i kind of enjoyed the aussie jingle bells vid but the 12 days of aussie christmas one was just painful

that sounds awful

tbh this year i dont think ive heard a single christmas song until today

cuz i avoid malls like the plague and at my work we listen to what we want

which is not christmas music

kinda nice i didnt even realize til now

Lol at that aussie jingle bells video. I'll be hearing Christmas music in my house all the time when I'm not wearing headphones these days.

it's hard to concentrate on the video when you're wondering wtf is going on with that dog the whole time

I heard so many third-rate Coldplay impersonator Christmas songs driving back from my grandparents' house today swear to fuck

but this is a surprisingly posi thread so I'll counter that by saying merry chrissy all

On the topic of weird aussie shit, how about that stoner sloth shit that's been trending lately? I can't help but feel like it's satire but I know it's not. Sad.

Yeah our government is known to set a new high bar for out-of-touch-with-realityness but what are ya gonna do

how was your chrissy xing

Pretty fucking horrible thus far but I still have another 16 hours before it's over. I hope yours was good though!

why so awful :[

that may be the case now but they are labeled 'sludge' because they used to actually play it sometimes, now they just play like alt rock torche-esque 'stoner pop' whatever bullshit

havent heard this one yet but yeah fuck, yellow and green was so piss poor it was actually embarrassing

Yea these guys really haven't been sludge since their debut and even then they were always their own thing

Kind of sad really that they and Mastodon are the most popular "sludge metal" bands of the new millennium

First and Second and their split with Unpersons were their most sludgy releases

High hats on Morningstar absolutely shit the bed. They almost hurt at some points.

Really a shame since it is a great track otherwise

I haven't listened to it with headphones on but the high hats don't bother me. Morningstar is the best track IMO

i have some pretty neutral sounding headphones and it sounds worse there than on my soundsystem which is more into the bassy parts

Some awesome riffs

"Purple is an interesting shade. Mix the fierceness of red and the calmness of blue and your get a concoction of juxtaposing definitions. Essentially this is the similar outcome to Baroness’ fifth album that illustrates the musical interpretation of contrasting feelings, or rather mixing their debut album “Red” with their sophomore “Blue”. But by combining two colours, or albums, together a new shade is formed and with that comes new and exciting qualities. Wisdom, mystery and power are three characteristics that distinguish purple and each attribute encapsulates Baroness’s new album with unique fervour."

well nobody on this site has but I'm sure plenty of people have

spado seems to be always talking out his ass though
