List of sh characters and the lyric/song u associate with them when 👀👀 /lighthearted
Oh anon I LOVE YOU for asking this let’s fucking go
I will start by saying that their general sound and lyrics just remind me of the entire series because they have this warm, fun but nostalgic magical feeling to them but here are SOME more specific songs and lyrics by OMAM that remind me of Sep heap:
1. From Finner just makes me think of the time Nicko, sep and jenna spent in Aunt Zelda Cottage’s in Magyk :’)) Like I can see on their way in and our of the marshes and running around and exploring and playing with the boggart and chatting with Marcia to these lyrics:
"We came here on his back
And we caught your eye
The salty ocean wind
Made the seagulls cry
The rocking of his house
Had me holding on
But I knew that I was safe
From there on out"
(...)
"And we are far from home
But we're so happy
Far from home, all alone
But we're so happy"
2. I feel like Lakehouse should also be in a Magyk playlist! It just...makes sense.
3. I straight up had series of drawing planned based on some lines from Human it would be something like this:
(…) "Cage me like an animal"
[Simon as a prisoner in the Supreme custodian’s rooms. He’s on the floor handcuffed to a pipeline. He is slightly battered and beat and is looking upwards disdainfully] (This could also be Marcia captured in the dungeons but I think Simon’s humiliation has more weight on the story)
"A crown with gems and gold"
[Queen Cerys’ crown on top of the Supreme custodian’s head. It changes abruptly to an image of the same crown on the floor with blood splashed over it.]
"Eat me like a cannibal"
[Stanley trapped in a cage. He’s leaning back with fear in his eyes as the shadow of a man looms over him]
"Chase the neon throne"
[Dom Daniel in front of the wizard tower. He’s looking up and smiling]
4. Six Weeks has Forest Heap and Marwick vibes. I will not elaborate.
5. Your bones just has a lot of Queste vibes, especially when Sep, Jenna and Beetle are on their way to the house of Foryx and Snorri and Nicko are just trying to stay hopeful that they will get back to their time.
6. Wolves Without Teeth is a trauma song imo and it makes me think of Septimus and Marwick having Young army nightmares. LIKE,,,
"You hover like a hummingbird
Haunt me in my sleep
You'll sailing from another world
Sinking in my sea, oh
You're feeding on my energy
I'm letting go of it
She wants it
"And I run from wolves, ooh
Breathing heavily
At my feet
And I run from wolves, ooh
Tearing into me
Without teeth"
7. Sloom is a song for a recovering Simon finding peace within himself and his love in Lucy can I get an amen? Amen.
8. Black Water is for Nicko and Syren. Hello??
"Swallowed by a vicious, vengeful sea
Darker days are raining over me
In the deepest depths I lost myself
I see myself through someone else"
SO...
Tumblr media
Thank you for your time.

April in Books
Tumblr media
The Shadow Saint: 5/5
I didn’t love, love, love it like I loved its predecessor (thank you to @an-ace-of-hearts​ for making me buy it, by the way). It was a little slow to begin with and unfortunately we saw less of the ghouls, which are (despite giving me the creeps) my favourite part of this world, but the latter half was brilliant as usual. It really helped that the last plot twist completely blew my mind, although this book also contributed to a very vivid nightmare so take that as you will.
The Great Gatsby: 5/5
Please explain to me why we do Of Mice and Men for GCSE when we could do this? I mean it has all the things teachers love about OMaM - unlikeable characters, depression, character death, etc. except that the writing is beautiful and it actually has a clear message.
Sharpe’s Sword: 4/5
I just picked this up for a little fun and it delivered. I mean sure it’s the army in the 1800s which means there are some pretty chilling moments which make you very relieved you aren’t living Sharpe’s life but other than that it’s pretty much all in good fun.
The Picture of Dorian Gray: 5/5
So morbid and so, so beautifully written. Again, horrible characters, but lovely prose and there is a pretty solid message that you don’t need to strain your eyes to see. Also, Basil Hallward is my underappreciated cinnamon roll who should not have to suffer.
