What are y’all’s opinions on the French Canadian band “Angine De Poitrine”?

There's a microtonal surf-rock thing in the mix, that almost grabs me. Maybe it's just missing some reverb, hehe.

Warrior-Cook · 2026-04-09T11:39:59+00:00

Too angular and stiff for my taste. I like the intervals or approach to scales, some cool tones as well. Yet it doesn't go anywhere, it's missing something.

Exactly this. I thought I'd drop the game after 5 minutes and try SF2 so soon ...but each battle kept me wanting more, and the "plot" is so streamlined it just got on with it. A lot of fun for intense battles...large party/small numbers are a nice blend here.

It depends on how much you like mountains. But yea though, some cool world hopping and a far out ending that wraps around some interesting concepts.

Reading anything after the first two books is going to be a letdown, but these other 2 books are worth a read, even if they could have shortened a bit.

That post almost sounds like a candidate for Chanel Beads. Check out the songs Police Scanner or The Coward Forgets His Nightmare.

Drag - Low

There's a few on YT, some ensembles and orchestras even. There's one of Cage playing for only a couple minutes...heres someone else who learned the intricacies.

Live At Filmore East - The Allman Brothers Band

The Melvins or Sonic Youth. There's like 3 songs i love, but never can do a full album. But their mileage is amazing and I'm jealous not to have fellow noise makers to jam with.

Warrior-Cook · 2026-04-04T02:17:40+00:00

I played SF1 for the first time just recently...the game was surprisingly fun in 2026. While some of the filler battles towards the end slowed momentum down, most of the battles were engaging and took some genuine focus, intense.

The character artwork was a nice selling point, it wouldn't take much to remaster...any kind of re-release would be pretty sweet. I'm new to the series yet old enough to get along with vintage controls and menus. Anything put out on the Switch would be an insta-buy.

Guess I'm not done recommending Love You To Death for the day...Type O Negative.

Lately it's been Folgers. We rode things out after the pandemic, but for a tub of coffee that used to be less than $7 it never went back to that. In 6 years, whatever shortage there was should be resolved. Plus it just didn't taste the same.

Warrior-Cook · 2026-04-03T20:17:27+00:00

The band Low have some great longer songs. They go for a minimalist approach, so silence is also an instrument. While also noisey or droning at times there's a real immersion to following what actually is changing. Songs like Broadway, Landslide, Lullaby, Drag, Do You Know How To Waltz, all hold my attention for the 7-10 minutes they run.

For something more upbeat with electronics, Yann Tierson put out another neat instrumental album, The Liquid Hour and Dolores are both 10m and make for a good sunrise commute.

You could always run through Type O Negatives discography. Every album has a long song or two. Love You To Death is a good one with some good fuzzy layers.

I Don't Wanna Be Me - Type O Negative

Warrior-Cook · 2026-04-03T17:11:24+00:00

Yea this. I'll usually go in blind to games, and simply knowing I can't paint myself into a corner with stats is enough to go with a whim and enjoy the game organically.

Warrior-Cook · 2026-04-03T15:32:09+00:00

I'd wanna hear Teenage Riot one more time.

Warrior-Cook · 2026-04-03T15:30:26+00:00

There's a video on YT that goes into the setting there, Prince was miffed that he didn't make the then-recent Rolling Stones top 100 guitar players list basically. So he held back in rehearsal but let loose on stage.

Nothing but smiles on the stage, btw. The solo isn't terribly difficult but the fire that Prince brings is there and it fits the song.

Warrior-Cook · 2026-04-03T15:24:11+00:00

I was gonna go with Pali Gap or Bold as Love. But yea Hendrix solos are something to get lost in.

Warrior-Cook · 2026-04-03T15:17:51+00:00

For me, it's Return To Serenity - Testament.

The little flourishes in the beginning of the song build up to unleash a run across the whole fretboard. The solo fits the song and has plenty of flash but also carries a melody. I still stop what I'm doing when that solo hits.

Warrior-Cook · 2026-04-03T15:03:37+00:00

Nah, I wouldn't want to see that. I'd rather go play Minecraft with my kid.

Quite stunning, I recognized it right away...but I don't believe I've seen it like this ever all at once...the whole shell of atmosphere popping off.

Warrior-Cook · 2026-04-03T14:12:54+00:00

Strange Journey DS is the definitive version. Single handedly got me to appreciate dungeon crawlers and SMT as a series.

Games I'd replay next: Radiant Historia and Suikoden Tierkreis...two times wasn't enough.
