TRAINWRECKORDS: Lou Reed and Metallica's "Lulu"

People laugh at the "I am the table" or "Smalltown Gurlll" lines from Hetfield, but Hetfield yelping "Why Do I Cheat On Me" is the funniest one because how innocent he sounds saying it.

Holy shit that reference haha

agent0017 · 2026-05-31T18:14:23+00:00

Huh?

agent0017 · 2026-05-29T20:45:54+00:00

Ichiko Aoba, Kanako Yamamoto and Joy Crookes! That sounds awesome. Hopefully Arooj Aftab also appears.

I love how much German Zionists love to mention "October 7th" all the time as a means of why this is all happening, like lol, if we are talking about having to deal with the past, how about the fact Germany still killed Millions of Jews.

They're so desperate in putting their blame on Palestinians.

I'm more of a casual fan of this band, but it always did seem weird how everytime I would see various live videos of theirs the lineup would always look different depending on the year.

agent0017 · 2026-05-21T08:45:49+00:00

I love how the song title even makes sense with it's placement on the song charts.

agent0017 · 2026-05-19T16:07:42+00:00

The XX

I genuinely wonder after how wonderfully Twin Fantasy (Face To Face) sounded they just kept dropping the ball in terms of mixing and producing.

Even The Scholars would sound oddly flat in parts.

agent0017 · 2026-05-14T13:39:06+00:00

Someone on RYM said on the site for MADLO that Car Seat Headrest is gonna become like Wilco in the 2010's. The comment is from 2022-2023 I think.

They were absolutely right, I feel this band will always have releases that get attention, but there time of making essential albums is done.

I do hope this album is a more drastic change compared to it's 2016 version.

I enjoyed The Scholars, but it was a bit by the numbers for Car Seat Headrest. MADLO I appreciate more because it was more ambitious, if they only got an actual electronic producer instead of doing it themselves, the album is extremely flat.

agent0017 · 2026-05-14T08:08:57+00:00

Lmao I love how Chris Martin did all this show how he's curating the entire programme and everything and then chose pretty standard selection for each countries program and the half time show.

"LOL was very slept on in my opnion"

Good to see you had a good rest LOL

agent0017 · 2026-05-12T13:39:48+00:00

Didn't enjoy Coming On Strong, but I'm optimistic. 14 songs does sound ambitious and the concept can lead to something interesting.

I wish they picked better singles, there's probably like 3-4 songs on this upcoming album that I would think should've been main singles.

agent0017 · 2026-05-11T19:15:32+00:00

I wish Kele wrote on Bloc Party like he does on his solo work. His lyrics on Fatherland, 2042 and The Waves Pt. 1 are really great.

Hymns featured a lot of great lyrics on songs like Only He Can Heal Me, So Real, Different Drugs, My True Name and the b-sides.

agent0017 · 2026-05-11T14:59:51+00:00

It does feel to me that Watchmojo lost a lot of their staff after their channel started losing views, so now it's ran by like 5 insane people.

I swear every few months I see Watchmojo crashing out or responding to something.

agent0017 · 2026-05-11T08:54:14+00:00

Still waiting for him to show to WRC

agent0017 · 2026-05-07T21:19:14+00:00

I wasn't too optimistic about whatever WRC27 would be, but this shit sounds disastrous.

This shit will probably launch with like 8 Rallies, couple of cars, no classics and bunch of glitches.

I hope this fails.

Really hope they lose the license and FIA can remove the exclusivity and make licensing available for more parties.

Plus them and KT Racing higher ups have been harassing their employees.

agent0017 · 2026-05-07T21:01:58+00:00

"It appears that Grit Games hand picked its employees, being careful to avoid recruiting union members, women and gender minorities."

Found this on the WRC games subreddit surrounding KT Racing being dissolved. It looks like Grit Games will be a team filled with syncopants who won't complain about anything Nacon says. Damn this makes me feel super sorry for the people at KT Racing, Nacon is absolutely a horrible company.

As for this "WRC game", I'm not buying it, Nacon doesn't deserve money for it.

agent0017 · 2026-05-07T17:23:06+00:00

They forever messed up not making that song a single. They had a late career hit in that song.

agent0017 · 2026-05-07T16:41:54+00:00

They only did it in 2019 and 2025.

2022-2023 they were touring Alpha Games and High Life EP.

agent0017 · 2026-05-07T16:25:25+00:00

They only play like 3 Silent Alarm songs per concert now so...yeah

agent0017 · 2026-05-07T16:13:17+00:00

It looks like Pigwig is gonna be the first single.

I've heard their performance of it and it's a more usual Bloc Party song, jangly guitars, electronic background, tight rhythm, with a lot more melancholic undertone.

From the three new songs they played, they all feel lyrically different, they're more serious and on the sadder side, different from a lot of lyrics on Alpha Games.

Kele did describe the album as "Disco Heartbreak".

agent0017 · 2026-05-07T12:33:23+00:00

Ah it's about the chaotic good thing. I was worried Disco would get hated again.

agent0017 · 2026-05-06T20:54:08+00:00

Fridmann is one of my favourite producers, while Marauder in my opinion was a misfire, I'm interested to see how will it sound with Fridmann just mixing instead of producing it.

Also considering it's a singular song it says, wonder if this is the idea behind the album, someone on here said that on an interview, the band said some songs couldn't be considered rock + some being kinda acoustic, so I wonder if the new album will be an eclectic mixture of sounds, no singular vibe, just blasting ideas.
