 | Dedes Hey so what is this I read on the staff doc about a subset discord being formed? I'm not sure entirely what it entails or what the fully fleshed idea behind it is but if it comes to fruition I'd v much be interested in being a part of it
|
 | Hawks Just turned John Larkin on!!!
|
 | ArsMoriendi No, I do not. Not in there anymore at all, actually. Anat probably still mods, ask him
|
 | twlight Hey you. I?m the wrong person to ask unfortunately. Wish I was more on a taking basis with users but I?m not in the discord
|
 | Kusangii Hey man, you would probably dig the latest Imperial Circus Dead Decadence album if you're interested in some refreshing melodeath. Just ignore the band name and album cover lol
|
 | foxblood Yeah I get it. Feels like a long time ago now. I think it could be cool since it?s not a common type of music here and it?s something I was obsessed with for a long time so maybe others would enjoy it too
|
| foxblood Have you ever thought about reviewing Jia Peng Fang - Sho one day? That would be awesome
|
 | Trifolium No worries Kor! Hope you're doing well.
|
| Trifolium Yes he is! He knows better how everything works there, I'm hardly ever there.
|
| Hawks I had only heard The Banished Heart previously and didn't like it at all but this one is straight fire.
|
| Hawks #1 - New Oceans of Slumber is fantastic as is your review. #2 - Are you on RYM?
|
| Hawks Absolutely bro. They make brutality so intricate yet so damn fun. They've become my fav dm band of all time. New album is gonna be insane.
|
| Hawks Nice rating for Psalms. ;]
|
 | DePlazz Also this :-) https://www.sputnikmusic.com/review/88913/Alarum-Circles-End/

|
 | Jash I?ve been struggling to be creative in any way other than cooking for over the last year, I music making music, writing, and painting so much, but the cloud has taken away my drive, even though I know it would help. So I?m happy you were able to get back to your creative mind, hoping I do soon too
|
| Jash I know I mentioned it in the thread, but your poem was great, and it was a very vulnerable thing to share that, so kudos to you in both aspects. Would love to read more of your work at any time you feel comfortable or start writing more. Much love my fellow 15 year sput bud
|
 | Butkuiss I hope u r ok Koris I feel like I don?t see you around as much lately!
|
 | CaptainDooRight What?s up dude, did you change your name? Or what was your previous name?
|
 | DistantDylann Same here! I always loved Beavis and Butt-head for it just being straightforward dumb fun, but Daria was one of my favorite characters from it for how much she stuck out. Probably the only serious character. Her show was brilliant from it's more serious stance and plot-driven episodes, I wish we could get a revival on it as well.
|
| DistantDylann Really love your Daria picture, that's one of my favorite cartoons personally!
|
| Trifolium Oooooooh that sounds right up my alley indeed!! Thanks for the rec, I think I'll use it to dispel the 18°C """Summer"""" we're having here. Hope you are well too! I've been in Lyon, France, this week, very lovely city.
|
| Trifolium Yipppeeee happpineeesssss! Good to see you again by the way!
|
| Trifolium Hi Kor! Long time no speak! I've not been on Discord for ages, but here goes:
|
| Butkuiss What is the secret to a successful marriage?
|
 | evilford Hey I just noticed ur staff, congrats!
|
 | Davil667 Bit late to the party but congrats on your promotion! Very well deserved for sure :]
|
| Butkuiss New genre just dropped: Metalkoris (its metalcore but the vocalist sounds like Donald Fagen)
|
 | dedex happy to see you with that shiny tag :]
|
| Butkuiss Do you listen to Chisel, Koris?
|
 | Pikazilla Grats! I believe in you and good luck! Hopefully, your yt channel will pick up soon as well.
|
| Butkuiss Hello dear Brendan, I am willing to waive the rapidly mounting interest on your debt to review my Knower Forever review if you review my most recent Joel Turner review instead ?
|
 | mandan Damn, hadn't noticed you were Necro with another username. Good to see ya.
|
| Butkuiss Y?all do it without the fez on, Brendo, or nah?
|
 | pizzamachine Whats your favourite track on Crunkcore Revenge
|
 | LilLioness Ditto for the Daria in my shoutbox now. lol
|
 | Mort. hootie and the blowfish review when
|
| LilLioness Every time I see your avatar, I feel like I am being judged by an animu (that I haven't watched).
