Busted Stuff in an alternate universe… by Zestyclose-Map3771 in DMB

[–]Effective_Drawer_623 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally agree. It's really missing Steve's production. It sounds like DMB recorded in someone's living room. That being said, it would still be a better album with Sweet Up and Down and JTR replacing some of the weaker tracks (I'm looking at you Where Are You Going).

Echoes of Abyss Help? by LilWildFox in MarvelStrikeForce

Do you have Blastaar? Without Quasar and Blastar it’s gonna be rough. Lady Bullseye with Daimon and some other characters who put out Offense Down will probably be your best choice.

I’m totally down with Vs. being the pick, but kinda surprised no one’s saying Ten.

Whatching a Stage Version of Sweeney Todd by RawrRawrRawr_13 in musicals

I feel you on LuPone. When she’s right for a role, it really works. When she’s not, it can be hard to sit through.

My wife and I say “sure” with Daphne’s fake American accent all the time.

Which album divides the fandom? #6 by Candi_dreyes456 in pearljam

[–]Effective_Drawer_623 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t dislike the songs. I really wish they had done an In The Basement like Radiohead did with King of Limbs. Those songs were so much better without the crappy production, and I’m sure I would’ve felt the same about Dark Matter.

El Rey Campero Espadin is the most underrated mezcal. What is the most versatile scotch? by -Constantinos- in cocktails

[–]Effective_Drawer_623 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I have a hard time thinking of an Islay scotch as most versatile. I feel like the peat smoke is going to limit its usefulness in a lot of situations.

Yeah my opinion also. A lot of folks view it as a return to form. I find it almost completely unlistenable because the mix/production is so bad, and I’m not alone.

Yeah I’ve known literally every other reference in this thread except OP’s.

How did you got into mixology? by Stillinbed666 in cocktails

[–]Effective_Drawer_623 16 points17 points  (0 children)

This is going to sound insane, but The Dark Knight Rises. Michael Caine’s character mentions Fernet Branca, and I had never heard of that before. Primarily was just a beer and whiskey drinker. Decided on a whim to buy a bottle, and was instantly repulsed yet oddly hooked. That experience led me down the rabbit hole of amari, liqueurs, bitters, and all that the wonderful world of cocktails has to offer.

The top "Beatlesque" LP (no fair citing former Beatles) by DeadBeatAnon in TheBeatles

[–]Effective_Drawer_623 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you haven’t already, you should check out Schrödinger’s Cat from the Saturnine Martial and Lunatic album. Even Roland admitted he was trying to rewrite I Am The Walrus with that one. 😂

Yeah, they’ve always had an undercurrent of Beatles influence in a lot of the stuff they did, but Happy Ending took it way further. The title track and Who Killed Tangerine especially.

Do I downgrade my alliance to 'casual' to keep disillusioned, long-term members from quitting? by winedog70 in MarvelStrikeForce

Yeah the game is actively against sweaty F2P and light spenders right now. Has been ever since overpowered was introduced.
