What are you listening to?

[Cthulhu]

Yes, but also a bit gimmicky and most of their other work doesn't do much for me :/.

This guy though (the captions have lyrics translated)

 

[Rose_of_Night]

Been listening to Buck Tick all day and randomly tearing up. Fly high, Acchan.

Another year, another time I can't decide which of these two songs titled "Halloween" I like better on Halloween.

This should come as a surprise to absolutely nobody.

[Nanaki Skywalker]

Yet another new song from one of my favorite bands off an album coming our next month.

[Ghost X]

My top ten for 2023, at least from the list of samples available from Triple J, in order of preference:

1. Uneasy [ft. Lil Wayne] - Jon Baptiste
2. Padam Padam - Kylie Minogue
3. AEIOU - PNAU & Empire Of The Sun
4. Welcome to the DCC - Nothing But Thieves
5. On & On (Again) - Confidence Man & Daniel Avery
6. Gila Monster - King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard
7. Witchcraft - King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard
8. Treat Me Better - Teen Jesus and the Jean Teasers
9. Viper Room - Thornhill
10. Today - Safia

Bit top heavy in pop this year. I was struggling once I had picked eight songs, so had to go through the sample list twice, which is a first for me of all the years I've been doing this (iirc). The two that didn't make the list, which might be worth a listen, are:

Dead End - Blusher
Samantha Jones - Matilda Pearl

Is AI Horror a new genre? I mean, it works.

BACK TO THE FURRRRONT

 

[Dawnbreaker]

You need not have come to my lair
You do not know who you'll find in there
I sink my claws into the snow
For all that you've forgotten me, passive show

For there's a corner out amongst the white
Where someone is waiting for you to arrive
And though you're searching for what you might never find
He'll be there waiting for all of your life

I could not ignore the call of the night
To return to the haunt you would have me deny
No, I could never tell you where I had been
For you could never answer them

But there's a corner out amongst the white
Where someone is waiting for you to arrive
And the one you're holding is not the one you left behind
He'll be there waiting for all of your life

And though our coats are all at one with the snow
I could not turn away from all I wish I did not know
All I wish you had not shown

[My Lair]

 

[Dawnbreaker]

Does the wolf apologize?
(Does the wolf apologize?)
Should the lion say his grace
When he takes his mark?
Should the lion say his grace
(Should the lion say his grace?)

I do what I need to
What I have to
To survive (To survive)
I do what I need to
What I have to
And you can try
To be civilized
But I’m gonna, stay alive
But I’m gonna, stay alive

The hurricane don't step aside when it hits the coast
The hurricane don't step aside, demands control
The mountain won’t fall to its knees
When the west wind blows
The mountain won’t fall to its knees
(The mountain won’t fall to its knees)

I do what I need to
What I have to
To survive (To survive)
I do what I need to
What I have to
And you can try
To be civilized
But I’m gonna, stay alive
But I’m gonna, stay alive
Yeah, I'm gonna, stay alive

(Yeah, I’m gonna stay alive)
(Stay alive)
Closer than a friend, I can be your enemy
Closer than a friend, feed on your calamity
Closer than a friend, I can be your enemy
Closer than a friend, feed on your calamity
Yeah, I’m gonna stay alive

Closer than a friend, I can be your enemy
Closer than a friend, feed on your calamity
Closer than a friend, I can be your enemy
Closer than a friend, feed on your calamity

[Stay Alive]

A little dose of blasphemy on Baby Jesus Day from a band whose name literally translates to "God killing".

You shout it out
But I can't hear a word you say
I'm talking loud not saying much

I'm criticized, but all your bullets ricochet
Shoot me down, but I get up

I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose
Fire away, fire away
Ricochet, you take your aim
Fire away, fire away

You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium

Cut me down
But it's you who'll have further to fall
Ghost town and haunted love

Raise your voice
Sticks and stones may break my bones
Talking loud not saying much

I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose
Fire away, fire away
Ricochet, you take your aim
Fire away, fire away

You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium

I am titanium

I am titanium

Stone-hard, machine gun
Firing at the ones who run
Stone-hard as bulletproof glass

You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium

You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
I am titanium

[Titanium]