The Toll: 5/5
As usual, this book was weird, funny and really easy to read, despite it being 600+ pages long. It didn’t end quite how I expected and I’m still beaten up about certain things, but ultimately it was an incredibly satisfying ending (although there was a bit near the end when I was far too stressed out).
All Quiet on the Western Front: 5/5
For some reason, I did not expect the book to be as good as the film, but it’s way better, as I see it. The way the thoughts and landscape are described is just heartbreaking. Again, where is this book in our English course?
The Bell Jar: 5/5
This book was good in a very specific way. It’s terribly depressing and I really wouldn’t recommend reading it unless you’re in a very happy place (unless you don’t want to ruin your happy place in which case keep it away altogether) because this is just so intensely morbid that sometimes it hurts.

Dear Bands,
I don’t care if you have a large fan-base or a small fan-base, if you're heavy or pop.  None of that matters, what matters is that you still look after yourself.  Your music and influence can affect many, many people, and you are always there for your fans.  But even though your fans are there for you there are still some things we want you to know.
You may feel you have to live up to be this perfect, hero-like image but you don’t.  You are still human, you still have emotions, you still get stressed out and down.  Your true fans know you can’t be perfect (even though you actually are in our eyes). 
You may face depression, anxiety, fear, addiction; you may face times when you don’t want to make music anymore.  You are still strong though, you give others words of encouragement when you need them yourself.  
You will make it through whatever you are going through, even if you have to leave the band, or stop making music.  Your health should come first for you.  You may value your band-mates or fans over yourself but you can’t help them when you need help yourself.  
I’m writing this because band members are human too, fans seem to forget this sometimes.  You are imperfect but that’s okay.  You don’t need to be perfect.  I want you to know it’s okay to put yourself about your music, we all understand.  Just keep yourself healthy and fight what you're going through.  Don’t give up.  
If you face something physical stopping you from doing what you love it will be okay.  Your fans and band-mates will forgive you and understand. Just make sure not to push yourself past your limits.  
Your fans, band-mates, family, and friends love you.  I promise it will be okay. 
Love,
One of your fans 
P.S. You are loved, never forget that.

Hokaloh News Updated: 8 Perlawanan Paling 'Kotor' Dalam Sejarah Piala Dunia | Berita Hokaloh News
https://hokaloh.news/sukan/8-perlawanan-paling-kotor-dalam-sejarah-piala-dunia-berita-hokaloh-news/
Perlawanan ketika berlangsungnya perlawanan Piala Dunia biasanya tidak dapat lari dari dicemari dengan pelbagai insiden kekasaran yang memaksa pengadil melayangkan kad malah, ada juga insiden-insiden yang tidak disedari pengadil terutamanya apabila para pemain cuba bermain dengan siku.
Mari kita lihat beberapa perlawanan yang dianggap paling kotor dalam sejarah Piala Dunia.
1. Portugal lawan Brazil, Piala Dunia 1966
Piala Dunia 1966 merupakan satu detik manis bagi England kerana dapat menjulang Piala Dunia di tanah air mereka sendiri.
Tetapi bagi Pele, ia sesuatu yang mahu dilupakan beliau kerana pada edisi ini, Brazil tersingkir ketika di peringkat kumpulan.
Pele yang diragui tahap kecergasannya semasa bermain menentang Bulgaria disahkan cergas untuk membantu Selecao menghadapi ancaman The Navigators.
Dan perlawanan itu dianggap penting terutama selepas Brazil tewas di tangan Turki pada perlawanan kedua.
Menyedari betapa pentingnya perlawanan ini, jurulatih Vicente Feola menukar barisan pertahanan dan penjaga gol serta mengambil risiko menurunkan Pele.
Perlawanan yang berlangsung di gelanggang Everton, Goodison Park ini menyaksikan Pele sentiasa dikasari Joao Pinto sehingga menyebabkan beliau terhincut-hincut dalam perlawanan.
Perlawanan berakhir dengan kemenangan 3-1 memihak kepada Portugal dan mereka berjaya mendapat tempat ketiga dalam edisi itu.
Bagi Raja Bola Brazil itu pula, Piala Dunia 1966 seharusnya menjadi medan terakhirnya tetapi keputusan persaraannya dibatalkan dengan beliau mengetuai Selecao memenagi Piala Dunia 1970.
