Was shuffling the full discog on my flight today. Rivertown Blues. What a fucking song. Double time, half time, pretty bridge, shredding solo. It has it all

I'm going to guess that "City of Angels" will get a prominent TV show or movie soundtrack feature.

Hey. Guys. Just want to say for everyone who loves City of Angels (I am so fucking pumped on the reception for this song) that something so so so so rad is going to happen with it. I don’t know when exactly, but holy shit. We are in an alternate timeline. It’s just the only explanation

Carlos Forbs played 17 times for Wolves last season with less than 700 minutes total. Got one assist and two yellow cards in that time. Between mid January and the end of the season he played exactly 1 minute of football. Tonight he is tearing Barcelona apart in the CL.

Anyone wealthy enough to own a major sports team is always a bad person. 100% of the time, unfortunately.

Something a bit more serious, but I saw a post on Reddit recently for a NYT article about Sheikh Mansour, who owns Man City. Essentially, he is funding and providing weapons for a paramilitary group that is committing a massacre in Sudan and has provoked a civil war. There were Sudanese people in the comments talking about what has happened. It has resulted in the estimated deaths of over 500,000 children, and the displacement of over 8.5 million people alongside 3.5m who have had to flee the country. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/06/29/world/middleeast/emirates-manchester-city-soccer-sudan.html Obviously it’s hard because we can’t control who owns our clubs, but it’s a reminder of how truly evil these people can be, and why they shouldn’t be defended.

I know it’s an over used word, especially when describing first albums of punk/emo/alt bands that went more pop-y later on, but the energy on TAYF is just so so good. Everyone is going all out on their instruments and vocals, all the emotion is there, the lyrics capture every possible feeling about young love and friendships and how someone feels when they go wrong, etc. So many of those lyrics would come of cheesy if not sung the way they’re sung (or screamed) and with the melodies they used. Okay sure fine the lyrics are still cheesy in a lot of ways but it’s hard to pull off cheesy lyrics in a way that everyone wants to sing along to. Like, the whole bridge/outro of Blue Channel, those lyrics are cheesy but captures the feelings they’re trying to capture so well. And then having Adam go into the drawn out “promise me” while John flips the line a bit in the background “they don’t line MY mirror” with the venom in his voice saying it…just perfect.

I was actually tempted to make a post last weekend but didn't want to double post. I decided to throw on TAYF during a jog and man, it's really just a damn good album, front to back. For me, it really has this first album try-whatever-nervous-energy that was lost as their career took off. I'm a huge fan of most of their albums, but it really is no wonder that so many people connected with TAYF and propelled them to scene royalty.

I first heard them bc they played Tom Delonge’s wedding, so I downloaded a couple songs from Clarity on Limewire. and then they achieved greater mainstream success with Bleed American. Their first album I actually -purchased- was Futures. Prior, I had only downloaded their music I eventually purchased all of their records tho!

Literally the only time I’ve ever discovered bands through a video game is when I started playing Tony Hawk 2 when it first came out.

I should bust that House of Blues DVD back out. That's a good set. I should bust out Thursday's Kill the House Lights DVD while I'm at it.

I'm just relieved those songs are part of a release. I hate orphaned / one-off singles in the age of streaming services.

Interesting. When I hear patio, I always think of a kind of inner yard / atrium.

orangehorizon replied to the thread Soccer Men's Soccer (Football) Thread.

Is patio used in the US as a synonym for balcony?

I would gladly start a fundraiser to get me one of those lofts they’re building behind first base you can see. Grilling on the patio watching games all the time would be awesome.

One Knox is playing their first home playoff game right now. Just went up 2-0. I skipped out on going because of weather/errands and chores I had to get done, but I’ve had it on tv while doing things. It’s awesome to see they sold 6,000 tickets in a week for the quarterfinals. Definitely won’t be missing the semifinals if this result holds. Our biggest rival, and #2 seed, got upset last night as well.

orangehorizon liked Craig Manning's post in the thread Band Jimmy Eat World.

I loved the Bleed American singles, jumped fully aboard with Futures, and loved that darker direction that they leaned into with Stay on My Side Tonight, but to me, Chase This Light was always the full realization of the "What if we really went for it as a pop band?" question that was implied by stuff like "The Middle" and "Sweetness." The polish, sheen, and sheer melodic punch of that record blew me away when I first heard it, and still really holds up. I go back and forth on whether I like it more than Bleed American. I definitely think "Dizzy" is their best song that's not on Futures. IMO, they were breaking new ground as a band for everything they released between 1999 and 2007, and I would really accept any order of those as their top four. I like all the albums that came after, but they're all chasing after that peak as opposed to really expanding the band's horizons, which is why I put all of them a cut lower.

orangehorizon liked KrisArronNev's post in the thread Band Jimmy Eat World.

Ever a thankless task ranking their records as the order routinely changes due to the quality of the material. I will say Futures and Clarity are top 5 MOST of the time.

orangehorizon liked Chase Tremaine's post in the thread Albums in Stores – Oct 31st, 2025.

I don't think I've brought up this project on Chorus before! It's a new duo with an Australian songwriter. He's been writing hooky pop gems for years, but he lacks the musical ability to fulfill his visions for the songs (and he also doesn't care for his own singing voice). So he brought the songs to me to record them; at first, the idea was that I'd arrange and record the music while he found different singers to sing them, but it evolved into a cool partnership where I'm singing all of them on top of helping rewrite them. So I'm inevitably putting a "Chase Tremaine" touch on the songs, but my main goal is to make the best possible versions of his songs, so that he can finally share them with the world!

orangehorizon liked SAB22's post in the thread Band Thursday.

I love all Thursday but ACBTLD is special to me probably because I turned 16 the week after it came out and I remember seeing them 2 times that week meeting them at both and just being blown the fuck away by those songs live. Core memories for sure. Next week I got my license and put ACBTLD on for my first solo drive (oh Calcutta was the other one I listened to on that first drive that had just come out.)

Absolutely love Slot spending almost half a billion pound then crying about not having a big enough squad. Hilarious. Maybe you should have planned your spending and squad building better then, buddy.

Maybe in the English speaking world, although I haven't seen it yet. I only saw Bundes, which sounds even worse. In Germany the common abbreviation is Buli.

I know their lineup last night was mainly children, but seeing Liverpool lose every week will never get boring. Hopefully Villa continue the streak at the weekend!

Glad Palace avoided that banana skin last night. When I saw that Liverpool team, I was convinced they were gonna embarrass us like the 5th best team in Cyprus did to us last week. Thankfully, Sarr continued his love affair with Liverpool, Pino found some form after a poor couple of games and Kamada bossed their (admittedly young/out of form) midfield and ran the game. Now to improve our league form
