Fiona Apple - Fetch the Bolt Cutters
I voted for Fiona Apple because I fully intend on listening to her new album but the last album I listened to in full was Filigree and Shadow by This Mortal Coil
I listened to Fetch the Bolt Cutters on repeat yesterday and I acknowledge its genius but I couldn't quite get hooked, but I don't think its purpose is to get you hooked
It feels like it's just exactly what Fiona Apple felt like she had to say. It really feels like a masterpiece, awesome-in-the-religious-sense, almost hostile in its uncompromising vision

I think I'm missing something by not watching Tiger King.
Then again, as someone named "Tony" who as a kid got a ton of shit for his love of tigers, in no small part thanks to Frosted Flakes... well, I'd only be happy if the tigers won. And I don't know what that would mean in the context of the show.

@Surfpossum I have an elgato hd60s that I only use for capturing console games. When you say you're playing destiny, are you doing it on a console? I haven't used one that is interior like the one you've got. I only use it to capture consoles though, anything on the pc should go straight into obs without needing the extra step.

Yeah, luckily it seems the time I switched the encoder in OBS to NVENC didn't take, so I just did that again and it seems to have gotten rid of the stuttering that I was trying to fix in the first place.
I dunno why I assumed the Elgato card would somehow take some of the load off of my computer, but I can go back to ignoring it forever now.
I’m an old now which means all my favorite bands are now entering their downward slide
5-10 years from now we’ll start doing the reunion shows and everyone will be 50 lbs fatter
You know, I can't think of any big comebacks lately. A big comeback like Elvis had with primetime specials and sold out theaters and such. The Foo Fighters' 2020 comeback tour was canceled due to the Plague.

I've heard very good things about the new Strokes album but I don't even know how I feel about rock music anymore
I don't share the same sentiment about rock but I would more describe this album as rock-adjacent pop than rock.
The album is evocative of a long drive on a warm sunny day, a barbecue with good friends, and sleeping in because you're a little hungover and have nowhere to be. Your mileage may vary.

Although for me this album is more associated with the time before the quarantine, when I would sometimes get up at 3-4 am to go to work so I could get some time to experiment.

Like my favorite game is actually monochromatic and violent!
Of course it’s a freeware soyboy pixel art game about death but

Really strikes me as a nice cross between their last two albums, with splashes of Juicebox here and there.
