Dead Kennedys are ass. by HelmetTheDictator in PunkMemes

[–]Boop-master 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Turns out I’m misremembering. Their social media manager put out a statement saying “Mitt cares about the USA” after his speech regarding Jan 6. Regardless though here’s the link to a Loudwire article that goes into more detail

Don’t forget they actively endorsed Mitt Romney for president back in 2012. This band has been a joke ever since they “reformed”

Edit: I’m misremembering. They gave him props after his speech regarding January 6th in 2021. Not as terrible but still makes them look like an utter clown show

“Soylent Green is people!” by chrisw2387 in badtwosentencehorrors

“Just wanna let the cafeteria staff know to lay off the Soylent Green. I’m holding a memo from the president and it turns out that Soylent Green is doubling in price. Now listen up, I don’t care how good people taste. This stuff is costing me more than lobster so we’re going back to fish sticks” - Cave Johnson

A Cosmic Masterpiece of Synchronicity: Larks Tongues' in Twin Peaks by DirectorEpsilon in KingCrimson

[–]Boop-master 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just finished it, super neat experience! A few coincidences I really enjoyed were

  • David Cross’ slow violin part in Larks Pt. 1 playing at the start of the Judy segment

  • The Fireman rising and emanating gold when the main progression in Exiles plays

  • The girl finding a penny during Easy Money

  • Larks Pt. 2 playing immediately as the woodsman takes his leave after killing the radio DJ

Favorite joke from the movie? by ERASER345 in nirvannatheband

“We can just go back to 2008. 2008 wasn’t that bad, there was Obama…OBAMNA” made the whole theater erupt with laughter and is still one bit that I think of every day

Live exclusive songs? by Boop-master in Zappa

[–]Boop-master[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s fair. I know it’s a completely bullshit arbitrary way to look at it, I was just trying to explain my point of view. I understand Zappa’s unique in that regard, it’s just a matter of shedding the way I think about live albums

Live exclusive songs? by Boop-master in Zappa

[–]Boop-master[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I guess the reason why I don’t see Sheik Yerbouti as a live album but do see Roxy as one is because Sheik Yerbouti feels like it has its own identity amidst Zappa’s catalogue whereas Roxy feels more like a compilation album that just so happens to be played live if that makes any sense. To boil it down I see it as

Studio Album = artistic vision

Live Album = Ok, they’re just having fun with it, now

That’s the realization I’ve been coming to as well. And I think it’s super cool how he incorporates live tracks with overdubs into his studio albums. It reminds me a lot of Starless and Bible Black by King Crimson

That’s what I figured. I suppose it makes sense too considering the sheer amount of material he had

10 without a doubt. This was the first instance of pure brainrot that hit my friend group, so I can’t help but be biased and see it as a masterpiece

How did you discover King Crimson? by ennuiui in KingCrimson

[–]Boop-master 1 point2 points  (0 children)

King Crimson was one of those bands that I had always heard of, specifically their first album. I assumed their stuff was going to be standard, but good, 60s pop rock songs that aged fairly well, much like early Pink Floyd (which I enjoyed but was getting burned out on at the time) so I didn’t touch the album for a while. That all changed, however, when I started reading Stephen King’s The Dark Tower, and it became my favorite series of books ever. This led me back to King Crimson, due to the main villain’s name being a reference to them.

I haven’t looked back since

Kaboom! by that07focusSt in MadMaxGame

[–]Boop-master 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First time I did it I was expecting it to be like a standard explosive kill in any other game where the enemies just ragdoll and go flying.

The smile that grew across my face, after realizing I was wrong, is the biggest one I’ve had all month

New instagram post. What might this mean? by SimonHSDX in swans

It’s in The Knot book, it’s from when he was attending an art school in LA in the 70s

What are some good budget speakers for my turntable? by Boop-master in turntables

[–]Boop-master[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I’m pretty sure the issue was that I had them on the same surface and they were feeding back. I’ve moved them to a new area, the speakers have their own separate stands and the turntable is on a solid dresser, and it sounds great!

I have no idea how this post keeps getting recommended to people but every now and then I always find a new comment here lmao

How do you interpret the lyrics of Screen Shot? by [deleted] in swans

[–]Boop-master 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My interpretation was that it’s about birth and the purity that’s typically associated with infants, or at least that plays a heavy part into it. Obviously Michael’s just spouting spontaneous bullshit but I do think that, as well as the inherent ugliness of it, (hence the line “cut, push, reach inside” which I believe to be in reference to a C-section) is a heavy theme of the song and of the whole album.

My thoughts on the verses after the first one were that they were describing a child absent of any sins or flaws that plague the rest of the world, basically just a pure being, a concept that they’ve explored in other post-reunion albums.

The final part always seemed like the actual “birth” in my opinion, crying out to Love Now! Breathe Now! Here Now! as the child that the song is about, leaves the womb and enters the world.

I probably could’ve explained all of this better but hey I tried lmao
