    NO PRAYER FOR THE DYING - Your thoughts…

    Solid album, a big step down from SSOASS, but by far the best of the 90s Maiden albums. Lands around dead center in the Maiden catalog in terms of quality. Probably Janick’s best studio performance with Maiden. And I really enjoy “Fates Warning”, even though the chorus blatantly rips off “The...

    It will be interesting to see if Schaffer gets a pardon or a commutation. The Oath Keeper higher-ups that he turned on apparently got commutations, and they’ve got to be pretty pissed at Schaffer right now. You have to wonder if WitSec was ever part of the conversation for Schaffer’s probation...

    Shouldn’t it at least be a performance recorded and released in 2025, though, even if the piece itself is old…?

    25 for '25, or: The Best Metal Albums of the Century So Far

    Can you give a few edge case examples on this, like where the line between inadmissible rock and admissible metal falls, and where industrial and grunge would run up against the rails here?

    Finished my first successful run of Balatro today, and that really only scratches the surface of what’s possible. So many more jokers to unlock, so many more decks and blinds to win with. I’ll probably continue to fiddle with it, but my PS5 backlog beckons…

    Got to what appears to be the final level in Viewfinder, and it’s a significant change of pace from previous levels because . It’s an odd twist, and will probably take a while for me to tackle. The game itself is somewhat clever, though its picture mechanics feel limited compared to something...

    She is still reachable via the Strange Death forum. Beyond that it’s unclear what’s going on with her and MaidenFans at the moment.

    Nice cover. What album is this?

    Ha ha. Neither, but Kerry King is abysmal, so Janick would take it in that particular contest.

    I wasn’t saying that Trump necessarily would. I’m saying that Hunter got his due process, was convicted and sentenced, and Joe should have let the result stand because Hunter had a fair trial. Not doing that while expecting others to do so for other matters was extremely hypocritical.

    No, it just proves that Joe Biden is a hypocrite on this issue.

    Let me just say that independent of anything else, pardoning Hunter was a hypocritical load of shit and never should have happened.

    Finished up a first pass through Jusant, which is all my backlog is going to allow me to do. It was a relatively short game with only 6 chapters, but mechanics continued to be added throughout, and it was still a very good value at $15. I missed a bunch of collectible stuff my first time...

    It’d be nice to hear the “too metal” demo someday. Maybe on some yet-to-be-released deluxe edition of Thriller…
