fine. time for Metallica's AWESOMEST song but also as is tradition

11 09 09 10 15 13

hmm. That's either a fighter of some sort or they died in a tragic orc raid just as they finished training and I'm gonna reroll.

sadly the Starii Olsa cover of One (Metallica's best song ever imho) cuts out before THE REALLY AWESOME BIT

I'd LIKE to listen to the original, but I'm in a coffeeshop and playing air drums to the point of breaking a sweat to THE REALLY AWESOME BIT would probably upset people.

I note that this is in part the worst song on the Black Album because it's sandwiched between Through the Never, which is so noteworthy I don't remember it, and THE AWESOMEST!!!1! BESTEST SONG! on the Black Album.

oh wow they actually made the worst song on the Black Album more tolerable

here is a cover which is far more true to the noble spirit of Mother Russia

(three guys on a couch in a dingy apartment even if admittedly they ARE sober)

I really like some of the lyrical changes they needed to make to fit the meter!

@kistaro look, just because *one* cartoon has catapults does not mean we're *all* associated with medieval siege equipment

whoa somehow I missed the part where Hellboy II was scored by Danny Elfman

and now listening, it's a very good and admittedly very Danny score

it's a real shame the movie really REALLY makes me irrationally angry every time I try to watch it.

fine, seasonal it is

hee hee hee, CHRISTMASTIME!

somehow I went from The Nutcracker to John Barry soundtracks which in turn gets me to;

WELL I'VE HEARD THAT IT'S GOLD
I'VE HEARD THAT IT'S A FINGER
HEY DON'T SHOOT ME
I'M JUST THE BLOODY SINGER
SOME FOLKS LIKE 'EM BRONZE
OTHERS LIKE 'EM SILVER
BUT THIS MAN LOVES HIS GOLD
IT IS HIS FAVORITE THINGER

oh YEAH it's the part of the Barry soundtrack where the scuba divers attack Fort Knox!

no wait, that's after the astronauts chase him in speedboats in Thailand

after he plays baccarat with the shark

@elecray7k originally "Paardenpis" before the English took over

soon followed by, of course, stomping around on tiptoe, elbows tucked to chest, two fingers out on each hand, during "Glorification of the Chosen One"

what do you mean "that's weird"

BUT SUDDENLY oh no we got ballet sheet music mixed up and inserted parts of Rite of Spring into The Nutcracker OH NOOOOOES

* plays "Mystic Circle of the Young Girls" on celesta *

FINE I'M LISTENING TO THE NUTCRACKER SUITE BEFORE THANKSGIVING BECAUSE IT MAY AS WELL BE DECEMBER ALREADY

man I'm not sure what I wish Bluesky would do more, mute keywords or allow DMs

@fairydoctor420 it gets even better, if you get to The Whisperer in Darkness? The whole thing starts off with dramatic flash floods in Vermont/NH in 1928.

I thought that was an invention until I got this book about 2' gauge slate-hauling railroads in Maine. The thing the railroad never recovered from was there were massive flash floods in 1928 which washed away a lot of their bridges.

current mood; watching a clip of probably a shiba inu floating in space, on repeat, while playing Khachaturian's "Adagio" from "Gayaneh."

My dudes, even if I wanted complete strangers’ fucking political opinions while I’m trying to drink coffee and draw, I wouldn’t want them at that volume.
