It felt very forgettable (too... simplistic, perhaps) to me for the first few listens, but it's grown on me a whole lot after a dozen+ listens.

Fear is the glue that holds society together. It's what makes people suppress their worst impulses. Fear is power.

And at the end of fear, oblivion.

I know Perturbator isn't really strictly synthwave anymore (or arguably synthwave at all), but god, BODY//PRISON (the collab he did with HEALTH) is beyond loving sick.

(SKEOR did the album art for all 3, and he also did DEADLIFE's Variations on the Resolve. He's got a really good style for synthwave stuff)

These are both loving amazing. Deadlife has consistently released very good stuff and each one is very different from the others.

This is pretty out of left field but Sturgill Simpson made a, uh, synthwave country record? I dunno it kinda feels like listening to someone's midlife crisis but I am here *clapemoji* for *clapemoji* it.

Sound and Fury, looks like, which is also the name of the album: https://www.netflix.com/title/81171121

Seems like an extended music video, kind of? Similar to the Daft Punk thing. I'm diggin' the music, honestly, and I think I'll check out the movie.

When googling it I also found this:

quote:

"This fall, the culty country star Sturgill Simpson was supposed to be on movie screens, starring in the satirical horror movie The Hunt. That won’t happen. Donald Trump, apparently misinterpreting what kind of satire The Hunt was supposed to be, tweeted angrily about it, and the movie’s studio cancelled its release. "

Probably for the best, the movie was apparently originally titled "Red State vs Blue State" and is about wealthy (liberal) elites hunting poor working-class (conservative) people for sport, and the latter heroically defending themselves with their god-given arms.

The album is good and the movie's got some great visuals, gave me some real Love Death & Robots vibes at times since they flip between animation styles and live action a lot.

Always loved Sturgill Simpson. One of the best modern country artists. I never expected him to make an album like Sound & Fury. But he did. And I have been listening to it non loving stop. Cybercountry coming in strong.

There was a girl who played guitar who sang Nikki's part in Jason in Portland. Was that Nikki? I didn't really know one way or another.

I am back from going down the Sturgill Simpson rabbit hole past couple days. He is going to be prolific. It's turtles all the way down and this man's voice transcends.

Jesus. I wonder what the holdup was? I remember them saying Hunters was gonna be on EP2 way back in like 2012, and then it just kind of wasn't.

Life would be simple in the forest except for Cyril Sneer. And his life would be simple except for The Raccoons.
I saw The Midnight a few weeks ago. They played neither American Online nor Memories, which are basically their best songs.

Yeah, there's a remix of it in FC3 Blood Dragon... but it's not on the OST, and is only on Youtube because someone was able to rip it from the game. Between that and Hobo with a Shotgun clearly having licensed it from them (it's in that part of the credits next to Run With Us iirc), it seems like they just weren't happy with the track for one reason or another and didn't want people to be able to listen to it out of context until now, rather than it being rights fuckery.

But that's also a really odd reason to not release your most famous track by a country mile, so I have no clue.