|
| pizzamachine Actually yeah, let?s do that. Hit me up on discord
|
| pizzamachine That would be fun. If we could film ourselves talking somehow, that would be lit
|
 | artiswar ...also Riveire is one of the best songs
|
| artiswar you're abusing the :]stopI didn't know that! Where were you deployed? This album just takes me right back to '05-06, it's uncanny. Such a bittersweet album for a multitude of reasons
|
| artiswar what nostalgic place does Riviere take you to? If I may ask.
|
| Butkuiss You never reviewed my review Koris ?
|
 | FreakMachine damn i only realised watching you permanent waves video that rush are your favorite band m/
|
 | BaselineOOO I hadn't heard of it before, but I watched it and had a good time. Cool stuff! My profile pic shows how I feel disconnected from this world I love. I'm here, but not really fitting in, my face is somewhere else, facing the soul and not the outside world. Oh, the pic is from a manga called Homunculus, if you're wondering.
|
| Trifolium Kor did you hear this!!! https://www.sputnikmusic.com/review/87560/Bill-Evans-Live-In-Paris-1972-Vol-1/
|
 | Sabrutin hey man, just watched your Steely Dan video. Cool stuff! A nice crash course on the band. I left a lil' thumbs up. I really need to jam The Nightfly and Flaunt the Imperfection
|
| Dedes Nice Deadguy rate yo
|
 | tyman128 Dude that?s sick man! I?m in Texas for this week, but when I get back we?ll for sure have to meet up before I head back to college
|
 | Manatea Yo I told tyman to hit you up. He?s in OC.
|
| Manatea Bro i would so love to but I?m covering for someone at work and deadlines dont seem to care about my happiness :[[[[ but gimme your email just in case i free up!!
|
| DistantDylann Thank you for the comment on my review, also nice music taste
|
 | Pheromone Hehe no worries buddy. I just didn?t wanna ya accidentally missing out on next round ??
|
| Pheromone extended deadline by an hour ur welcome
|
| Pheromone Koris!! YOU HAVE THIRTY MINS TO SUBMIT A SONG QUICKKK
|
 | Pangea Koris! Be aware that even though you said you voted for the Music League, the vote doesn't seem to have gotten through. Maybe you saved instead of sending them?
|
 | Titan I can?t say that the disparity between albums jumps out at me. Sometimes the mix doesn?t always work out in the artists favor. He sounds pretty good live!
|
| Titan Do you really think he?s their biggest weakness? Or did that change in relatively recent times ;)
|
| Titan Yo dawgs! You should fix that 2nd paragraph of your The Stage review and then get it as the featured review?.
|
 | Jethro42 That's nice, you're the last contender and not the least. Welcome to the prog-wagon!
|
| Jethro42 Hi Koris...We're right into prog tourney preliminaries. Check out my last list
|
 | budgie https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MhPjU2KXZh0
|
| pizzamachine Nice soundoff. My wife and I laughed over lunch
|
 | Sowing Please shoutbox me with an email address to associate you with our new forum. I'll remove the shout from my profile once I've emailed you the link to access it. Thanks in advance!
|
 | xxm Nice Cure for Pain review.
|
 | Minortimbo12 "Why did the band feel the need to elaborate that their punch includes five fingers? I'm not sure what a knuckle sandwich with a pinkie out would look like, but it's probably pretty silly. Then again, Patrick Star once taught me that having your pinkie out is supposed to be a status symbol and a sign of being fancy, and I suppose he's got a point" That made my day
|
| Kusangii Hi! I made an atrocity if you dare to listen https://www.sputnikmusic.com/soundoff.php?albumid=437667
|
 | Dewinged That sucks brother, I'm gonna be off to a remote island with the family for a well deserved holiday on that weekend!
|
 | SlothcoreSam You might like the new Press Club album that just came out.
|
| evilford I can for sure. It's my bday month so that'd make sense :-) when do I put it up?
|
| SlothcoreSam I think Atari has a review in the works, but feel free to get another one out there. It's really good, vocals are excellent
|
| SlothcoreSam You need u check Sput user PitchForkArms new album. Somewhere South of Here- Leave me for the crows. Massive Menzingers vibes.
|
| Dewinged No worries dude. It was a fun night, the band's were bizarre as **** lol hope to see you another time!
