06.06.24 | Oh! The Ocean absolutely fit in here! Spot on rec. I have the deluxe editions of most of their discog, lovely pieces of art, specially the Pelagial acrylic box |

06.06.24 | Well to be fair Ulcerate does fit that 'thinking man's metal' tag. I don't remember if it was a guy from Pelican or other Post-Metal band who said it but that tag suits a lot of metal acts because of their changing, slow-mid paced tempo combined with intricate melodies and complex songwritings. I definitely lean towads that kind of pensive state inducing metal

06.06.24 | List doesn't have Ulcerate or Pelican 0/10 |

06.06.24 | @jrlikestodance why the rec? I'm genuinely curious |

Literally all tech-death
Leprous - Bilateral

06.06.24 | Meshuggers with Catch 33 also fits imo, sort of a paradoxical analogy for mental cage and self limitations |

06.06.24 | Good breakdowns and 2-steps. It will make you think about whooping ass |

06.06.24 | "Literally all tech-death"
This is like the big bang theory of thinking man's metal |

06.06.24 | Also Kaczynski is a misanthropic pseudo-intellectual. If you want to eat lentils and rage against society then John Zerzan is a better bet. |

06.06.24 | there are like three good bands here |

I think he had very right points on technology and its effects on humanity, specially those related to what he called the power process, but Zerzan is definitely a better bet, although my real eco goat philosopher is Derrick Jensen. Endgame books are a must read for anyone interested in eco-activism, whether you agree with his conclusions or not. |

06.06.24 | Alas, I am a techno-optimist who is excited about the trajectory of AI, as well as the potential of Quantum Computers to profoundly change our world for the better. We are heading into a new age of enlightenment. |
Frost15
06.06.24 | We are in opposite sides of the techno-philosophy spectrum then haha |
bighubbabuddha
06.06.24 | Yeah, my main concerns for society revolve around the fossil fuel industry and future pandemics. I believe renewable technology needs more investment from governments and the private sector. I also think we need significantly more investment in lab-grown meat technology to eventually transition away from animal agriculture. |

06.06.24 | i think this is the most suck a list has ever listed |
