        I mean, this is a quote from Conan the Barbarian, so it’s not an original thought for toast.

        I will admit I could be misunderstanding something though.

      Recommendation: Brownie Mountain from Tim & Eric Awesome Show Great Job. It’s a melancholy anthem that rewards - and, in fact, requires - fully-commited vocals, while at the same time also being a song about accidentally eating a literally mountain-sized pile of brownies.

      My father always said, the ocean washes away all your sins. He meant that it helps get rid of a hangover, but I find that it helps in a lot of other ways too.

    Listening to a really good album.

    There’s a good chance my wife will find me crying over Everything Goes Numb tonight.

    It’s been a fucking week.

      Oh man. Streetlight strikes some emotional chords that nobody else can reach for me. Somewhere in the Between is my personal favorite album, but Everything Goes Numb is also 100% amazing songs. Plus, I swear that every time I’ve seen them live I walk out thinking “that might have been the best fucking show I’ve ever been to.”

      Whatever you’re going through, I hope you wake up in a better place in a better time.

        Thanks sibling. It’s been a thousand tiny cuts this week but I’m holding on.

        Both of those albums hold a ton of significance for me. I actually sang the song “Somewhere in the Between” as a lulllaby to my kid, but ETGN helped me through my other kid’s suicide attempt.

        I’m glad to find someone who loves Streetlight like I do. If we haven’t met in the pit already, I hope we do soon.

        (Assuming Tomas ever finishes the next album)
