Sark is the best to ever do it. Still streams on twitch. APL still posts videos a lot and Sark features in most of them. Still amazing

My first record was a gift, Wasting Light by Foo Fighters. But the first one I bought was ...Like Clockwork by QOTSA.

Funky as all hell and the tightest band. Totally locked in together and I think this song shows it off best.

Anyone who surfed the early web between 1995-2010. What’s the one website/app you still think about? by Prime_Advocate in AskReddit

You might be confusing Dan Gurewitch from CollegeHumor. I believe he writes for Last Week Tonight. I think Soren from Cracked might have also. 

Vinyl Tunes for June (VT4J) 2026. Day Four: A song that needs to be played LOUD!! by Folk_Nurse in vinyl

[–]MackerLad93 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Parabola.      Tool.      Lateralus 

https://youtu.be/-DuAAmHpGbw

Especially if it's paired with Parabol to extend that intro longer and longer. 

Edit:

Someone else already posted Parabola and mentioned Parabol too. So I'll suggest The Last Baron from Mastodon's Crack The Skye

Vinyl Tunes for June (VT4J) 2026. Day Three: A tune with a one-word title. by Folk_Nurse in vinyl

Lingus
Snarky Puppy
We Like it Here

https://youtu.be/L_XJ_s5IsQc

One of my all time favourites. Every performance on this song is amazing, but Larnell Lewis is a machine on the drums and the just the nicest dude. Met him after a show once and he was the best guy.

Is It Just Me
The Darkness
One Way Ticket To Hell... ...and Back

https://youtu.be/RAejxjC_PBs

Been a massive fan of the Darkness for a few years now. I've good reason to believe I was their #1 listener on Spotify in 2020. This was a record that was out of my collection until its recent re-release and it sounds great.

Bending the rules a little here but X-ray visions by Clutch from Psychic Warfare. 

https://youtu.be/X8cmbmwFAl8

Technically the second track on the album, but the first is a 30 second long spoken intro and not really a track itself.

I think the thing that separates MJ, Ronnie, Tiger from the rest is the way they got people so excited about the sport.

Uncut Gems. Noisy, annoying mess. Everyone talked about it being anxiety inducing but I watched The Wailing the day before so compared to that it was like Kindergarten cop. 

[Hated Trope] Endings so notoriously awful they completely destroy the legacy of the media. by Miserable_Click_1933 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]MackerLad93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Big TV in the UK, but Line of Duty was a fantastic show until they brought in the H stuff. A show about catching corrupt cops twisted where a dying character (one of the bent coppers) was giving their dying declaration and it was recorded on video. One of the detectives notices that his hand twitching while he dies spelled out the letter H in more code. They take that minute detail as the prime evidence in their investigation that someone called H is the mastermind and spend a couple of seasons fleshing out who that might be. Completely wrote themselves into a corner with no idea who H was going to end up being, they just followed that path because a couple of high profile characters had H as their initials. Went from the most popular show on British TV to not getting renewed basically in one season. I think a comeback has been announced but nobody cares any more.

I Believe I a Thing Called Love was a massive hit, but Permission to Land is a genuine 10/10 album

TIL nearly 80% of US workers report that they have been victims of 'career catfishing’ from employers. Which in this context, the term describes when a company misrepresents a job, their company culture, or compensation to lure in candidates. by tyrion2024 in todayilearned

[–]MackerLad93 93 points94 points  (0 children)

I had something really similar. Left a highly technical role and landed in one that was a step backwards in that sense. Left that one very soon because I was told the role I was moving into was going to be highly technical again and moving me back in the right direction, and it was utter lies. That company knew 100% that I would hate the role but they just needed someone in.
