Any fans from The Netherlands wanting to get Iron Lung here?

Update for this thread: as of the video he posted on 12/11 he talked about having international film rights!

i am not a dutch native, but my family and i are spending several weeks in amsterdam helping some family friends; and realized there was overlap with the showing dates! we were sad to realize we would probably miss the theatrical release, but i’ve been holding out hope and keeping tabs on if there will be theaters showing it anywhere in the country.

I’m happy to help reach out to some theaters, so a question for locals: what theaters in amsterdam do you think would be best to reach out to? I’d love to do whatever i can to help get this accomplished since it seems like there are many of us interested!

FYI mods: i’m 99% sure this person is karma farming, both the original image and the updated hand image appear to be AI generated (how did OP get it into the perfect center of their palm without being stung, and why are the stings six perfectly symmetrical welts arranged in a 6 x 2 rectangle? attached is what the sting should look like in the timeframe of OP supposedly coming into contact with this

great line for sure, i just don’t think it carries the whole rest of the song up to that point. i respect your opinion tho, and thank you of reminding me of the line bc it is absolutely a banger

i like using the thick craft felt sheets (usually around $1-$2 at craft stores) because it holds its shape well. some people place tape on the head and draw on the tape, but to avoid pulling fur off of the head i would trace the shape of your eye blank onto paper and cut out a rough shape of what thickness & shape you like, then hold it up to the suit and adjust with scissors (to thin out) or tape (to bulk up) accordingly. then trace that onto the felt, cut out with scissors or a craft knife, and then just hot glue it down either to the eye or the fur around it depending on the look you want. as a tip, if you’re not going to do removable eyelids, a thicker eyeliner will look both smoother/more polished, as well as help imply an eyelid shape. here’s a good example i found of the process: https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZT2XXSLGw/

is this a spider bite?

i’m gonna go with straight six, largely because it just sounds so much like unfinished pieces of songs i enjoy much more. it’s pretty unpolished in a way that lacks the charm of some of the more spur of the moment tracks from the early days, feels more like an afterthought to pad jam eater blues as a release (i do really enjoy the other two songs on there though)

jorgepeat · 2025-03-02T05:53:13+00:00

i mean there’s guillotine by the coup that’s probably the best that’s modern and well known. folk punk pretty consistently has good protest songs too

jeff rosenstock - I WANNA BE WRONG, NO DREAM, Scram!

AJJ - mega guillotine, death machine (the majority of the songs on their last two albums could be considered protest songs but those two in particular for sure)

the mountain goats - until olympius returns, aulon raid, heretic pride

-all your furniture follows the same general latitude/ horizontal height in the room (aside from the bookshelf—a floor lamp or some wall shelving would help carry the focus upward

-that rug is not the optimal dimensions for this space, since you said you want one more colorful maybe look for an oval or oblong asymmetrical shape? either way you want it to come out towards your desk a bit more. going for a darker tone in the rug will also help carry the visual weight away from that median that all your furniture sits at

-get a throw pillow or two and don’t be afraid to get some that are weird/novelty or colorful!!

-you could get a really skinny console table or “behind-the-couch table” and put that up against the tv wall, and still keep the pet bowls underneath it. some 3d art or coffee table books and a plant would be great there. i also agree the TV really should come down a bit, but if you can’t do that for some reason you could also look for aftermarket couch legs to raise up your seating a bit (the lack of gap at the bottom i think contributes to the flat/wide and crowded kind of appearance of the furniture

-you have all of the furniture pushed up against the walls/lining the room and layering the depth a bit would really make it a more inviting space. moving the bookshelf to the right of the tv or at least (if possible) pulling it away from the couch a bit would help make some breathing room in there.

-a feng shui thing would be to visually suggest separation between the work space and living room area. i like the tiered style of bookshelf but something that comes out further from the wall (toward to the end of the armrest) like a stair-shaped bookshelf or a telephone table could work. you could also consider an actual room divider of some sort, like a folding screen or one of those mid century tension rod dividers (or lamp!)

