I dislike comments like "this band is the japanese (...)", but they really sound like Built to Spill made in jp. I enjoy them though.

perfume genius 6/10, pretty generic faux-deep indie pop that had a few very good moments but was just kinda eh, maybe higher on another listen. mountain goats was boring, imitating the mid-2000s piano rock thing with pretentious lyrics

Hey man, I'm doing my annual get drunk and message people thing, how's it going? Play any more PLO? I've been playing again lately after watching some Doug Polk videos (made me understand a few things), and I'm pretty sure I'm playing a lot better, but I can't seem to win any of my 60%+ all-ins, so it's not working out. :D

A russian only getting drunk once a year? Ha. Nah I've not been playing much poker, moved house last year and had no internet for 3 months, totally killed my desire+rhythm of 90% of things in my life, it was awful. I started playing a little bit more (just NLHE mtts) recently, but not very seriously or anything. Polk's videos are pretty good, except when he tries way too hard to be funny and it's just awkward lol. What stakes are you playing?

Well, I decided to try bumhunting at 0.02/0.05 and 0.05/0.10 PLO instead of zoom, and I feel like I'm generally winning (I've definitely stopped siphoning money to the regs!), but I've had some massive streaks of losing all-in after all-in where I'm ahead, especially if the stacks are deep. I guess if I really wanted to grind I'd play 9-man turbo NLHE SnGs, I'm definitely beating those (at least the cheap ones).

Damn poker! I really want to start playing MTTs, but I always wake up so late and then my whole day is just finished before I feel like playing, lol. Listening to any new music?

By the way, aren't they banning online poker in Australia or something? I've seen some panic on Reddit about that. As for music - I was tired of it in general for a while, but now I'm back to active listening. I've gotten into some quality punk bands - Minutemen, Hüsker Dü and Fugazi (and NoMeansNo has always been one of my favorite bands overall). I really like good angry music. :D

Yeah there's some drama about online poker in Australia, regulating the market or something, not following too close attention to it, though I should. I've only listened to Double Nickels On The Dime, Zen Arcade, and Repeater by those bands, but all three of those are really great.

Yeah, Double Nickels and Zen Arcade are the ones I've listened to the most. As for Fugazi, I've listened to their last two - End Hits and The Argument, and I really like their sound.

Good shit good shit. The other day on /mu/ some ppl posted a bunch of her live shows, I played her doing Baby Birch from one of them on my radio show yesterday, kinda scary how it would have been almost exactly that time a year ago she was doing it in front of me.

Indeed but need to give it another listen, it got lost in the shuffle amongst everything else I heard this week. Nice Frank Zappa plays, favorite record by him ?

I'm really digging it, my AOTY so far. I had high expectations for it and they were met. I just love her voice so much. She's playing back to back shows in my city next month and I just bought tickets to both.

I actually thought pretty much the same thing about the eleven minute song, there's a really good bit but the rest of the song doesn't do anything. I'll have to listen to it a bit more before I know what to think about the rest though.

I actually haven't finished the album but from the couple songs I heard I didn't like it all too much. It's too busy and all over the place for me. I know you didn't like Intern but what did you think of Shut Up Kiss Me?

Ahha I get what you mean, I feel the same way about The Seer. I guess really long drone sequences either work for you or they don't. Even though I dislike The Seer the long buildup on songs like Bring the Sun or The Sound are god-tier.

haha yeah I fucking loved To Be Kind and I've only listened to the first 3 tracks of new album so far but it doesn't compare. The Seer bored me as well so maybe that has something to do with it.

From Ys she did Monkey & Bear and Cosmia. For the encore it was Sawdust & Diamonds because she said someone from last night's show requested it.

I saw her in December in Toronto. And I absolutely love the new Angel Olsen single. I've seen her live too and her vocals were absolutely heavenly.
