F O U R T H E Y E

FInally got around to watching Deadpool. Had it's moments, but ultimately a little flat and predictable for me. 6/10 Ah, man...I'd been looking forward to checkin this one out in a week or two. All the hype had me expecting a good & fun movie. I guess it's always better going in with lower expe...

'Victoria' was definitely a trip. Sometimes boring, often uncomfortable, but quite an accomplishment...especially considering it was all one take.

Thanks for talking it up you two. I don't think I would have watched it otherwise.

Tool - "A/Descending" + Official Visuals 2016

And that's all it takes to make me consider ditching responsibilities, disregarding my rule of avoiding music festivals, and consider going to one of these rumored upcoming shows...should they be announced.

Double post...because I think it's well deserved. Enjoy:

Out today, and so worth a listen (or two, or three):

So close, yet so far...

No idea about Monster Mash, but I think that bands headlining the same festival two years in a row is pretty rare.

Yeah, that makes sense.

Is there going to be another Monster Mash Festival this year? If so, how likely would they be to play it again?

edit: And now I'm imagining a bunch of Tool fans smashing their lenticular key chains looking for something hidden inside today.

The first episode is a lot weirder and wackier than the rest. It's still pretty weird and wacky but the later episodes do calm down a bit. Having watched the episode last night I actually read the AV Club interview with Bamford. It helped me understand the show a bit more: http://www.avclub.com/art...

Lady Dynamite, the new Netflix show starring Maria Bamford and created by Mitchell Hurwitz (Arrested Development) and Pam Brady (South Park), is pretty damn good. I finished up the first season earlier today and enjoyed it quite a bit. I'm not sure what they'll do with a second season, but I want t...

Hmmm...okay...if you insist...I'll check it out...

Doom looks like a lot of fun. Now I just need an updated console, the game, and some free time.

I wasn't planning on seeing Captain America: Civil War, but I ended up getting to go to a free screening tonight and...wow! What a fun and well made movie. I thought The First Avenger was alright and that Winter Soldier was better (although I honestly don't remember much of what happened in that one...

Blair was spoiling us there for a while, getting them out at the beginning of each month.

Not that there's really anything to report at the moment it seems.

Wow, the layers and depth of this album is beautiful. Nothing really upbeat on this album but I really enjoy the first full listen. Like all Radiohead albums (somebody said earlier) with more listens it will grow on me. After my full first listen, it's definitely a lot more of a subdued experience ...

Ah...found a link for the BBC's Listening Party. Checking it out right now.

UndKeineZwEier wrote:Yeah, that would have been nice.

What are your thoughts on the album at this point?

If ordering the CD directly from the band (with the $10 shipping fee) included an instant MP3 download I'd do it.

Oh well...patience, patience...

Looking forward to giving this one a listen sometime in June when the CD becomes available.

Yes, I'm a dinosaur.

Another great track from the upcoming If These Trees Could Talk album, The Bones of a Dying World: “Earth Crawler”

Hey, look at that. A new Radiohead song and accompanying video.

Wicker Man for the win.

So from the "could be just a coincidence" files Aaron Harris former Isis drummer and current Danny's drum tech) has just mentioned on Facebook he's had to cancel his Bali holiday in September, the timing of which just happens to be the same as the two Riotfests (the first two weekends in ...

If they didn't have an upcoming tour and all this started to happen, I think it would be an interesting way to announce the end of the band.
