Gong was mentioned, so that kinda counts.

One of the greatest moments in my life was seeking them perform Mekanik Destruktiw Kommandoh in its entirety, with Stella Vander staring at me the whole fucking time.

The first three SM albums are really the essential ones. At the very least, listen to the third just for Wyatt's Moon In June. That is a fucking staggering track.

Funny, it's almost like you've never heard of the concept of "war." It's actually kinda cute.

You know, I'd bet my grandfather was pretty thankful for Dow's weapons of mass destruction when they were clearing out Japanese bunkers and machine gun nests while he was fighting through some shithole island in the Pacific.

Like @avclub-c83654267547dd78e8e4dfbb505d34d7:disqus  said, it happened during testing of the cooling system. Moreover, it was a test that the system wasn't designed to handle. Add to this the fact that the operators weren't properly trained and essentially broke the damn thing when they panicked and overcompensated,…

@avclub-22eda830d1051274a2581d6466c06e6c:disqus I'm not saying death is boring, or at least not the things that surround it. But the actually physical event is, in the vast majority of cases.

Yeah, I guess I just think he amplified the wrong thing. Don't get me wrong, there's plenty of crazy shit that happens but that almost always involves the families you deal with. We're talking wacky-sitcom levels of farce sometimes. And plenty of very pitch black humor, too. I mean, the biggest laugh I ever had was…

See, those opening deaths are why I never made it through the first season.
