Don’t ask me about my music taste unless you want a 6hr lecture on my favourite progressive metal bands.

Sikth - The Trees Are Dead & Dried Out Wait for Something Wild (2003)

Es sorprendente cómo un disco de metal progresivo tan técnico, corrosivo y de ritmos endiablados es a la vez tan absolutamente divertido. Si te suena de algo la voz de uno de sus vocalistas es porque Mikee Goodman se la prestó a un montón de personajes de Disco Elysium y dirigió su casting.

It’s yesterday’s game They’re playing 3D chess Above our heads right now Manoeuvring their pieces Into more optimal positions Calculating the optimum amount of patience To make that next worst nuke more deadly They’ve dropped 2 on human filled cities already I promise you I know they’re up there now Just like they hide them deep down below So you don’t listen To “Threnody to the Victims of Hiroshima and Nagasaki” Don’t listen to them Don’t listen to me Go! Listen! Mankind be vigilant Play Disco Elysium Again

I heard there are these things called “wombbats? (sp?) from a Ka’jitii trader. I think he said his name was “Ba’iik?” You know how weird they are with the shapes and 4 moons. 3/4 body rhyme, sharp tusks.

Prefer weave

Wombats on the Isle

Selene shines sweetly on the solitary isle

So free from tree for lack of forest’s foresight

You think the power is solid?

No, see her ripples reflect through each eco-pond

You do not yet know the number-death

That Natural Law will arraign to its side

Your zeros mean nothing to nullify

Inevitable

Boar screams

Frogs squeak

But even the lowliest of swine

Can move the Kinesis more than you

You are the ever constant self

Fulfilling victimhood

On you head is just a

Third eye to blind

In-animal

Un-life

Return to Sweet Earth

3, 5, and 9 for that ask game

hey!!!!

3. A song I'd choose to introduce someone to my favorite genre

okay, i like genre hopping. truth told, it's kinda hard for me to keep track of the minutiae of micro-genres, and i'm not really sure what genres most of my favorite songs fit into. that being said, i know i like djent (prog metal (prog rock (lyrical rock music) + heavy metal (loud distorted guitar solos)) + percussive guitar in aggressive rhythms). famously, djent is 'not a genre', but i can't think of a djent song i don't like. but how to get someone into djent?

wildfire, periphery. i say this bc i think trying to find something less aggressive would be disingenuous. i like songs with guitars and screaming, and this song is that. oh, that, or cracks of light by sikth. the lead singer for sikth is the VA for ancient reptilian brain (et. al.), so maybe that'd interest DE fans. that's how i got into this genre, anyways

5. A song you think most of my followers haven't heard before

DUNDONNELL. (hymn of the highlands, phillip sparke). i go nuts for a brass fanfare, and this is one of my favorites

9. A song in a language I don't speak

i have my problems with eurovision, but i've taken a shining to käärijä, who represented finland in 2023. i've been trying to learn finnish for the past sixteen years, but i never can stick to it for too long. i am finnish, at least on paper, and i like to pretend that listening to finnish pop music is a proper substitute for the family i've lost contact with if i had to pick one of his songs, yhtä vailla
