How about top 5 most fucked up/disturbing things you've ever dreamed?
I considered the topic after a particularly fucked up dream, but then I went and had another top tier Bloopy dream moment. So I'm gonna let my subconscious simmer over the course of the year and see what other utterly sick shit it comes up with. They often seem allergy-driven, or it may be that allergies change my sleep pattern and help me remember the horrors. Anyway, I wouldn't wanna come straight out with 5 that nobody can compete with.
So in the meantime here's 5 WTF things I've dreamt that didn't even make the Bloopy top 10:
- Refereeing a 3-way fight including racing driver Tim Slade who'd animorphed into a python. I had a view of my own forehead as he sliced across it with a garrotte wire (presumably held by his mouth and tail), leaving a long flap of oddly thick skin dangling. It hardly bled at all and I fitted it back into place. Then I saw myself with huge eyes, asleep. I used my fingers to lift one of my own eyelids and tried to coax out a piece of lint.
- Helping my sister to breed some sort of biotech pets in a toy store. The little male's long pencil dick was raw and bleeding by the time he'd impregnated over 20 females.
- I was an astronaut on a moon with rivers. The rivers had solid bits in them that looked like the marshmallow pieces from Lucky Charms cereal. To collect samples to be tested for life, I had to get out of my spacesuit and lie down in the river, allowing any moon lifeforms present to assimilate with me.
- Racing driver Allan Simonsen's fatal crash, except he had long shaggy hair, and no helmet nor sufficient seatbelt so he hit his head on the tree. He stumbled away from the crash but started to feel sick and vomited. I found him lying down in a shower next to a cooked steak after having lost control of his bowels, and then saw car parts arranged on tables for examination.
- Just beyond the doorway of a bathroom installed in a cave, there was a horrifying alien creature on the ground. It was the size and shape of a small melon, with a wedge-shaped opening revealing it was something like a cocooning insect or a gooey giant isopod. It launched itself at my arm and bit me, at which point it kinda resembled a shrunken head of a big cat. I prised it off with a block of tree bark or something like that, hit it into the toilet and found it was too big to flush. I laughed as I woke up, knowing it'll smell like piss when it gets me next dream.

5 more since a ticketing app that stupidly downloads my whole history reminded me of a couple:
- Guttermouth
- SNFU (but thankfully they made up for it 5 years later)
- The Adicts
- Sunn O)))
...w/ Pelican (I forgot this one got as far as going on sale before the Aussie promoters failed to live up to Sunn's eccentric requirements and the band pulled the plug)

Top 5 metal releases of June 2021:

Killer cosmic prog/tech death metal. Formerly known as Teleport.

Heavy as fuck death metal, crushing.

Epic black metal, melodic/atmospheric/symphonic without being limp-wristed.

Beautifully textured pop album, "Be Sweet" is still my single of the year so far.

Top 5 metal releases of July 2021:
Top 5 non-metal releases of July 2021:
- Galvanizer - Prying Sight of Imperception
Devastating Finnish deathgrind that dips into groovy Pungent Stench territory at times.
- Vouna - Atropos
One-woman multi-instrumentalist funeral doom metal from Washington. Impressed me massively!
- Hexorcist - Evil Reaping Death
Seriously heavy death/thrash with an amazing drum sound.
- Krossfyre - Rites of Extermination
Finally followed-up their 2017 EP! Sharp and savage black/thrash.
- Expunged - Into Never Shall
That dude from Ice War has another band, this time it's basically Carnage-worship, but doomier.
Top 5 non-metal releases of July 2021:
- The Flying Luttenbachers - Negative Infinity
The gods of brutal prog! Could be counted as metal because of how heavy and grindy it is.
- Anika - Change
Really good arty dubby post-punk by a woman who kinda reminds me of Nico at times, but way more upbeat.
- Shirley Collins - Crowlink
Follow-up EP to her amazing album from last year. English folk spiced with field recordings.
- Descendents - 9th & Walnut
Nothing mindblowing but it's awesome to have one of my favourite hardcore bands back. Catchy shit.
- Desperate Journalist - Maximum Sorrow!
Nice alternative rock with a bassy/strummy post-punk vibe to it.

