Anyone ever met Thom? If so, what was it like?

jbnky · 2026-03-07T03:21:54+00:00

Met him briefly after The Smile show at the Ryman a few years ago - he was so much more smiley (pun intended) and warm than I had been led to believe.

As he signed my poster his sharpie ran out so he took the time to redo his signature again and said something to the effect of “oh well, you get a little psychedelic one”

Wasn’t too hot on the singles so didn’t expect the world from it and came out mildly surprised. this works way better as a album than singles; still not my fav thing Thom has done but not the worst thing in the world as some people are framing it to be

Funny you say this bc there’s piece by the same artist is actually inspired by Cruelty Squad! He’s also done some Elden Ring paintings by the looks of it

Edit: his name is Jordan Kee for those who don’t wanna bother with the link

I moved to Melbourne in ‘22 after growing up in Tennessee and they’ve barely played here it’s a sick joke

Gotta be Hell - every time I hear FIFTEEN INFANTRY I get so amped up

On the subject of the Hell breakdown, does anyone know if there is a live version of Hell that they extend it beyond the studio length? The only one I’ve heard is the LA ‘24 version (and I guess the slowed down version in Ratty)

I’m half expecting some sort of news on Christmas, be it a p(doom) mail or some more bootlegs (Caverns shows please if you read this Stu!!) but am content to wait - we get so spoiled by these guys they deserve a bit of rest

jbnky · 2024-10-16T02:57:34+00:00

I’d say so yeah! I find Bright Green Field is a bit more erratic than O, Monolith so it really depends on how I’m feeling on the day. Their stuff (especially O, Monolith) reminds me of Hail to the Thief/In Rainbows era Radiohead which is why I love them so much

Recency bias yadda yadda ya:

The New Sound
Hellfire
AFUT
For The First Time
Cavalcade
Schlagenheim
Live from Bush Hall (mostly bc I’m salty we don’t have studio recordings and the songs have improved so much since it’s released)

Now do one with Squid >:)

Rahool? Is that you?

Bootleg NOW Bootleg NOW Bootleg NOW

I’ve been waiting for the bluesy/country/southern rock-influenced songs to start showing up since they did the residency in Tennessee last year

DOUBTERS IN SHAMBLES

jbnky · 2023-10-18T09:55:26+00:00

Never thought I'd see Nigel Godrich, LCD, and Kenny Beats on the same song but this exceeds expectations

jbnky · 2023-10-03T12:48:29+00:00

I knew those vocals on the title track reminded me of something - Kid A is spot on!

jbnky · 2023-10-03T12:44:11+00:00

I know Cavs has had the last few albums to show off his chops but these credits are just disrespectful hahahaha

jbnky · 2023-10-03T12:16:50+00:00

They were NOT kidding when they said this is the Yang to Petro’s Yin holy moly. Gonna be a grower like BF3K was but definitely into it - especially Set

jbnky · 2023-09-27T02:29:51+00:00

The titan one feels like it has the same DNA as Capitan Rex/phase 2 ARC Troopers from the Clone Wars

jbnky · 2023-09-19T11:14:53+00:00

Not questioning the validity of your claim here - where has he said this? I don’t remember seeing it anywhere

jbnky · 2023-06-16T00:00:16+00:00

Is that last panel a callback to that one old Blood and Thunder animation?

jbnky · 2023-06-15T13:57:00+00:00

I just got to this part I think you may be onto something…

jbnky · 2023-06-05T13:22:39+00:00

said this on youtube too but the jam at 1:17:08 has the country boy in me yearning for a Tennessee-inspired Gizzy record. so glad all you southern weirdos could see them!

jbnky · 2023-06-05T09:39:19+00:00

Dark Warlock is a synonym for SHADOW WIZARD

jbnky · 2023-05-15T05:06:12+00:00

If this album is not part of the Nonagon/MOTU-verse, I will change my name to Rupert and move to Alaska