2. England lawan Argentina, Piala Dunia 1966
Jika Pele merasakan nasib malang menimpanya kerana ditimpa kecederaan, dia bernasib baik kerana pemain-pemain England seperti mendiang Sir Geoff Hurst dan Martin Peters pasti bersetuju dengannya.
Ini diakui sendiri pengurus England, Sir Alf Ramsey yang melabel pemain-pemain Argentina binatang kerana satu insiden membabitkan kapten mereka, Antonio Rattin enggan keluar padang selepas dilayangkan kad merah.
Pada perlawanan berkenaan, pemain-pemain Argentina dituduh melakukan taktik kotor seperti meludah dan memulas telinga pemain England.
Rattin kemudiannya dihalau keluar pengadil kerana selalu meleteri pengadil.
Ramsey turut mengarahkan pemain tidak bertukar jersi dengan pemain La Albiceleste selepas tamat perlawanan yang memihak 1-0.
Dan dalam terowong pemain pula, wujud kekecohan antara pemain kedua-dua negara.
Mereka bernasib baik kerana insiden berkenaan tidaklah sekecoh Pizzagate membabitkan pemain tengah Chelsea, Cesc Fabregas dan Ferguson selepas Manchester United menamatkan rekod tanpa kalah Arsenal pada musim 2004-2005.
3. Itali lawan Argentina, Piala Dunia 1982
Ini antara resepi yang selalu ditiru pihak lawan sekiranya pasukan mempunyai pemain bertaraf bintang dan legenda.
Tidak kiralah sama ada anda Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, Zidane atau Maradona, manteranya tetap sama:
‘Halang mereka dan anda halang mereka bermain’.
Dalam kes Maradona, Itali tahu sekiranya mereka mahu menang, maka Maradona perlu dihalang.
Dan tugas itu diserahkan kepada pemain pertahanan Juventus, Claudio Gentile.
Gentile yang berkebolehan bermain sebagai bek tengah atau pemain pertahanan kanan/kiri, merupakan individu yang paling sesuai untuk tugas itu.
Pada perlawanan berkenaan, Gentile melakukan 23 kekasaran ke atas Maradona dan bernasib baik pengadil memutuskan untuk tidak menghalaunya keluar selepas dilayangkan kad kuning pada minit ke-42.
Ironinya, orang yang bertanggungjawab menyebabkan La Albiceleste kalah ialah pemain pertahanan Americo Gallego yang dihalau keluar pengadil kerana menolak pemain dengan sengaja.
Argentina kalah 2-1 dengan Itali meneruskan kemaraan dan menjulang kejuaraan Piala Dunia.
4. Scotland lawan Uruguay, Piala Dunia 1986
Piala Dunia 1986 merupakan edisi Piala Dunia yang penuh dengan kontroversi.
Jika England menyumpah seranah pengadil kerana membenarkan jaringan gol Tangan Tuhan yang dilakukan Maradona, jiran mereka Scotland pula berang dengan kerenah Uruguay.
Pada perlawanan terakhir peringkat kumpulan, Uruguay hanya memerlukan seri untuk layak ke peringkat seterusnya.
Dan mereka berjaya mencapai matlamat berkenaan walaupun dipaksa bermain hampir 90 minit selepas pemain Sky Blues, Joao Batista dihalau keluar pengadil kerana melakukan terjahan keras ke atas legenda Scotland, Gordon Strachan.
Uruguay yang terdesak mahukan keputusan seri melakukan apa saja taktik termasuk kekasaran dengan tujuan mengganggu ritma permainan.
Dan ini menimbulkan kemarahan pengurus legenda Manchester United, Sir Alex Ferguson yang berkata, “Mereka tiada rasa hormat terhadap maruah orang lain.”
Pemain-pemain The Tartan Army turut menuduh pemain Uruguay memijak kaki mereka semasa menarik mereka berdiri semula.
5. Cameroon lawan Argentina, Piala Dunia 1990
Perlawanan membabitkan Indomitable Lions dan La Albiceleste yang juga perlawanan pembukaan kejohanan seharusnya memihak kepada Argentina yang ketika itu diketuai legenda Napoli dan Barcelona, Diego Maradona.
