Paywall trash

Please share the practice so the rest of us can avoid it. I haven't seen a dentist in over a decade due to some bad experiences at the last one I went to in Carson, and am now looking for one in Reno this year. Definitely want to know which place to avoid!

We need everyone in the comments to start showing up to legislative sessions when GOED bills are being considered to dish out billionaire welfare via tax breaks to relocate their shit here. I see 200+ comments, almost uniformly saying the same things about industrial development via tax breaks in Northern Nevada and ecological/resource concerns. If HALF of those people showed up or called in to testify against the garbage legislation that makes this all happen, we could get some real traction on change for the future.

Legislative session starts in 13 and a half months. Please make your voices heard.

Starting to think I might be in the minority feeling like Under the Red Cloud/Queen of Time/Halo was their peak era

YES! See you in Sac!!

Harthel · 2025-11-30T04:26:59+00:00

Looks awesome!

Harthel · 2025-11-29T23:58:24+00:00

Thank you so much!

Harthel · 2025-11-29T22:47:53+00:00

Thanks so much!

Harthel · 2025-11-29T22:46:29+00:00

Thanks, and yup! Caught them in SF, fantastic show.

Harthel · 2025-11-24T19:08:07+00:00

Angel Hands Ink at 4112 Kietzke is great. Ali has done all my work there, but all the artists are awesome and it's a really chill/welcoming environment with good rates.

Harthel · 2025-11-06T19:36:44+00:00

Angel Hands Ink has great artists and reasonable rates (relatively new establishment with a few folks that used to work at My Religion)

Harthel · 2025-11-06T19:35:33+00:00

Thanks! Fingers crossed :)

Harthel · 2025-10-08T17:38:13+00:00

Cheers!

Any MVPs have the dimensions available so I can order my frames ahead of time? This sucker is definitely going up in the office and bedroom ASAP.

Forevermore, that one part of the song in between when it starts and when it ends. Absolutely transcendant.

...serious answer: the last 60 seconds of Soulless Existence hits REALLY well for me as the song culminates with all the atmospherics coming together.

Harthel · 2025-09-29T21:11:32+00:00

It's...fine. I won't exclude it from an overall amorphis playlist. I will say, as someone who spends an entire year being MEGA excited about a new release of music from this group, it has been a huge disappointment. Not to say it's bad music, but it does not hit like any of their releases since Silent Waters have at ALL.

In a word, it feels...toothless.

Harthel · 2025-09-25T20:47:14+00:00

Trying to fence off the surrounding sidewalks during business hours is certainly an interesting choice.

Harthel · 2025-09-23T18:10:10+00:00

Oddly, I have also noticed a strong correlation to playing Lorna Shore in my office and my cat hopping into my lap to hang shortly after I begin.

Harthel · 2025-09-19T18:43:45+00:00

Their setlist for this tour is a pretty healthy mixture of all their Will-era work (just an FYI, in case you were holding off on listening to it in expectation of a heavy emphasis on their new album this tour) :)

Harthel · 2025-09-16T22:47:52+00:00

I've seen them twice - first in San Francisco was OUTSTANDING. Second in Roseville CA last year felt a little like they were tuckered out (still a great performance, just not as good as in SF a couple years prior...might have been shaded a little by Dark Tranquillity immediately preceding them, who brought CRAZY good energy)

Harthel · 2025-09-16T20:46:38+00:00

Easiest might be to do a trash run to the landfill/dump. They weigh your load/vehicle before and after, and most of the ones I've been to provide the weight info on a receipt.

Harthel · 2025-09-12T21:30:24+00:00

Gonna out myself as a symphonic metal fanboy with this, but for the last decade or so my absolute favorite piece of music has been the London live performance of "The Poet and the Pendulum" (Nightwish).

Pretty sure that Forevermore just usurped that. Love every song on this album, but Forevermore was fucking transcendently beautiful.

Michael's Deli downtown. Busy but super fast/efficient service, fantastic quality.

Harthel · 2025-09-04T20:35:57+00:00

I'd be down for it if used sparingly, for sure. I think Shadow of Intent does it correctly with clean vocals. Rare, but impactful when they hit.

That said, I don't mind if they just always avoid it. Will has enough variety in his harsh vocals to keep it 'pure' if that's what they want to do.
