When people quit smoking, a good amount of the perceived anxiety and stress is from them basically overnight doubling the amount of caffeine they are drinking. Suddenly their previous caffeine consumption hits twice as hard.

First thing that comes to mind is Alexander. Not a terrible movie, just a big pile of shit. I walked out of it coz there was better things to do in town that night. Actually terrible movies I’ve seen in cinema … avengers, avengers II (let my friends convince me), rogue one.

I always thought this album sucked but I rediscovered it on streaming and it’s becoming one of my favourites! So I dug out my vinyl copy and put it on and … it’s Jaco’s debut album. It’s a weird object, a white dude playing good bass with African masks and Drum Suite printed on it.

Wrote a song with absolutely disgusting chords

Bullshit book. Denies the existence of Palestine in its first chapter, good indicator to put it down.

Listened to your album #Unome today. Thoroughly enjoyed its eclectic sounds. My favorites are: 1) Dolmen; 2) Regicide; 3) Centuries of Darkness, which reminded me of Lou Reed and the Velvet Underground; and a real departure, 4) Housky Blue, which gave me the urge to dance. Love it! 💚

i made music for an animated short and it will be screened at the Galway Film Fleadh on 12 July www.galwayfilmfleadh.com/project/iris...
