Depeche Mode - "In Your Room"
In my room? In your room!
Yeah, that's on the list too! Thanks for the writeup.
I only just played Symphony of the Night this last winter and was treated to an unforgettable experience. Then felt the same way all over again the next month when my wife picked up Hollow Knight. Both highly recommended.
The cops, the firemen, the crisis line...no one really had a clue!
Butthole Surfers - "Who Was in My Room Last Night?"
Song titles posed as questions comprised entirely of monosyllabic words.
You want an autistically-coded sci-fi main character? The Murderbot Diaries have you covered.
"So I says to Mabel, I says..."
Does that predate The Simpsons, or is it just that good a line?
Butthole Surfers announce deluxe 30th anniversary Electriclarryland reissue, remixed in 5.1 and featuring more than 3 hours of demos, outtakes, and remixes.
Pearl Jam - "Do the Evolution"
Much like the "return to monke" meme, the themes of this song and video explore the dubious privilege of the "higher beings."
Also, similar groove and vocal performance.
But have you learned to swim?
When R2 gives up and lets go, his final little punctuated whack to shut R2's tool hatch...that might be my favorite character beat in the entire series. Like, "That's right, fucker!"
I studied ancient Mesoamerican cultures in college and did a photo series on the destruction and disappearance of their cities and cultures by European colonists. At Dzibilchaltun, Spanish settlers dismantled a Mayan temple stone by stone and rebuilt it as a Catholic chapel literally feet away. Fuckin' shame.
