I decided to go for a walk about an hour ago at the time of posting while it was still storming out and give Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge another listen and to also clear my head about some shit but that’s not what I’m here to focus on. Overall, I still prefer the black parade over three cheers due to the black parade’s storytelling and the way it plays with different genres for certain songs but maybe it’s just because the storyline of someone dying from cancer hits a soft spot for me. Does this mean I hate three cheers? Not at all. I do like some songs off of it but it might take me a few more front to back listens before I can properly enjoy the storyline and other songs in it.
My walk was a bit hectic since there was a huge thunderstorm going on and a bit of high winds so I’d have to hold my umbrella very steady and fix my hair every 20-30 seconds. Glasses got some rain splashed on them so it slowly got harder to see through them. Though, now I’m just bored and not very tired so if you’re reading this post at anytime and you want to talk or just give an album recommendation, my dms are always open and I’m always down to talk.
Thought I woke up at 1:50 pm but it was am. Now I gotta find some shit to do.
Rest in peace to an underground rapper/producer and veteran of the New York Fire Department, Ka. I listened to Orpheus vs the sirens a while back but I remember falling in love with the production and samples throughout the album and Ka’s raspy vocals as the whole album reminded me of something by MF DOOM. If you have the time, please check out this album, you won’t regret it. As for me, I’m gonna check some of his solo projects he made.
The official statement from his insta
Followed through with my plans and I gave Resin another shot and I think I find it almost on par with Ramona. I remember talking with a mutual in the past about it and I remember describing its vibes on par with an infomercial VHS which I believe is somewhat accurate but with this relisten, I felt like I managed to piece together a bit of a story with it. I feel as though it’s a story of Bill after his success with his album Ramona and trying to make it more out there, hence the intro of the album with the character DJ Hentai Daddy who makes fun of him and his music and tells him how these people want something fire. This leads to Bill incorporating and emulating some rap that you’d probably hear coming from the south or directly mentioning other artists like Big Boi of Outkast or DJ Screw but also hiding away his true music or perhaps his real self on the other half of tracks. Near the end he begins to realize just how lonely and draining it is to try and ride this wave of success yet there’s no conclusion, as if the story is still going or Bill is trying to still find an answer to his problem. Even if I’m overthinking this or I’m just sounding like I’m spewing bullshit, this album had struck a chord with me that I’d never knew it could hit. I might not relate to the fame of it or the success but just the vulnerability he talks about in some of the lyric just hit different and had me see it in a new light.
I’m sorry if the last sentence sounded depressing. I also managed to get two pics that I’d like to share of an abandoned building I’ve posted about before. Think of it like an update.
The power to the building seems to have finally been shut off. I don’t know if the power was shut off manually by workers or was knocked out by the storms in the area but I can say one thing for sure, it’s probably never coming back on. The area around it was much darker in person than the way they appear now when I took the pictures.

thinking about that gambling addict who made the most sophisticated bomb the fbi had come across (at the time) and put it in a casino as revenge and the fbi couldn't disarm it so they had to evacuate the area

Felt like showing off some of my music collection and i should probably start simple. First off, this is my current portable cassette player. I don't find myself using it as much since it's a bit shaky at points and feels like they play at a lower pitch unless it is completely still.
Here are my custom cassettes. News at 11, Blvcklvnd Rvdix 66.6, Who Really Cares, and King Of The Mischievous South vol 1 were recorded from my iPhone to my cd/cassette player via aux and blutooth. However the rest of these pictured were recorded off of a different portable Walkman which was somewhat cheap and I didn't know how to properly record them and they sound extremely off. Might rerecord them someday.
Here are some metal cassettes I picked up at a local music store. I first started out with Deathcrush by Mayhem and I enjoyed it and figured that next time I went, I'd pick up at least 5 metal albums to dip my toes into the water. I actually ended up picking 5 metal CDs and 5 metal cassettes. I'd say my favorite metal cassette from these pics would have have to be Self Loather by Ghost Bath.
Here are my rap cassettes. Most of these I ordered from artists/record labels online merch store but I'd say my favorite cassettes from these have to be the Devon Hendryx cassettes (Dreamcast Summer Songs, JOECHILLWORLD, The Rockwood Escape Plan, and The Ghost ~ Pop Tape.) since they were a graduation gift for myself and were limited time only or Monster Tape Zero by Groovy Kaiju because the artist actually signed the case and the package wrap.
Lastly, here are some miscellaneous cassettes I picked up recently from a goodwill because they caught my eye and I thought they were interesting. If you saw and read through this post, I thank you for your time.
