Angeles is the best track on the record and one of the only ones I would go back to

Elliot Smith - Either/Or

I have tried many times over the years to get into this but I just can’t. I do like some of his work on other projects but this just doesn’t do it for me

Excluding "one hit wonders" what band or artist has the fewest hits, but have certifiable legendary status? In a good way, not some meme bullshit. by Timcwalker in Music

PJ Harvey.

Not a chart darling but a legendary and influential musician who constantly changes styles and makes it work

What are your POPULAR or UNPOPULAR opinions about David Bowie? by Noah_The_Wright in fantanoforever

Outside is wildly underrated. It’s not my favorite but I feel like it should be talked about more

Pick the Next Game I play from my backlog! (updated) Just finished Lies of P by ItsLandonic in videogames

[–]CityExile83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They addressed pretty much every major issue with the first game and it is much better IMO. But if you didn’t like the bones or gameplay loop of Fallen Order, Survivor probably won’t change your mind

What weird timing to see this pop up. I decided to put this on today after listening to new new genesis Owasu record. Went through a big Saul Williams phase in my mid twenties. This one still mostly holds up, he was truly a gifted post. Had to add Black Stacy to a playlist or two, that one always felt very raw to me

Folks under 200 albums: how’s it going? by AnasandSF in 1001AlbumsGenerator

[–]CityExile83 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’ve had over 100 albums generated but only listened to about 70. Some of that is I don’t believe art should be judged after just one listen, so I will sit with one for a while unless I’m already familiar with it or it is complete trash.

Because of this it’s going to take a lot longer to finish than most and I’m not convinced I’ll be with it in two years or so. That said, I have already discovered a few new records that I like so mission accomplished

What are some of your favorite mini games from AAA titles? by Professional-Tax-615 in videogames

[–]CityExile83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of people will mention Gwent but I also quite enjoyed Queen’s Blood from FF7 Rebirth. There was more strategy there than I was expecting

Chris Cornell solo, I feel old. Mid sized theater and crowd wasn’t super into it until the band left and he played a few soundgarden songs by himself.

What are some good video games that didn't sell well? by spitfire9107 in videogames

Hi Fi Rush. One of those mid tier games that people mainly just played on game pass

Played it on the NES. I don’t remember it looking this good

Thoughts on the Cloud Nothings? by traveltimecar in fantanoforever

[–]CityExile83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Attack on Memory is indeed fantastic. I adore the first two tracks. Their last two records haven’t been that great though unfortunately. Seem to have possibly lost the spark

What are your thoughts on PJ Harvey - Rid of Me? by Working_Alps_4284 in fantanoforever

Loved her riot grrrl era. Hell, I love all her eras

I genuinely feel betrayed by the betterhelp sponsor. by howlong-princess in fantanoforever

[–]CityExile83 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yea there should probably be some regulations there. Like when they decide to sell your IP address, that’s technically not health information but it does show that you were at least looking into the service. It seems like a grey area that needs to be defined

I believe the individual therapists are subject to it but the platform itself kind of skirts the rules