|
| Dewinged Hey dude, dunno if maybe you wrote me on FB cause i can't check it on my phone. We are heading to Hiroshima now, and between sound check and hotel check ins i think I'll be around there around 17 or so. Let me know here if you coming!
|
 | KILL no wtf i thought they were brown bread
|
| Dewinged I am my dude, but holy **** worst timing ever, I have an impossible work shift for the next two weeks. ALTHOUGH, I am playing with o'summer vacation on the 10th in Fukuoka and the 11th in Hiroshima? How does it sound?
|
 | Demon of the Fall probably is for me as well (close enough anyway), I did reply to your review (thanks!)
|
| pizzamachine Fun stuff, I?m playing through KOTOR 2 and it?s surprising how well its held up
|
| pizzamachine One of my fav games, played it so many times lol
|
| DePlazz https://www.sputnikmusic.com/review/85308/Toxik-Dis-Morta/
|
 | Lucman She's a one of a kind :)
|
 | wutang4ever thank you for making me laugh for about 5 min straight youre a good person lol
|
 | YoYoMancuso I might eventually bump my rating but not just yet
|
| YoYoMancuso that would be cool! i'm always down to at least help with production
|
| evilford Nice, haven't heard of them will check m/
|
| pizzamachine I have not, but I?m always looking for solid music!!! Thanks.
|
 | MrSirLordGentleman They are great. Some are extremly well made and they have a lot of variety, unlike most music memes pages
|
| Kusangii Glad you digged it : ) I still don't understand how it's that overlooked tbh. They're on SoP level imo
|
 | Orb Our names grow with us don't they. Truth be told, this is my first name change in my 6 years here! Um wtf, its been 6 years. Wow feel weird saying it out loud. I see you joined roughly around the same time. Look at us now, contribs eh
|
| Orb Speaking of, when did you change yours?
|
| Kusangii Hey man, did you ever check out that The end of all Reason album?
|
 | someone removing the link so nobody can abuse it
|
| someone you have discord? i cannot find you
|
| dedex They've shown how consistent they are, big yay once again! ALSO, would you be lovely and rec another tune for the SOTD??? thxxxx
|
 | sevEn I just can't believe how you can write so many reviews you make it so hard for me to read them all!
|
| sevEn You have some very nice reviews
|
 | veninblazer ah yeah that was a good time, been meaning to drive out and hang out with him again someday
|
 | parksungjoon at least im not as bad as Converge create a masterpiece with their album Jane Doe, which is an album that people who embrace it, will not forget it.
|
| parksungjoon Yea i actually tried. For about half of them anyway
|
| wutang4ever like my fav metal album of all time is Individual Thought Patterns by Death, you think Chuck would have been pleased by The Black Dahlia Murder discog? I do. They killed it on every record. Just sayin...
|
| wutang4ever yessir one of the best metal bands ever, not because of Trevor passing, it's the truth
|
| wutang4ever hey you like good music, can you bump TBDM for me?
|
| Titan yeah but it doesn't even have one!
|
| Titan bro you need to review Marbles.....a real review once you fully absorbed the album
|
| Dedes Nice Hanje av Can't believe we're waiting like 6 more months for part 3 of the season RIP
|
 | Get Low Yeah DAMN actually grew on me quite a bit over time since then.
|
| Get Low Ah yes, I remember Soccer Riot. The reason I asked actually has nothing to do with that thread. I remembered an "argument" that you and I had on the soundoff page of the Black Panther soundtrack like the first week I started using Sput. (It was embarrassing; Id my soundoff). I saw that it was you, but I didn't remember what your name was at the time.
|
| Get Low What aliases have you gone by on here since 2018?
|
| Titan can you do me a favor Brendan?
|
 | arf If you need mass effect esque ambient music, go open up Exosphere Music's bandcamp channel, and start with Starterra's Celestial. You won't regret it.
|
 | DreamAgain Hey have you heard of the band Old Solar? They popped up on my Release Radar after re-releasing an old album, which was solid. But their last album 'SEE' is incredible. Some of the best post-rock I've heard of the last 5 or 10 years tbh.
|
| Orb Only if u ponder it with me
|
 | AnimalsAsSummit New music from me and Andrew Bittner (aka Count to Altek). Plenty of DnB influence in here, a different beast than Forcefied though for sure, might be worth your time! https://millicentwaffles.bandcamp.com/album/movements-in-synthetic-rhythm
|
| dedex heyo m'dear, just skimmed through the 2021 ballots and saw that you put Bruno Pernadas as Bruno Pernedas! that's a big no-no!!!!!!
