Sounds like Depeche Mode

For those into synthesizerism, this was a nice hour or so of animated fun:

Happy new year, y'all!

RIP MF Doom

He's just abrasion-averse.

Some heroes don't wear capes.

So to answer my own question, I didn’t have to go back very far. That Sound was on Wild Mood Swings, but wasn’t on wish. But it was perfected on Bloodflowers.

Cure, Bloodflowers I am really enjoying the long form songwriting on this. The third song started (“the world is neither just nor unjust” caught my attention) and it felt like I was much further into the album than I was. I also noticed I was really enjoying the guitar tone. The big, expansive one, sounds like I’m watching them in concert. So I’m going backwards in their catalog until I figure out when it started, because I’m pretty sure it’s not on Head on the Door.

Much obliged! 🙏

I want one! Do they come in size “fathead”?

Incorrect. > The basic idea is that if the name (in the above example, “Jessie”) is the only thing in the world described by the identifier (“my oldest friend”), use a comma before the name (and after it as well, unless you've come to the end of the sentence). If not, don't use any commas.

Happy birthday to our lord and saviour, Ric! (party favour noise)

Survived Whamageddon2020!

Augsburger is sus. In related news, I survived Whamageddon2020! Just learned it was 00:00 of the 25th, not 26th, so I am feeling great relief and will probably sleep soundly tonight. Scammers notwithstanding. I hope he (the real Augsburger) is okay. Someone want to call him and make sure he's not lying in a ditch somewhere?

I'm not clicking any suspect links. I learned that 25 years ago.

Happy birthday, Ken! (party favour noise)

Just finished watching (more listening) Devin Townsend's Quarantine Concert No. 6, wonderful! Also, for metal heads:

More listening than watching:

I suspect that’s closer to how mine will turn out, since I’m like the opposite of Gordon Ramsay class. Please fax. Please and thank you. Also, French toast.
