Yeah man, I had EXACTLY the same experience as you. The only one I don't know from your list is "Faun Fables" - but I will be checking that one out now for sure! LOVE that Atomic Ape stuff. Anyway, nice to meet another fan!

Damn, I am super jealous of that. I would see them every week if it were possible. You into any of the related bands, like Mr Bungle, Faxed Head, etc?

Nice! Another SC3 fan! I finally saw them live back in 2014, and man was I blown away. They are so. fucking. good. I mean, I knew they were good after listening to them for so long, but when you see it live, you realize just how amazing they really are.

Definitely has some of my favourite songs from them on it (the Bit, Buck Owens, Berthas, etc), but I wouldn't recommend it as an entry point just because a lot the "experimental" tracks aren't going to sit well with a lot of people. Houdini, Stoner Witch, the Maggot, or (A) Senile Animal would all be better I think.

Yeah I discarded that one quickly at the time since it was (and is) clearly inferior to the debut, but I listened to it again about a month or so ago, and I was surprised at how good it was. It really starts strong, especially. Somewhere in the middle, it loses me for a few tracks though. Still, much better than I

Mars Attacks was awesome!

One of my favourite bands ever, Trans Am, put out their first album ever, and another, Barkmarket, put out their last ever. Both are solid, if not the best they ever did.

No love for tertisphere? I got totally addicted to that game - so much so that I actually had to sell it as it was taking over my life.

Yeah, I feel and acted almost exactly the same way - except for the Scream Queens part :)

Yeah seriously! That was a great season! Everything else has been just so bad (although not as bad as the first season….well, actually that was the only other one I watched fully, so I guess I shouldn't proclaim anything like that…).

Love that Vince Guaraldi Charlie Brown stuff!

Frank Black's first two solos are awesome and unimpeachable, imho. After that…meh. Never really heard anything I liked enough to buy.

Really enjoyed this first episode. Totally in for the full first season, and I'm going to hunt down the comics too eventually. Hits a really nice sweet spot between super freaky and good storytelling without going too far off in either direction.

Yeah, I love them too. I was kind of disappointed in this new one though. The production sounds off to me - too muddy. I've always preferred a cleaner rawer sound for this kind of rock.

Man, it's really hard to choose. Why not just love them all!?

The Thing is the single greatest horror movie ever made. Those FX still hold up today and are still WAY better than anything CGI has been able to muster up.

Just saw this recently actually, and I was totally amazed at how good it was. I had seen most of his flicks by that point, but this one always escaped me somehow. Damn, is it ever good. Really one of my favourites from him. So violent, so raw, so great. Love the score too.

And especially if they can fucking write, direct, edit, and score most of them. Guy was in a serious zone in his early career.

Well done! I should have realized that from the old Doctor Who stories about the Mara…

Right, forgot about that. On the park bench.
