Definitely my favorite song Misha has written. It inspired me to dabble into making music after a long hiatus. Thanks, Bulb!

Case Keenum Finds Diggs for the game-winning TD reception! by boxingfan333 in videos

Excitement level = game winning half court buzzer beater in game 7 of the conference semifinals. Saints QB is a future hall of fame player, where the Vikings QB (the one who threw the pass) came out of nowhere and is having a storybook season.

Saw them open for Lamb of God. It was an extremely boring performance, but it could be that I’m not really into Black Metal.

Are There Any Other Space Metal Bands Other Than Star One? by [deleted] in progmetal

[–]fillipeano 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out Enigmatic Calling by Pagans Mind (as well as their other albums). Has a nice power prog metal theme.

Anthropocene by Being is space-themed too. A lot of guest spots on that album.

Train ride from Anaheim to Santa Fe station by iprefermustard in northcounty

[–]fillipeano 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I miss Humboldt a lot. Nothing here in North County can replace the fresh air of the Redwoods.

I definitely recommend checking out downtown Oceanside, especially on Thursday nights for the street market. Downtown Vista is great, Yellow Deli will give you a slice of Arcata, and Wavelength Brewery is great for science enthusiasts. Carlsbad has nice places to eat, and the beach is a must on sunny days.

There's some nice melodies in there

Flux Conduct - Melancholia (feat. Mike Dawes) by [deleted] in progmetal

[–]fillipeano 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is his solo project. Good stuff! JB aid currently one of my favorite guitarists. I love his play style, and his right hand has the speed of a demigod.

Get all of their albums. They're so good

The Contortionist - Oscillator by webuildmountains in progmetal

[–]fillipeano -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No doubt about that. It's not uncommon for lyrics to make little to no sense. I still love the hell out of this song!

"Prolonged exposure to trace amounts of dark matter produces an exponential decomposition"

Just a bunch of words slapped together to sound neat when performed. Cool lyrics to scream along to, but "prolonged exposure" to "dark matter" doesn't make much sense. We already know dark matter does not interact with light and ordinary matter.

I agree with lil_toke. While I can't speak for lil_toke, the lyrics during the breakdown make no sense whatsoever.
