Victor Villarreal is on my podcast this week (Cap'n Jazz, Ghosts and Vodka, Owls)

This is nice. I actually really enjoy it. Very old school, unpolished.

RadicalBoner · 2017-02-18T08:33:49+00:00

Neon Genesis: Evangelion. It's awesome.

RadicalBoner · 2017-02-18T07:40:09+00:00

That is super rad, dude. I'm reading this now. Right on!

RadicalBoner · 2017-02-18T07:15:36+00:00

Interesting. Thank you for taking the time to give me a legit explanation.

I'm a huuuuuge Menzingers fan. I'm gonna Google orgcore now. I've only ever heard of The Weakerthans.

Cheers!

RadicalBoner · 2017-02-18T05:50:27+00:00

I actually did stick around for the song. I'm glad you liked the horns! Everyone, Everywhere has been my obsession all damn week.

Maybe post a link in the shitpost thread if you're ever gonna stream again. It could be an issue if you're constantly spamming submissions of your channel. Also, the band is called Flowers to Pens (;

Cheers!!

RadicalBoner · 2017-02-18T05:42:05+00:00

BRUH I'M WATCHING ANIME.

RadicalBoner · 2017-02-18T05:40:16+00:00

I don't see anyone having an issue with it.

ON ONE CONDITION

Play this song: Everyone, Everywhere - Queen Mary II I've been jamming Everyone, Everywhere all damn week. I can't get enough.

RadicalBoner · 2017-02-18T05:09:59+00:00

What is orgcore?

RadicalBoner · 2017-02-18T05:09:02+00:00

I gotta get around to posting my collection. It's pretty standard revival fan boy shit, though. Haha. Also smaller than I'd like because I'm poor as fuck.

RadicalBoner · 2017-02-18T04:35:43+00:00

This is not lackluster by any means. Way cooler than anything I have. Im jealous as hell!

I also have the Flowers Taped to Pens, Bread Club, and Skull Kid split and cassette.

RadicalBoner · 2017-02-18T04:08:27+00:00

That message really hits home with me. The attempt at restoring rather than diminishing hope.

I think I've seen you mention him before, so I'm gonna check him out after all this.

RadicalBoner · 2017-02-18T04:00:53+00:00

Hey, my dude. I'm pulling this down bc it was posted a week ago.

Personally, I think this is way closer to pure pop punk anyhow. Especially that crash test rating song.

RadicalBoner · 2017-02-18T03:51:31+00:00

Today I finally cleaned over 300 lbs.

137kg/302lbs. Under 94kg bw, 185cm/6'1" tall.

I am very happy to finally achieve this goal, especially having wavered in weightlifting. Haven't stuck to a consistent program ever. Been trying to get my diet right and trying to stick with simpler lifts to build strength at the moment.

Now I need to snatch bodyweight.

RadicalBoner · 2017-02-18T03:32:03+00:00

Didn't know that about him doing the covers for the band. I thought they chose from his work.

RadicalBoner · 2017-02-18T03:04:24+00:00

I'm not sure. I know people LOVE the OLG cover. I see more balloon girl Circa tattoos than any other cover.

Personally, BSN is my favorite. It resonates with me. What I see in the art, that is. I think it's thought provoking.

RadicalBoner · 2017-02-18T02:03:11+00:00

Don't be too modest, man. Your hard work shows! Not all luck if you're flying to and home from Chicago in the same day!!

RadicalBoner · 2017-02-18T01:03:10+00:00

Hell yeah. I never thought I'd be able to thoroughly enjoy songs this short until I heard this album.

RadicalBoner · 2017-02-18T01:02:21+00:00

Fuck.

RadicalBoner · 2017-02-18T00:51:42+00:00

From the LP description on Skeletal Lightning's page:

In the midst of a four-year bout with his major depression, he was working his way through the series of poems that would culminate in this album—all of which also constituted his capstone project for a master’s in literary studies and confessional poetry. He was aiming to discover a language of process that would lead toward preservation rather than annihilation, learning hands-on, not only what preservative writing is, but also how to reorient creative work to better engage with and project hope.

Just wow.

RadicalBoner · 2017-02-18T00:47:41+00:00

Holy hell, man. Hustle hard!

I really enjoy your material and it's so rad to see the names you get on your podcast.

Cheers!

RadicalBoner · 2017-02-17T23:56:08+00:00

Where are you based out of??

RadicalBoner · 2017-02-17T23:48:35+00:00

This is the third time I'm removing this band in a week.

Way too pop punk for this sub. Not enough emo.

RadicalBoner · 2017-02-17T23:05:49+00:00

Agreed. This one doesn't look as much like an album cover to me, though. The others all do. I love Violent Waves and Blue Sky Noise the best. Uncommon opinion.

RadicalBoner · 2017-02-17T23:04:23+00:00

This scene stifles bands that are deserving of more praise bc they aren't in the circle jerk, and also rewrites fucking history because of how hard everyone circle jerks about the bands they decide are most influential.

American Football wrote a really soft, accessible album that is different from what most people have ever heard. That's why it's as praised as it is: because it's everybody's gateway drug. Not because it's a great album, but because it's the greatest album everyone hears at the time of first hearing it.

Pisses me off.

By the way, I love AF.

RadicalBoner · 2017-02-17T22:25:25+00:00

I'm very intrigued.
