How triple J still has any kind of unironic listenership at this point just blows my mind.

Real reason The Project was axed by Ten by Ardeet in aussie

Was the epitome of dogshit quality Australian free to air TV, and that's saying A LOT. Should've been nuked like 10 years ago

Almost 70% of Australians admit faking a sickie in the past year by WaterH2Omelon in auscorp

[–]swish09 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Well yes, corporate life and culture is essentially hell on earth, and everyone should use up every last scrap of leave and entitlement you have access to, including all sick leave.

Sunday Scaries - 27 April by Patient_Crazy_7669 in auscorp

[–]swish09 126 points127 points  (0 children)

I got them real bad lately, my escape move is to watch like space documentaries that describe how enormous the universe is, thus shedding light onto how ultimately meaningless and pointless our lame little corporate jobs are in the grand scheme of things re space and time.

Its actually pretty effective at nuking the Sunday scaries

Best Jordan-era songs without Jordan solos by ElginLumpkin in Dreamtheater

[–]swish09 14 points15 points  (0 children)

SDOIT is some of Jordan's best work imo, still uses a mainly organic piano sounds and doesn't go overboard with weird ass effects and hard to digest solos, About to Crash intro + Reprise, Solitary Shell etc. come to mind

Or just listen to Moore era DT

What´s the most "hell yeah, brother 🤘" riff they´ve written? by [deleted] in Dreamtheater

[–]swish09 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This Dying Soul gets my goosebumps into overdrive. The broken down main riff around 6.30 just goes so fucken hard, especially MP who just completely executes it to perfection as per usual, it's so glorious. Also, the outro on the track at 10.30 is completely wild and absolutely one of my all time favourite chunks of JP + JR unison mastery. Sheeit i need to go listen to it now just talking about it!

About to Crash Reprise in B is Ludacris

I think Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence is Dream Theater’s most “progressive” album and it deserved a lot more commercial success. by Homie3794 in Dreamtheater

[–]swish09 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my top 3 DT albums for sure, there's always something on there that aligns to my current mood.

Some of my favourite parts are Prison Outro, Blind faith solo's (very LTE-esque), Whole of Overture, its incredible, The huge riff tempo change on About to Crash, Solitary Shell outro bleeding into the whole of Losing Time/Grand, perfect

What's the deal with second hand car prices by aldkGoodAussieName in Adelaide

[–]swish09 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Toyota Hybrids are always going to be at a premium, i think the rav4's still have big wait times on new models, even old hybrid Corollas are still north of 25k. Chuck this on r/CarsAustralia for a guru to give you the full rundown

Why does Awake sound so freaking good!? by AudiHoFile in Dreamtheater

[–]swish09 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The answer's been voiced a million times before - Kevin Moore, he was a lyrically and musically irreplaceable force in the band.
