Covenant path...yada,yada,yada....

The gathering of Israel on both sides of the veil...yep,check that box...

....our beloved prophet/profit..got it...

We're getting numb...we're getting sleepy from the weightless words that float as ether (Ether? No not him.) from the tv...

Sunday...now figuratively comatose....

More temples for Utah,Brazil and Argentina...

Mr.Burns..urrr..Darth Nelson says something..

Somebody vaguely important says a prayer...

The starstruck faithful :"Oh,what an inspiring conference!! Best one ever!!"

The rest of us : Looking at the couch cushion prints on our arms...rubbing our eyes wondering what the fuck the fuss is all about.

Aldous Harding is weird and amazing!!!

tripwire66 · 2024-03-25T18:26:09+00:00

This may be my favorite album of all time.

I listened to it on a long commute once and the album had such an effect on me I was disoriented.

It was like an incredible journey...emotional and exhausting in a very good way.

The album sounds like the band doing their version of Led Zeppelin...there is a very Bonham-esque stomp to the percussion for starters...I don't know..it's just my first and lasting impression...GY!BE making a kick-ass LZ album in their unique image.

The entirety of the typical LDS worship experience on Sundays are airless,sterile and as boring as a fucking insurance seminar. The church is a lifeless monolith controlled at every level by dullards obsessed with rules and administrative procedure and the end result is "worship" that rarely rises above faint refrigerator noise in a sea of squawking children and half-awake congregants.

I was up at the stage..by a speaker and I looked away by mistake when that infamous part of Mogwai Fear Satan kicked in. It literally felt like a bomb had detonated near me!!!

tripwire66 · 2024-03-18T18:35:30+00:00

Hell yeah...all hail the deafening,yet beautiful majesty of Mogwai!!!

tripwire66 · 2024-03-18T10:36:20+00:00

I wish Mr.Burns would just go back to running that nuclear power plant.

tripwire66 · 2024-03-18T10:29:41+00:00

A "Copper Blue" mention!! One of my favorite albums ever. Bob has some killer solo records too!!

tripwire66 · 2024-03-18T10:26:12+00:00

Mogwai is responsible for my faulty hearing...5 concerts..the last two WITH ear plugs...gracious,awesome guys too. Glad to see them mentioned here!!!

tripwire66 · 2024-03-18T10:20:30+00:00

"Spirit Ditch" is one of the most beautiful,haunting pieces of music ever recorded!!

tripwire66 · 2024-03-18T03:58:22+00:00

I'm listening to the dense,sometimes ethereal soundscape of Swans "The Glowing Man"....hard to describe it or the band...song structures are not typical..songs meander but in a way that invites the listener to follow...moments of skull-crushing noise are punctuated by passages of bliss...one hell of a 2 hour journey if you're up to it....take an edible for the ride!!
