Frenzy is peak Bloopy taste. Lifeboat is great too. A little odd after seeing the film it inspired: Lifepod (1993), which is more dramatic for the occupants due to the temperature extremes and more of them getting bumped off. Young and Innocent is alright. Has some good moments such as the...

Point being if he so much as hits a triangle or shakes maracas he can eat his words about claiming to retire before Slayer :p

Well maybe not seriously, but for a bit of fun once he gets over some of his ability declining. He could even have another guitarist show up and just do vocals at some point.

I don't think Slayer playing 8 or so reunion shows (with another one booked for late this year) negates the fact that they're retired. Because Megadeth will probably play occasional shows to mark certain anniversaries etc. too. The retired period being when touring is no longer work and they...

Now that I've seen all his talkies at least twice... 5 worst Hitchcock films: 1. Downhill 2. The Manxman 3. The Ring 4. The Paradine Case - yawn, apparently even Hitch was bored making this one. Still, we're now into the 6/10s already as he was that good. 5. Sabotage - somewhat miserable as...

How about the desk hot dog in The Exterminator, haha: Some sources claim the idea was borrowed from Kojak, but I can't find that scene.

On the topic, there's a rock bar in Auckland with DJs and a dance floor complete with stripper pole. They play a lot of nu metal and other popular stuff. Live bands play in the smaller upstairs bar, so I can't really complain about whatever helps keep a venue running. The layout is daft though -...

Right now it's only got info about my solo industrial/noise projects (need to add the poppy single from the online band I'm in also). But eventually I'll add the following: - A tool for tracking all the concerts you've been to (actually already there for my use, but I need to add some features...

Making my website more mobile friendly. I don't have much on it now but there are always grand plans and things I should add/change. No good replacement for LyricWiki has ever shown up so I suppose I'll put my lyrics on my own site.

Yeah, not claiming it's the greatest ever, but it actually sounds like I'm listening to a fav band again. I figure I like music that focuses on certain areas of frequencies. Too much going on in the lower frequencies thumping my head dampens the effect of thrash metal, and it probably works the...

That I'm small and puny is one of creation's deceptions. I have the libido of a prized stud. But then I dream fairly regularly about playing Worms Armageddon or watching motorsport and I've hardly done either of those things in several years either...

Sometimes I have a dream and I think, well no point typing that shit up. Then I remember UM and decide I should subject some poor fuckers to it, so it may as well be you. I dreamt I was having sex with Angelina Jolie. I nutted so hard it went right through her and she disappeared, leaving me to...

I'm enjoying it quite a lot. More aligned to the band's middle era I dig - Youthanasia, The World Needs a Hero, and Countdown (my fav of theirs). I'd perhaps rank the new album just above The System Has Failed (the last one I cared for). I liked 'The Scorpion', but that album has a bit of lamer...

What random shit has Bloopy been listening to? 2025 edition of just filling out my list with New Zealand bands given I wasn't inspired by much else I heard. 1. VVarp - Power Held in Stone 2. Pentagram - Lightning in a Bottle 3. Witchcult - Support Local Business 4. Deathnir - Where the Wicked...
