Yeah, as “Sergeant D,” a nom de plume he ported over from the Metal Inquisition blog (which was admittedly a pretty entertaining site for a while). His Metalsucks stuff was mostly about misogyny and how he wanted to fuck teenagers

They have always had a pretty broad reactionary streak; they just performed some halfhearted woke gestures circa 2020 when they thought it would be good for their business

Well it’s easy to do if you are against the concept of having ethics

Yeah they ran a post reiterating some anonymous troll social media frap about how Andrew has no right to criticize bigotry because he had some kind of business relationship with a label guy who likes Arghoslent. Very much the “we should improve society somewhat” cartoon

I don’t know if journalism is even the right word per se; it’s definitely a UK Tory tabloid vibe

Just caught up on this nonsense with Metalsucks going after Andrew from Ripped To Shreds, and would like to state for the record that a) Andrew is totally in the right, and b) Metalsucks has always been a source of tendentious reactionary slop. I hope their business fails.

I don’t join bands, I’m a default member unless the other founders choose a different singer

Have never read any Banks, though he has been recommended to me many times. Waterworld of course isn’t “good” but it has a lot of cool Mad Max-like set pieces

Thinking about the scene in Waterworld where Kevin Costner is locked in a cage suspended above a lethal pool of compost slurry, such that escaping would result in falling into the slurry that they’ll lower him into eventually anyway, for the 1,575th consecutive week

Funny how uniformly people are interpreting “acid” in the album title to mean LSD - not what the lyrics imply

This type of corny shit makes me want to boo him more, not less

Philly booing Ohtani cmon man. He's not a Dodger he's our national baseball Folk Hero. He is for everyone. He loves dogs and hits balls 500 ft and throws the ball 100 mph.

A densely cerebral excursion into warped riffs, fractured rhythms, and unyielding intensity. The album redefines the framework of death metal, crafting something volatile, unpredictable, and deeply unsettling.

This should've been a way bigger recurring trope in the show

Maybe I’ll just go full first Obituary album and scream “yabba dabba doo” over every riff this time

I say the Aqua Teen Hunger Force line about "it don't matter. None'a this matters" whenever things feel unbearably stressful. Pretty soon it's going to be the only thing I say

Tony Romo just blatantly hammered in the broadcast booth at this point. Brockmire-type shit. Wish I could get away with that at my job
