Just to add, Black Medium Current is a class bit of work too.

Arcturus - The Sham Mirrors for me.

This is a great choice. Along similar lines, the most recently released album I thought about choosing is Black Medium Current.

And funnily enough, it's the only Arcturus album that really gels for me, I could give or take the rest of them.

Arcturus - The Sham Mirrors for me.

The drunkard adulterous Christian nationalist who wrote a book fantasizing about recreating the Crusades and also happens to be the current Secretary of Defense has put himself in it by adding the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic into a group Signal chat where the attacks on Yemen were being discussed. Maybe this administration will actually implode under the weight of its own idiocy.

His cabinet is full of amateurs who shouldn't be next or near a cabinet position. What a total clusterfuck.

I saw somewhere Hegseth was referred to as the DUI candidate in a play on DEI    - not serious people.

Some of Alan Averills vocal arrangements on a variety of Primordial songs seriously remind me of Warrel Danes vocals.

Not sure if Alan considers Warrel an influence - I do recall him playing Dreaming Neon Black during a DJ set in Bruxelles many (many, many) moons ago.

I encourage any of the guys on here that were saying that Trump was a better choice than Harris to watch that shitshow - what a fucking embarrassment himself and Vance are, absolutely shameless 

Perhaps they could look at presidential golf trips for waste? The double standards on display are completely ludicrous

Everything is "There's so much fraud. Everywhere". But when you ask or evidence it's not forthcoming.

When in the real world there is always a small bit of fraud in relation to social security. But it's nowhere near what he's claiming. I'd be nervous if I was on disability benefit over there.

Sure we have our own enthusiasts here on the matter too - Exhibit A below.

Maybe Varadkar can do a team up while he's lecturing in Harvard 

Well the mask has certainly slipped

Remember to get out and vote today  y'all. 

Just had a cracking few games of Uno with my young fellas - we each won a game so no whinging 

Your views are most in line with PBP-Solidarity.

Your views are least in line with Fine Gael.

Not a very well made survey though imo, presumes too much detailed prior knowledge, which I guess the Indo presumes its readership will have, but it could have been better worded to get at what people actually care about rather than what they think they think about particular buzz words and acronyms.

Indeed - and basing views/questions on lots of 'populist' binary only options - little room for nuance other that the 'boost' options.

But in the absence of something better....

This might be useful for some of ye - how your views might align with party policies. (Usual health warnings apply, it will be used for data gathering etc..)

What the fuck is 'entartete kunst'

Degenerate art.

In concert, one time only...
...but playing two dates 

I saw a clip yesterday where the man himself seemed a bit surprised at the set up. Very strange decision keeping the fans away.

It's simple really. None of the fans had platinum tickets