|
| DePlazz No more divergent thinking?
|
 | SteakByrnes what is a koris bro why are you no longer thinking divergently
|
| AnimalsAsSummit Ever seen Ergo Proxy? I realize what your avatar is now but from the thumbnail thought it was from that show lol
|
 | Dreamflight Ahhh yeah I remember you man. Didn't associate you with the new nickname. Sup? Nice avatar btw. :D
|
 | mechamagica i stopped using sput for ratings but i figured i'd leave one of each for fun. lulu seemed like the most amusing 3.5 to keep. i do enjoy it
|
 | TheSonomaDude Damn dude I've actually listened to Owen Pallett without even realizing it was your stuff lmao. really cool music!
|
 | Colton is your Lana soundoff a pasta or did you write that
|
| AnimalsAsSummit Great work! I can definitely picture it all with a fuller sound, you seem pretty adept at MIDI!
|
 | CottonSalad Cool man! Send more whenever, happy to hear it
|
| CottonSalad Took a listen! Definitely understand the film/game vibes...Where are you thinking of studying? Or are you already?
|
| CottonSalad This is my only social media haha, thanks for the link! Will check soon.
|
| CottonSalad Nice! Congrats - not sure how getting outside the sputnik paradigm works, but I have a list on my page that links you to a soundcloud/website if you wanna email me some of your stuff. Would love to hear it. My exploration is a bit noisier and experimental than anything film/game related, but that doesn't mean it's the only thing I like haha
|
| CottonSalad Yo! Let's talk music comp - saw you're getting a degree?
|
 | el_newg oh Japan, that is so cool! my city has been in the world's longest lockdown so have been doing nothing for the last 2 years!
|
 | Parallels That's good advice, I'll do that. Japan sounds amazing, although I don't think I could navigate well there lol.
|
| parksungjoon honestly i prefer some of the more immediate cuts on that album but yea great comment
|
| Parallels How about you? What's new, what's old, what's tried and true?
|
| Parallels I want to get back into writing, but by actually writing reviews for new music as opposed to just stuff I already like. I can listen to music at work so this actually gives me time to spin several listens and form real opinions on them.
|
| Parallels its been pretty nice compared to my hiatus from 2016. going to be married in 2 months (!), working a rewarding job that pays quite decently, and have been looking for a house (although prices are making it insanely difficult). we may build our own since we have land already.
|
| Parallels i remember wanting to be a contributor way back in 2009-2011 so badly, but i was way too young, unreliable and couldnt write for crap. I was also very immature and self centered. pretty sure i scoured your reviews when you were a contrib then, thats what made your name familar
|
| Parallels It was for the best that you took some time to mature first, lol.
|
| Parallels i knew itttttt lol. and I can totally understand, I remember a funny but edgy punk that liked to push boundaries
|
| Parallels hmmm, no that doesnt ring a bell. im thinking way older... like pre-2012. did you used to use a handle called necrotica34 or something similar? maybe im confusing you and another brendan or brandon.
|
| Parallels your username is so familiar, did you have a different name back in the day?
|
| twlight love the steely reviews, thanks for the resurgenceinterested to see what you think of Gaucho, their last record of the 70's run
|
| Demon of the Fall Thanks once again for taking the time, really helpful! Yeah I replied via email before seeing this. I noticed it was mostly grammar/structural? Hardest part to get right!
|
| Demon of the Fall I do not have Google docs. That might be an issue. Can I just post it in the casual convo thread, then when you've copied it out, I'll just it?
|
 | aok duuude. tones and i's sooo good though =/ . do you at least like one direction yet? I'm sad for your lack of appreciation of quality pop music such as the jonas brothers ..
|
| ArsMoriendi I'm glad you loved the Robovine song from Song of the Day! Do yourself a favor and check their album GET DUSTED! This site could use another Robovine fan
|
 | Funeralopolis Yea I thought you were under a new account. I originally intended this as a meme alt that ended up becoming my main account. Electric Wizard is eh-okay I guess lol. Good on you for overcoming your alcoholism - that is no small feat, you should feel proud. That Mare Cognitum album is so good it might be the best album of the decade, it is so powerful, makes me feel badass almost like a Gojira album in a weird way. It and Ad Nauseum probably best of the decade so far.