Top 5 metal releases of August 2021:
- Diskord - Degenerations
Bassy avant-psych tech death for people who usually hate tech death.
- Wolves in the Throne Room - Primordial Arcana
Epic sound, powerful drumming, love it.
- Nocturnal - Serpent Death
Vicious cymbal-slaughtering black/thrash.
- Nunslaughter - Red Is the Color of Ripping Death
All the 80's underground sounds together just assaulting you with riff after riff of nasty metal of death!
- Serpent Column - Katartisis
Blackened mathcore except it actually works and isn't a terrible meme.
- Sturgill Simpson - The Ballad of Dood & Juanita
Stripped to the bone Appalachian outlaw country music and bluegrass, and the whole thing is a concept album so there's an even heavier than usual emphasis on storytelling.
- Chrome - Scaropy
70's spacey experimental post-punk legends still chugging along. Pretty heavy.
- $uicideboy$ - Long Term Effects of Suffering
Trapped out NOLA southern rap. Better than their first album at least!
- Fragile - Beyond
For anybody who doesn't know, these guys are a Yes tribute band that started 20 years ago and at some point started writing original material that is basically solid Yes-worship symphonic prog.
- Stuck - Content That Makes You Feel Good
Pretty cool art/post-punk EP. Their album from last year was also good.

First half of counting down my top 10 most fucked up/disturbing dreams, because why not? Well, you'll know why not if you read them.
10. Sitting in the back seat of a car while my mother is in the front passenger seat, and she's happily letting me remove chunks of her back with a barbecue fork and eat them.
9. Kate Winslet showing me her penis (first wet dream, sometime after watching Titanic)
8. A machine that shrunk people back to kid size, somehow powered by the skeletons of victims of death by snu-snu (known in my dream as the ancient practice of 'Cattling'), fossilised mid-coitus. The dream zoomed in on a skull with a crazy expression and I woke up yelling.
7. Repeatedly diving headfirst onto concrete from a height to smash my skull open, not to die but rather to spill some of the contents out to try and appease vampire(s) who were hungry for my bloody thoughts. The main vampire I saw in the dream was the husband of a woman who wanted to start a relationship with me, but I figure she was one of them as well. Anyway, I started seeing her the following weekend.
6. My sister eating a bowl of my richly-coloured diarrhoea (the colour matching real life as I'd gotten salmonella poisoning at the time)

Without giving much away, if my top 5 were real-life occurrences they'd certainly all send me to either prison or a psychiatrist. Or both. Tune in again in another few months. Maybe I'll have a bonus dream in the meantime.

Damage Case
These are very interesting and sinister-sounding dreams. You should consider visiting a psychologist, though.

Top 5 metal releases of September 2021:
- Lvcifyre - The Broken Seal
Intense death metal, like Morbid Angel meets Incantation, kinda.
- Suffering Sights - When Sanity Becomes Insanity
Chilean death/thrash. FFO: Death, Possessed, Pestilence, Necrophagia.
- Thecodontion / Vessel of Iniquity - The Permian-Triassic Extinction Event
Not a huge fan of Vessel of Iniquity's side but the Thecodontion tracks absolutely rule. Avant-war metal.
- Portrait - At One With None
It's Portrait. Nothing mindblowing but it's still some solid M.F./K.D. heavy metal.
- Hellsword - Cold is the Grave
Awesome Slovenian no bullshit black/death/thrash!
- Amyl and The Sniffers - Comfort to Me
Vital Aussie pub punk, boiling with raw energy.
- Maggot Heart / Okkultokrati - Split
Even though Okkultokrati play a weird kind of doomy black punk I'm putting this on the non-metal side because I'm mostly psyched for the Maggot Heart material. Killer post-punk/garage rock.
- The Doppelgangaz - G Pack, Vol. 3
Consistent rap duo from N.Y. but on this new EP they seriously pay homage to the bouncy, funky west coast beats.
- Little Simz - Sometimes I Might Be Introvert
Smooth, jazzy, soulful British femcee that excels at changing flows and storytelling. Reminds me of Bahamadia at times.
- Charley Crockett - Music City USA
Good ol' overly prolific Charley Crockett. He doesn't blow minds but he's trusty, never crap, always worth a jam.
