15:04 - Desha

genuinely surreal to see system of a down on stage in 2026 and to make it even weirder fucking acid bath is opening for them???

13:35 - Kirinyale

Reminds me of Dark Tranquillity's Archetype. But that, at least, was a one-off and the last track on a EP.

13:28 - Kirinyale

I mean, I can listen to different kinds of music, but usually separately. Not all contrasts work together. This was even less welcome than Dead Gardens on Once...

13:27 - Kirinyale

That Seven Spires album sounds pretty good, thanks for that. But unexpected black metal tracks in the middle of a pretty gentle sympho album are like zombie jump scares.

11:54 - corrupt

The reason the site is slow right now is Google. Unfortunately I can't make the time to adjust controls right now. We'll have to sit it out this time.

11:51 - Ansercanagicus

how long does the error "429 too many request" last? I just opened 3 tabs (1h ago) and now it seems I'm blocked for whatever new page I'm requesting (i won't be able to refresh and see shoutbox answer lol)

10:40 - 24emd

Woe