Tetapi, pihak lawan dilihat menggunakan kekuatan fizikal mereka mengatasi kemahiran teknikal yang dimiliki La Albiceleste untuk mendominasi perlawanan.
Hasilnya, Cameroon mengutip faul sebanyak 30 kali berbanding Argentina sebanyak sembilan kali.
Dan jika itu saja tidak mencukupi, dua pemain iaitu Andre Biyik dan Benjamin Massing turut dilayangkan kad merah oleh pengadil kerana melakukan terjahan keras dan berbahaya.
Walau apapun orang mahu kata berkenaan rekod disiplin The Indomitable Lions, Cameroon menang dengan keputusan 1-0 hasil jaringan penyerang Stade Rennes ketika itu, Francois Omam-Biyik.
Bagi peminat neutral, mereka menyukainya kerana Cameroon melakar sejarah sebagai negara Afrika pertama memenangi perlawanan ketika Piala Dunia.
Cameroon berjaya layak ke suku akhir tetapi ditewaskan England dengan keputusan 3-2.
Sementara Argentina pula berjaya layak ke peringkat akhir tetapi tewas di tangan Jerman dengan jaringan 1-0.
6. Belanda lawan Jerman Barat, Piala Dunia 1990
Jika Argentina menyumpah tahap kekasaran yang dipamerkan Cameroon, ini pula membabitkan pertembungan dua pemain legenda.
Pada perlawanan berkenaan, keadaan sudah menjadi tegang antara mereka berdua bila Frank Rijkaard dilayangkan kad kuning kerana melakukan terjahan gunting ke atas Rudi Voller.
Bila Rijkaard berjalan di sebelah Voller tatkala mahu mengambil sepakan percuma, beliau meludah ke arah Voller sekali gus menimbulkan kemarahan bakal pengarah sukan Bayer Leverkusen itu.
Selepas mengadu kepada pengadil, aduannya tidak dilayan dengan beliau juga dilayangkan kad kuning.
Dari situ, semasa sepakan percuma diambil, Voller berlaga dengan penjaga gol Belanda, Hans van Breukalen di mana tangannya terkena bola dan dikatakan sengaja menjatuhkan diri untuk mendapatkan penalti.
Rijkaard yang sudah hilang sabar memusing telinga penyerang Jerman itu dan memijak kaki Voller.
Untuk mengelak ketegangan antara kedua-dua pemain ini berterusan, pengadil Juan Carlos Loustau melayangkan kad merah kepada kedua-duanya.
Dan apabila mereka berdua menuju ke bilik persalinan, sekali lagi Rijkaard meludah ke arah Voller.
Akibatnya, media Jerman melabel legenda AC Milan itu sebagai Llama kerana insiden meludah Voller.
Bagaimanapun, tidak lama selepas itu, pemain tengah Belanda itu kemudian memohon maaf dan permohonan maafnya diterima Voller.
7. Portugal lawan Belanda, Piala Dunia 2006
Piala Dunia 2006 merupakan satu edisi yang mahu dilupakan legenda Perancis dan bekas pengurus Real Madrid, Zinedine Zidane kerana menanduk bek tengah Itali, Marco Materazzi semasa final kejohanan.
Tetapi, Zidane tidak keseorangan kerana perlawanan pusingan kedua membabitkan Oranje dengan The Navigators turut tidak terlepas dengan kontroversi.
Perlawanan tersebut menyaksikan layangan kad kuning dan kad merah paling banyak dalam kejohanan.
Dalam perlawanan tersebut, pengadil Rusia, Valentin Ivanov tidak teragak-agak melayangkan empat kad merah dan 16 kad kuning.
Pemain-pemain yang menerima kad merah ialah Costinha dan Deco (Portugal) dan Giovanni van Bronckhorst dan Khalid Boulahrouz.
Constinha mencetuskan kekecohan dengan melakukan terjahan berbahaya ke atas pemain veteran Belanda, Philipp Cocu sekaligus mencetuskan keributan kad merah.
Dan tidak seperti Zidane, legenda Portugal merangkap rakan sepasukannya di Real, Luis Figo bernasib baik tidak dilayangkan kad merah atas kesalahan menanduk pemain tengah Barcelona ketika itu, Mark van Bommel.