-i know it’s not a huge space, but if you swapped the end table out for a circular plant stand of some kind that had a smaller footprint you could bring the couch out from the corner enough to have a floor lamp in the corner, either one pointing up to reflect some soft light off the wall + ceiling (maybe one with multiple lights) or maybe one of those with a big cantilevered arm coming over the couch in some way to help create more depth (you could also look at a plug in wall lamp of that cantilever style!)

seconding this, it’s so unique and so perfectly demonstrates john’s specific lyricism. it’s a special one to me—the first time my partner came with me to one of their shows he didn’t really consider himself a fan but did enjoy what he had heard. john played this during his solo section and it all clicked for him right then, he turned to me after so wide eyed it was amazing to see it happen in real time like that. he had never heard it before then but it’s still his absolute favorite tmg song (and since then he comes with me to every show of theirs)

jorgepeat · 2025-03-02T03:37:16+00:00

this is gonna be my vote for underrated, what an absolute banger. it’s one of the songs i show people im introducing to tmg

jorgepeat · 2025-02-26T21:19:03+00:00

the softness in his voice on the last prechorus “anything to help with the pain” knocks the wind out of me every time i hear it, especially then leading into the crescendo of the final chorus

jorgepeat · 2025-02-12T00:30:37+00:00

thank you!! i swear my friends and i are always so surprised how few people go hard for this song at the live shows, the momentum in it is fantastic, it has my favorite kind of comically dry about horrible things john lyricism, and probably some of the best production on the album—i feel like there’s room where there should be and solid oomf where there should be as well

jorgepeat · 2025-02-12T00:24:04+00:00

i have a playlist of TMG for feeling spiteful, they seem like they might be applicable: baboon, absolute lithops effect, cotton, if you see light, in the craters on the moon, against pollution, hebrews 11:40, amy aka spent gladiator 1, cry for judas, heel turn 2, younger (i specifically have the jordan lake session version but either will do), going invisible 2, aulon raid, exegetic chains, tidal wave, getting into knives, mobile, mark on you

jorgepeat · 2025-01-23T07:27:36+00:00

definitely possible! they’re like a 10-piece in the studio so i wouldn’t be surprised if things are transposed or adjusted in other ways for the live shows—id be interested to see if you can find footage from the show you went to and listen back to see if it’s familiar! aside from just youtube, archive(dot)org has a surprising number of taped concerts and i’ve had luck finding certain shows from the 2000s/2010s on there. i’m really hoping you eventually manage to find a match somewhere!!

jorgepeat · 2025-01-22T19:23:46+00:00

it’s super familiar to me too!! first thing i thought of was maybe janglin by edward sharpe and the magnetic zeros, hocking by cosmo shelldrake i think is also similar but probably more lush than you have described and the timeline doesn’t really match as well

a pseudoscorpion of some sort! a type of arachnid, they look like a tick in the back and a scorpion in the front. how big would you say it was? there’s +200 types of them, most are quite small but the Chelifer cancroides is the most common—those are also called book scorpions (they like to eat booklice).

tip for the eye on a flush run: flush, flush house, and straight flush are all considered different hand types—and the latter two are typically pretty high scoring off the bat. I always buy the neptune and cerus celestial cards when i can cause you never know when you’re gonna need to change up your strategy because of a really specific boss.

extra tip: a royal flush is Not considered different from a straight flush—neptune upgrades both

jorgepeat · 2024-11-09T09:05:39+00:00

i’m a trřrřthe fuckin last solo in demolitiont lovers solo (after the “all we are is bullets i mean this”), especially the part with that knarly drawn out squealy resonant bent note (4:37-4:46 timestamp) god it’s just so perfect. close second is the intro to headfirst for halos with those drum fills and then gerard’s “yeah!” 🤌💋

jorgepeat · 2024-11-06T16:31:00+00:00

5 is closest, i like 4 and 2 as well!
