what perfect album came out the year you turned 16?

To everyone that sees this:

What is your favorite series of commercials that could be a television/streaming series?

- Limu Emu & Doug
- Dr Rick: How to Un-Become Your Parents
- Flo, Jamie and the Progressive Crew
- Your Cousin from Boston

Or maybe it’s one I’m missing…

Despised Icon - Shadow Work

My Boys from Montreal are Back!!!

THIS is my type of Deathcore. Heavy doses of death metal with nice chunk of hardcore to keep things fresh. Steve is the MVP (no pun intended) of this album. His vocals are fucking nuts.

Definitely showing my age with this one lol…

Post a perfect album from the 90’s that isn’t Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden or Alice In Chains.

I see your 4, and raise you another 4…

The Acacia Strain: You Are Safe From God Here

Holy. Fucking. Shit!
Another one of my all time favorite bands just dropped one of the best albums of the year (and possibly their own discography). This shit is HARD and utterly terrifying.
And to my #AEW mutuals, there’s a Brody King feature!

Replace a character in a movie with a wrestler:

Swerve Strickland is pretty much an amalgamation of multiple Wesley Snipes characters.

The ruthless mogul of Nino Brown, the cool badass of Blade, and the complete psychopath of Simon Phoenix.

Ace Frehley (1951 - 2025)

I like to think he went back to his home planet to fight in an intergalactic war.

In all seriousness, Rest in Power.

Konosuke. Fucking. Takeshita.

Happy #LetterboxdFriday!

If can’t already tell that we are deep into spooky season, then my #LastFourWatched should be a good enough hint…

Happy #LetterboxdFriday!

On this special #LastFourWatched, you can clearly see where September ends and October begins…

September 30th. October 1st.

Probably this…

Revocation: New Gods, New Masters

Got my pre-order for this on Monday (album drops on Friday). After 4 listens, I can safely say this albums rules. It’s closer to the Prog styles of Great is Our Sin than the Death Metal leanings of the last 2 albums. It still packs a heavy punch though.

Rest In Power Tomas Lindberg

Damn… we’re losing a lot of the Metal greats lately.
Slaughter of the Soul will always be an important album in my collection. An album that’s as heavy as it is catchy.

If you never listened to it and are into Melodic Death Metal, check it out.

Between the Buried and Me - The Blue Nowhere

At this point, BTBAM need to start scoring movies. It’s the next logical step for them. Especially if they did animated movies. Having a full on ballad was a nice touch.
Parts of this album are fucking hilarious.

Overall, I’m having a fun time.
September 15, 2025 at 7:38 PM
This definitely sums up a lot about me…
September 8, 2025 at 10:06 AM
Decided to come back this week on #LetterboxdFriday, since I have a very interesting #LastFourWatched

- A Blaxploitation Classic
- My most recent Theater Visit
- A fucked up G Rated Movie
- One of my all time Favorite Horror/ Thriller Movies

For my #FilmSky mutuals who don’t know, Paul Walter Hauser had a wrestling match this past Friday against QT Marshall for ROH.
It’s kind of awesome. He even uses the Golden Globe he won as a weapon.

You can watch it on YouTube.

Workout Album of the Day:
Supreme Clientele 2 by Ghostface Killah

Does it match the highs of the original? No, but that’s HARD to do. It shows that Ghost can still rap with the best of them and has a consistency better than most of his peers. And some of the samples on this are insane!

#Hip-Hop

In honor of Brody King winning the AEW Tag Titles, my Workout Album of the Day is God’s Hate Self-Titled album.

If you’re a fan of Metal influenced Hardcore, I highly recommend it. Shit goes hard, especially during strength training.

It’s been awhile…
But now I’m back on #LetterboxdFriday!
