If being Yorke is anything like as exhausting as listening to that track, he really needs to take a nap.

“Storm of the Lights Bane” is essential. If I had to pick five of my favorite black metal albums it’s easily on the list.
...there might be some professional reviewer, somewhere, who’s out there gestating slowly on their “Actually, it’s very good!” take...
Addendum: I’ve started in on the new season, and I think it’s stellar.
eh, they could still dial it back a bit, but the pacing of the riffs was way better than last season. They weren’t all stumbling all over each other on at least Mac and Me.
I haven’t started the new season yet (in Canada for me, it’s a work day - and a very busy one), but remember the adjustment from the first season, getting used to the pace of the jokes.
It wasn’t quite up to the standards of the classic series, but I still liked it a lot. Their biggest problem was firing off riffs too quickly (and occasionally prematurely). Hopefully, they’ll be more comfortable and settled in season 12.

There’s literally no possible way Hill wrote the music for “Miseducation” to the point that she deserves sole credit. She couldn’t play more than a few simple guitar chords on “Unplugged”, yet she’s telling John fucking Legend what to play on piano?
Seriously. It basically shits on them for daring to want credit and compensation because it interferes with the narrative the writer and Hill have constructed of how this all came from her “motherhood.”
The (very credible) accusations of credit theft deserve much more than the offhand mention they get here.
The most memorable character in that segment was the screaming Jonathan Bell. His story turns out to be rather disturbing when you look into it.
Sadly, I never dealt with him directly, but I was involved in a religious satire magazine called The Wittenburg Door (aka The Door) at a time when it was being published by a not-for-profit foundation that Joe Bob was involved with. This was about the time that Joe Bob, under his real name John Bloom, was doing the…
At the end of the hour the majority of my criticisms were focused on her drinking.
Like...A functional alcoholic on a reporter’s salary wouldn’t be blowing money fast on minibottles of Absolut, she’d be buying handles of Popov at 8:45 AM and carrying a funnel in her bag of tricks (Alongside the Altoids, Listerine and…
At least it’s what someone with a drinking problem would actually be drinking. I’ve never been more annoyed than reading The Girl on the Train where she’s blacking out on a bottle of wine or a 4 pack of gin and tonics every night
Just saw the first episode. Amy Adams and Patricia Clarkson are great which is no surprise. The imagery and her past are haunting. I’m in for the ride.
This might be my favorite episode of the series so far. Definitely the best episode of anything I’ve seen in a while. It was almost like Glover and crew’s own take on ‘The Fall of the House of Usher’, but with their own distinct perspective and thematic concerns
