Yeah The Soft Moon is very unique, I think his sound is getting more industrial and experimental with each release. I prefer post-punk so some tracks are challenging for my ears but I'm glad he's pushing the boundaries and doing his thing!

I had no idea this collab existed. Thank you Aussies for educating the rest of us 🙏

Loved Garbage when I was a 90s kid and I still love Garbage now. No Gods No Masters is an album that goes pretty hard and it's a whole double album.

Totally discovered Garbage from playing Gran Turismo 2 😂

I live in Manila and there's basically two seasons: hella rain vs no rain. We're in the hella rain period. This is when all the typhoons, monsoons, storms, floods, etc. happen and it goes on from June to November.

So to commemorate the middle of the rainy season, here's a live performance by Lola Amour performing "Raining in Manila". I'm not familiar with them but the song is a little jazzy and all the dudes crammed in that bus are totally all in sync.

Genius: English translation

THIS SONG NEVER AGES I will stan Ladytron forever

oh lmao "nine nine nine emergency" is the chorus to Girlschool's Emergency. Silly British musicians feeling obligated to use the actual emergency number.

I've never heard of 999 before, this is a great track! It has more melody than I was expecting.

Boy this is a lot. Are there ones you personally listen to?

Needles In The Camel's Eye by Brian Eno

Elements of this sounds extremely early 90s alternative to me. He was so ahead of his time.

Why did a Girlschool song start playing in my head? 🤔

The Arcade Fire's Haiti

https://youtu.be/tGvpUgo7ayY Controversies with members of the band aside, this song makes me cry every time. I have no connection to Haiti but the poignant vocals really pulls at your heart strings and makes you mourn for a lost homeland. The French lines really help too.

Nope it's English, it's an Irish-Filipino production. Most of it is filmed in Ireland and there are some flashback scenes in the Philippines but they're subtitled.

I like the movie, it goes in really surprising places. I haven't seen another English-language horror movie covering global south labour exploitation so it deffo gets bonus points for that one.

Nothing wrong with liking pop but she has vastly more money than I will ever earn. I rather support indie or up and coming performers that won't take my financial support for granted.

Also helps to enjoy a wide variety of music so if one scene is getting overpriced or doesn't tour your area, you can still enjoy and support other acts.
