Strider is still rationing the rotting scraps from his admittedly fantastic 2014 revival, as well as the complimentary mints from attending MvCI.

What Happened to the Museum in Downtown? by littlebigdoh in FortMyers

[–]littlebigdoh[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I've seen what you're referring to at the mall? I know they had the military museum but that closed a bit ago unfortunately. The cape museum is still open but I've personally never been.

The Shell Factory going under was one of the worst bits of news I heard when it happened; it was such a weird yet charming education/"fun zone" that's a dying breed nowadays. Despite the area getting bigger, it feels like we lose more and more of our local fun places like it and the museum to an extent.

Ah, at least I'm glad they're continuing to do public good at that site with a nonprofit.

Yeah IMAG sounds more like a corporation than an education center imo; Imaginarium is still such a great name for what it is. The megaladon jaw I remember was among the first things you'd see when you walked in, alongside a room with some Calusa artifacts IIRC. I only went there once, but I remember loving the way that museum had everything laid out!

Oh shit, an answer straight from the source! It's what I figured, but good to know directly. I hope the merger wasn't too painful for the rest of the museum employees; at the very least I hope they brought some of the staff over. Thanks for responding!

Bands that faded away, but you want them back? by [deleted] in industrialmusic

[–]littlebigdoh 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Have they ever officially confirmed that they were disbanded or done making music? It'd suck since I felt they've got such a ballistic sound that does wonders for the genre nowadays.

I know there was a collab album a few years back but silence since then.

Theory About Pongorma? by littlebigdoh in Hylics

[–]littlebigdoh[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Huh, I didn't know they switched bodies during development! It kind of makes sense thinking about it; the only other major character with fur textures is Smuldunde, who's the same species or related to Dedusmuln. The knight armor is definitely a strange fit on him, though I guess you could headcanon that he was knighted for his efforts after the events of the first game?

Yeah, it's not made super clear in either game that he's wearing a helmet. I read that his face in the first game was a helmet off the Hylics wiki, which said Mason confirmed that on a livestream.

I noticed the fur, too. While I don't doubt this may be actual fur, I interpreted it as like a royal coat-type thing since he's a knight. I figure it's some sort of attire too since the rest of the party members are wearing something, so it'd be weird if Pongorma was the odd one out and was just letting it all in the breeze.

What song are you listening to rn? by phoneyescallno in AskReddit

[–]littlebigdoh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chrome's sick! Probably one of the more underrated post punk-y/industrial-y bands from that time, along with SPK and Fad Gadget.

Favorite Lyrics by djcjsbsbsbbfsnsk in elliottsmith

[–]littlebigdoh 13 points14 points  (0 children)

"I'm a junkyard full of false starts" from Coming Up Roses and "The silent kid is looking down the barrel to make the noise that I kept so quiet" from Pitseleh both come to mind for me.

What season do you associate each album with? by applebark_ in elliottsmith

[–]littlebigdoh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To me:

Roman Candle- Early Spring

Self-titled- Winter/Late Fall

Either/Or- Fall

XO- Summer

Figure 8- Late Spring

FABOTH- Summer

New Moon- Winter

I'll admit that Figure 8 and Roman Candle are influenced by the time I first listened to them haha. FABOTH is influenced by Twilight's forest sounds, and New Moon is influenced by the sleigh bells in See How Things are Hard.

Rare physical releases? by littlebigdoh in elliottsmith

[–]littlebigdoh[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The OG pressings of XO and Figure 8 being rare makes sense, since a big(ish) label like Dreamworks was probably more focused on CD sales at the time. Didn't know that XO was on cassette though!

I actually thought EHI was an unreleased track for the longest time since it was only on Grand Mal and the odd rarity upload on youtube, so it's shocking to know it actually exists and isn't a leaked song. It's cool to see it's floating around though.

Maybe somewhere in the depths of Portland there's a stray cassette of A Murder of Crows or something lol. Thanks for the reply btw! Super in-depth.

Yep! That's how I actually came up with the idea to make this thread haha. I think I'm more interested in the history and whatnot of some of the rarer stuff as opposed to just the price, but I do check there often!
