portishead's discography is so consistent, it's always so close in rankings. Glory box is damn good too.

aha black milk, the singer cocteau twins gave the vocals in it honestly it was the clearest I have ever understood her while singing.

I most certainly have forgot about my previous usernames but yeah I am easy to forget as I go away from the site for sometime regularly. Well it's a pleasure to meet you again!
I see piano teacher in your favorites. What are your thoughts on it?

godflesh just has a raw vibe which I desire in industrial rock.
Enjoy the chemlab listen man, they are a grower for sure. Those are definitely great big for your favs in portishead's discography. My favorite is 'Third' just for the sheer number of times I have listened to it and it always blows me away. Beth Gibbons melancholic yet angry voice paired with the gothic synths and drums are chefs kiss.
Mezzanine is great! My favorite song from it always has been inertia creeps just because it's so erotic, every song on the album deserves the praise tho.

I'll get to the Dorohedoro soundtrack soon, I should also watch the anime while I am at it.
I have watched queen of dammed movie, man it can certainly be called a movie hella unhinged and edgy but the soundtrack blew me away because I was happy with the amount of artists they used which are my favorites. Totally recommend the movie for a 2 a.m. drunk session.

lemme dap you up, we need to keep the discussion going.
For industrial rock I have some recommendations - godflesh (every album is good) and chemlab - East Side Militia.
What's your favorite portishead album?

Brief me about your music preferences.

I'll cut my disappearance short, just in order to wish you a happy birthday, late though I am already (I did remember it, but due to certain unexpected complications irl, I didn't even have the opportunity to turn on my PC the last few days). Warmest wishes from my end, I hope you enjoyed your day, and I wish the rest of the year is kind to you.

Expect a longer reply by the coming weekend. One last thing - it warms my heart to see your new pfp and layout. Talk to you soon!

oh, also: a day's late, but happy birthday!

A man of eclectic appetite, I see :p I wish I could say the same but, really, I think my zone of interest is pretty narrow as of now, save for the seldom times I try stuff outside of my comfort food. If you want to consider ACCA as such, then sure! As for DunMeshi: I'm more interested in reading the manga and have been planning to for some time.

Yo, it's been a minute! Happy birthday. man. Have a good one.

Happy Birthday!!!

Happy Birthday :)

i'm heavily interested in its historical affiliations for the most part... primarily the crusades, saxons' war and even the salem witch trials, if that counts.

i realize now that i've never addressed this reply of yours from months ago... might as well revive it as a point of discussion since I'm rereading Berserk. what are your thoughts about the conviction arc? last na 'to promise hahaha

about Emma, i'll begin with the anime adaptation first. i need to hear the accents, haha

wahaha nakita ko rin sa trailer 'to! I've only ever read the manga though; Mori is such a lovely artist. it's a quintessential romance with an obsessively accurate account of Victorian era society.

Land of the Lustrous is a conflicting case; i'm both interested and indifferent at the same time.

ah, that's fair. it becomes more of a psychological drama later on, which was enough for me to read through the whole thing; the main character becomes really unrecognizable by the end. for what it's worth, there's some interesting depictions of body horror littered throughout the manga, too.

happy birthday pala ulit, hahaha! painom ka naman dyan oh!

you're actually the third person to recommend that, next to elnino and mistahee, lol

more reason to check it out already, right? I feel more or less the same way about Matsumoto Taiyou. quite a shame that only two (?) of his works has been adapted. I'm not even that big on Japanese period pieces - with the exception of some titles - but Takemitsuzamurai might be my second favorite from him, behind only Ping Pong.

yo, i see the lists are public. what'd you think of Dolis?

I had set it to friends only! Dolis was riveting. I think I can fix Mitsu

it did remind me a lot of this film called Pale Flower; the noir aesthetic, the manic pixie dream girl-slash-femme fatale lead, even the abrupt conclusion felt all too familiar.

Mitsu's ex was correct, Kishi can't handle all that. Mitsu is his aesthetic ideal; he's crazy for her, but not unhinged enough to actually follow through her self-destructive ways. the scene where they had a bet to cut off the other's body part epitomizes that. he knows that he cannot provide her with what she was looking for, but really, I think both of them are just bored? she's bound to realize that sooner or later, and then latch herself onto the next guy who can fill her sense of emptiness and ennui - at least until that ending happened. but what better way than to end it on a tragic note, really? now he's gonna carry all that emotional baggage, ever longing for his ideal image of Mitsu, the titular Dolis, and the thrill of their short-lived romance.

the art was gorgeous. loved the unconventional paneling and outfits. Kishi and Mitsu looked oddly similar though - is this how she typically designs her characters? maybe there's some Jungian layer that I'm missing lol. I'm compelled to check out the rest of Kusumoto's work, but, as apparent from the time of this reply, I had quite the busy schedule these past two weeks. sorry if it took this long to dish out a response!

happy birthday
