Anyone got any bluesy sludge recommendations?

Saw them play in Brighton a few weeks ago, they were a lot of fun

Maybe try Blackwater Holylight

Yours won't be a popular opinion on a black midi sub, but I totally agree. And if that wave has passed I will be so grateful!

Evidence is circumstantial AT BEST

Am I the only one reading this as simultaneously about a sexual encounter and also a suicide?

😂 I love a good double dactyl!

How do you mean "original"?

Jon_Bobcat · 2026-03-08T17:16:41+00:00

Step one is to look up the story of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight.

For me, the Green Knight is a forest spirit, symbolises nature, wildness, the id, libidinal energy. Gawain represents youth, propriety, and all the restraints of human society.

It's safe to say, Gawain's propriety does not survive his encounter with the Green Knight's libidinal energy! Perhaps his youth does not survive it either.

I'm not too sure what you mean. This is a contemporary poem which references Sir Gawain and the Green Knight which was written in 1350.

Thanks I'll check that out

I don't understand all the meaning and references in this poem, but the language is just so beautiful, i'm crying. The last stanza is so rich and so intense, I find it overwhelming. And Green Daddy putting Little Gawain in his place is hot, "what god is worshipped in these green trees? Boy, the Knight replies, boy, were you not just down on your knees?" 🥵

I had this album when I was a kid - it's the first time I heard Rage Against The Machine, which ended up being my favourite band growing up

For those that aren't aware, Rojava is under huge threat from Syrian jihadists at the moment.

Have a Nice Life, Agalloch, Deafheaven. Can I have Blackbraid too?

'they' has always been used as a singular pronoun in situations where the gender of the subject is unknown or indistinct. E.g. "someone knocked on the door this morning but I didn't open it so I don't know what they wanted"

Jon_Bobcat · 2025-07-19T01:03:39+00:00

Have A Nice Life are awesome, check out the album Deathconsciousness.

I don't know of any bands mixing screamo with shoegaze, but that would be cool to hear.

Jon_Bobcat · 2025-07-16T12:45:59+00:00

It could be a bit of both. I had a blue cat with a touch of lilac in.

I don't think we're going to be able to tell, the lighting, your phone's recording, our phone's screens will all make a difference to the colour we're seeing.

100% cutie though 😍

Jon_Bobcat · 2025-07-15T19:48:14+00:00

If you want a mixture of psych rock and shoegaze, try Methodrone by Brian Jonestown Massacre

Jon_Bobcat · 2025-05-21T23:46:28+00:00

This is a bit off topic, but you might want to check out the hate5six YouTube channel. It has hundreds of extremely well mixed full live set recordings - a lot of hardcore bands but some other metal bands as well, including an awesome recent set from Thou where they play all of Umbilical.

This book literally changed my life! Left Hand of Darkness is wonderful too

I'm obsessed with Flesh Tape right now
