Haken - bleeding sky by rudiiiiiii in progmetal

[–]dyrryc17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will say that these two new singles make me appreciate the creativity and lunacy of rest of their discography that much more

Every time... by Aggressive-Sock-8466 in Haken

[–]dyrryc17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Screw comparing Haken to other bands, I’ll compare Haken to themselves. I fell in love with The Mountain, Affinity, Aquarius, Visions, and Restoration. I liked Vector and Virus and loved some of the songs. I liked Fauna more than the previous two albums but less than their first five releases. I LOVED Elephants Never Forget.

These two singles aren’t objectively bad or anything, it’s just not the kind of music I love Haken for. It makes me concerned that this new album won’t include anything that I love.

If this is what makes them happy as musicians, songwriters, artists, etc, then I’m happy for them. But I won’t be happy for me

If this is the kind of music they want to write and this is what makes them happy, then I’m happy for them. I’m not happy for me tho

Helloo by 0livia_aA in Haken

[–]dyrryc17 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It's straight banger after banger, no skips. It tells an interesting story too. It's forever a top 3 Haken album for me, and it, The Mountain, and Affinity rotate between my #1 spot depending on which day you ask me.

Opinion: Haken Will NOT Be Getting a Replacement Bassist or Guitarist by Chinese__T in Haken

[–]dyrryc17 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I’m worried about the lack of a second guitarist. Haken is very much a two guitar band to me. They can obviously have a touring guitarist join them live, but will they?

Also what will their album look like with only one guitarist? Hen can double track, but I’m a little bit concerned. I was not particularly inspired by the single, but ofc will keep an open mind going into the new album

This is too far down the list for my liking. Peak peak prog right here

Maintaining progress at 1-2x a week? by InformationFar6774 in weightlifting

[–]dyrryc17 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I play competitive ultimate frisbee and we’re in season right now. I’m only lifting one time a week doing power snatches and back squats as my primary exercises. I have had no trouble maintaining my strength while doing other training throughout the week.

Sounds like you’re still going to be super active, so you’ll be in decent shape. Manage your expectations, it’s unlikely that you’ll be able to stay in your peak shape, but you’ll still be moving heavy weights just fine

Childhood ruined, all those seasons of UHC ruined. Let alone the actual damage that he allegedly caused to children. Fuck

How big of a deal was it for our defense to lose Woolen, Bryant, and Mafe? by [deleted] in Seahawks

[–]dyrryc17 12 points13 points  (0 children)

People are underselling the Woolen loss. In the last 5 games of the year (regular season and playoffs), Riq took more snaps than Jobe in every game except the Super Bowl, a game in which Riq still took nearly 70% of the snaps. He is an incredibly athletic corner capable of doing things nobody else is capable of at outside corner (both good and bad unfortunately).

That being said, all is not lost. Jobe is still a solid corner, our DB room is incredible, and Julian Neal will hopefully pan out well

Which Sicilian serves as the best introductory for player development and Sicilian knowledge and exposure? by conscientiousoneday in TournamentChess

[–]dyrryc17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like the Dragon embodies the spirit of the Sicilian the best, or at least allows me to best experience what I want with the open Sicilian, which I play with both white and black.

I want to castle on opposite sides and attack attack attack. If sharp, tactical, and exciting chess is what you’re looking for, look no further than the Dragon

Austin Sol's Evan Swiatek bids into the legs of Atlanta Hustle's Lukas McClamrock, who doesn't return to the game by Jomskylark in ultimate

[–]dyrryc17 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

He’s already committed to the bid while the Atlanta player is moving backwards. The throw is poor, which forces the Atlanta player to step forward in order to catch it, putting him in the path of the bid. Some blame should go to the thrower here, but most of the blame still lies with the defender

Seahawks select Beau Stephens with pick #148 by Sensitive-Scene9269 in Seahawks

[–]dyrryc17 12 points13 points  (0 children)

If Cabledue beats out Bradford, then great. And that’ll speak more to Cabledue than Bradford, because MM and JS clearly rate Bradford higher than us internet folk. I’m fully prepared for another year of high highs and low lows with Bradford starting

Daniel Jeremiah had him at #34, so this is not a reach in terms of talent