Portugal layak ke peringkat suku akhir dengan kemenangan 1-0.
8. Sepanyol lawan Belanda, Piala Dunia 2010
Empat tahun selepas apa yang berlaku di Jerman, jika ada pengadil menyangka apa yang berlaku bersifat sekali saja, mereka silap.
Ianya kembali berulang membabitkan pelaku yang sama, Belanda tetapi mangsa berbeza, Sepanyol. Ini berlaku pada pentas final Piala Dunia 2010 di Afrika Selatan.
Pada perlawanan tersebut, Belanda yang mengamalkan gaya permainan menarik sepanjang kejohanan mengambil keputusan meniru taktik Cameroon untuk cuba menjejaskan keupayaan pihak lawan.
Anda perlu ingat, ketika itu kita amat obses dengan gaya permainan tiki-taka yang diperkenalkan bakal pengurus Manchester City, Josep Guardiola dan ia menjadi identiti permainan bukan saja di Barca tetapi juga untuk kegunaan pasukan kebangsaan.
Pengadil Howard Webb terpaksa bertindak tegas dengan melayangkan 14 kad termasuk satu kad merah ke atas bek tengah Oranje, Johnny Heitinga.
Dalam tempoh 13 minit, lima kad kuning dilayangkan dan orang besi Hamburg SV ketika itu, Nigel de Jong bernasib baik tidak dihalau keluar kerana membuat sepakan karate terhadap pemain tengah Sepanyol, Xabi Alonso.
Mendiang Johan Cruyff menuduh Belanda bermain permainan anti-bola sepak dan taktik mereka langsung tidak berhasil selepas La Roja menewaskan Oranje 1-0.
Semoga memberi manfaat.

Fever Dream Beer
The Fever Dream beer is in stores in Iceland! This raspberry and licorice flavored sour is a collaboration between Borg Brugghús and OMAM, and was first introduced at OMAM’s pop-event at Kex Hostel during Iceland Airwaves in November 2019. Those of us that were there (including three OMAM Army admins) can attest that it’s quite good.

If I am being honest. What we had and what I did has been the base for how I've lived my life since. You are still at The top of every mountain I climb or ever will climb. I now know what love is. If you weren't the halo in the sun I don't know what I would become. I love you and...Im so sorry. I tell people what I did because they deserve to know. I know I don't deserve it. But I'll be damned if I don't get to apologize to you in person. But I don't deserve to even be on this planet anymore. I'm sorry. Every fucking day I think of you. When I wake up. When I go to sleep. As I sleep. While I drink my coffee. Every time I see a rock star. Every time goal hear a papa roach or halestorm or bmth or Omam song. When I shower. When I tell other girls anything at all Its you. Always has been. And I hope I never forget your face. Your voice is a ghost. The last time we played on the grass in front of your house is still fresh in my memory. I can smell your perfume. Your hair. Still I remember what your kisses were like. And how you hugged me when I saw you for thanksgiving. I want you to know I still love you. Because I don't know when I'll die. I joined the army....it feels amazing. I have camp boots at home. I listen to country everyday. And jack makes me happy because it was your favourite. Because it made your tummy warm. I shouldn't have cheated on you. I still hate myself. But thats not hard to live with. The first two years were the hardest. I couldn't sleep didn't eat became a drug addict an alcoholic. I got into college which was cool but I couldn't bare hearing your name everywhere and seeing you and n everything. I stopped gong outside as much as possible after I turned 19. I still have your mix discs you gave me with sleeping with sirens songs on em. They make me happy. I used to hate quellin quins voice CE but now I see your eyes when I here them play. And I still have teal green paint on my red vans shirt from when we painted your room. And I have the camp under armour hoodie. It always smells like you. I hope you are okay darling.

I had the privilege to see Of Monsters and Men live in Manila last May 12!!! I was just so excited because I love this band to death!!! I was already there at about 1pm (show starts at 8pm lol) and I couldn’t wait to see them!! All the waiting was worth it! They sound so much better live than on album and Im so glad that their show was the first real concert I attended :D
