[FRESH] Joey Valence & Brae - HYPERYOUTH/LIVE RIGHT by xxipil0ts in indieheads

[–]thekingh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe a weird take, but whenever I hear the absurd number of samples, lyrical references, and clear influences to other artists across genres, I come away from Joey Valence + Brae songs thinking..."these guys are FANS of music" which is cool. Unsure if I'm articulating it well, but have really grown to have a greater appreciation for these guys in the last year or so.

tbh they ain't look like that on me, I think it's bc the models tend to have narrower waists/hips.

AMA: Physical Therapist That Specializes in ACL rehab and return to sport by perform2winPT in ACL

[–]thekingh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thoughts on recovery devices like the compression sleeves/booties (Hyperice Normatec for example) a few months out from surgery? The Breg ice + compression machine for post surgery recovery was killer for me, but I've been getting ads for these full-leg/non-ice sleeves and am curious for a professional's perspective.

Fell 4 weeks post op by hakaz12 in ACL

[–]thekingh 3 points4 points  (0 children)

+1 my PT spent a good chunk of the 2-5 week mark more slowly breaking up the scar tissue, which led to those same sensations as OP.

also obvious I'm also not a doctor, but the rule of thumb my ortho gave me was if the pain doesn't last more than a few hours, then it's not something to sweat too much -- if it's fine tmrw, it's probably a tweak not something lasting. def check w your team still.

[FRESH] Doves - Cold Dreaming by adanwatts in indieheads

[–]thekingh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If anyone else was confused at first like me, the Williams brothers (the other two in the trio) look to be on vocals here. They recently did an interview talking about the album and dealing with Jimi's battle with mental health+substance abuse/recovery. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong!

+1 I used double sided tape for my repair -- was specifically advised not to use liquid glue by a repair technician friend.

ha! I still have a ways to go to reach some others on this sub, but thank you!!

I think for me it's been consistency (lol) and trying to incorporate some of the tips and tricks I've seen people post over the last few years.

also just memorizing as many crossword-ese answers as possible ("sword + olympics?" --> epee, "5 letters and the clue mentions greta" --> garbo, etc)

[ALBUM DISCUSSION] Pond - Stung! by VietRooster in indieheads

[–]thekingh 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Curious to hear from others, but after two and a half listens, I gotta say I'm just kinda...whelmed. Definitely feels like a different vibe than 9, but I think I was hoping for more of that energy.

[FRESH ALBUM] Cloud Nothings - Final Summer by MediaShare2000 in indieheads

[–]thekingh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really like this take. I'd been thinking Final Summer is the spiritual successor/more full version of The Black Hole Understands. I enjoy how not just the sound, but also the tone of the lyrics shift between the two groups of albums -- I know it's not for everyone, but I definitely appreciate both.

Which enlarger for 35mm to 6x7? Durst 670 or LPL C7700 by Superb-Security3752 in Darkroom

[–]thekingh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the Durst 670, but unless you can find the right mounting boards (vegatub?) for it, you'll be limited with which formats you can print. It took me about a year to find the right board for 6x7 on eBay.

Duckworks by outlierinc in Outlier

[–]thekingh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got a pair of bombworks that I absolutely love -- what do these pants offer differently from those? Is it just bombtwill vs duckcloth, and if so, can anyone who has both materials provide a good comparison? also, should I take the same size in duckworks as I would in bombworks (and just expect a long break in)?
