to some of the things i believe placebo may be trying to convey within the album, it comes off as... kind of ironic? i'm torn.

Favourite song:  ohh i may need to relisten to the album to pick. some of my favourites include forever chemicals, surrounded by spies, and twin demons. i also really like most of sad white reggae, and when i first heard happy birthday in the sky, i both cried and got really excited hearing the meds leitmotif used in the track. if i were to narrow it down, it may be between surrounded by spies and twin demons.

Least favourite song: try better next time. brian molko's takes on environmentalism ... lean into questionable (and even unsavoury) territory. this past term, for a class, i wrote a breakdown of the major issues i have with the track.

Underrated track: twin demons. i have not heard anyone talk about it, like, anywhere, and it's really, really good.

Overrated track: i don't really know if any tracks on this are overrated, but if anything, it's try better next time. molko needs to take a critical look at his environmental takes and pessimism toward humanity and not just tout this song as one that exemplifies the feeling he wants the album to have.

Okay guys! Here is my recipe for the 🍰cheesecake🎂 I made last week! The nutrition🗒️ for one slice is also listed here for my macronutrient counters/food tracking friends💯 But keep in mind the brands I used to keep those carbs low! See pics for some help but over all this was SO EASY. Minimal ingredients for such a homey, satisfying, delicious treat that keeps you in ketosis... It's exciting when I try new recipes - I spent the first year on my keto journey always making Keto Brownies EVERY WEEK cause they gave me life, LOL. But, I think this year Keto cheesecake might be my thaaang. Thanks to my friend Becca for the idea to make this💕💕 . CRUST 1 1/2c almond flour. I use Costco's Almond flour because its the lowest carb (2 net carbs per 1/4th cup) that I have foudn anywhere. 1/4c of your fav powdered/confectioners zero glycemic sweetener (I used powdered Erythritol, or Swerve) 1tsp Cinnamon 6T butter, melted (butter is butter just use real butter and macros will be the same - no margarine here, ever!) . FILLING 48oz full fat cream cheese, room temperature (Brand: Philidelphia) 2c powdered erythritol (or the zero glycemic of your choice) 5 large eggs (or 285grams/about 7 medium eggs) room temperature 8oz sour cream room temperature (Brand: Dasiy) 1T Vanilla extract (I also added a few squirts of red food coloring to try to make it Pink for Valentine's day but I didn't add enough and it ended up being more of a peach color) . Pan used: 10 inch Springform Pan . Instructions: . Crust Spray pan with nonstick oil preheat oven 325. Mix crust dry ingredients, heat butter 20 seconds, add to bowl, mix. Press crust into bottom of pan and spread out, cool in fridge 20 min. . Filling Mix everything together in order listed. Pour into pan.. Bake on 325 or 40 to 50 min(I only baked mine for 30 minutes which is why it's a softer in the center). Outer edges will be firm but center will seem very giggly - its fine. Turn off oven and crack door and leave for 15 more min (I left mine like this for 30 minutes since I had only cooked it for 30 minutes but I'm not going to do that next time,I think I will cook it for the 40 or 50 minutes instead) *Rest in comments* (at Colorado) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8uto_CApjK/?igshid=ryhbsgs73yvk
