singedsun: the gravedigger from repo! the genetic opera holding up a blue vial (gravedigger)
It was our friend's last night with us tonight, so we all kind of hunkered down and watched stuff together. Gretal & Hansel was released on Hulu in the last few days so we put that on. I don't know if anyone else here has watched it but oh man I was not expecting that movie at all. It's some ephemeral time that's both very long ago and still a little bit modern. Sophia Lillis was a wonderful Gretal, but I couldn't help but feel like she seemed out of place the whole time. Also, surprise appearance by the every beautiful Jessica de Gouw, whom I LOVE. It was a small part, but she was there nonetheless and it made me happy.

So because of that and also because I tried to do a small end of the year wrap-up thing behind the cut here, this post got pushed into today.

I have one good video recommendation this week, because the week was a trash fire here and it was very surreal to try and just listen and enjoy music at all. Which means I didn't do much of it.

But, here we go:

Firstly it's First to Eleven's "Stairway to Heaven (Led Zepplin)" cover with Lauren Babic, Violet Orlandi & Halocene (I think just Addie from Halocene, but I wasn't paying close attention). If you like this one you can watch another they did a few months back for Queen's "Somebody to Love".


And now, let's talk a little bit about my 2020 in music )

A few bonus music mentions for this week:

Witch of the Vale - Hurt (Nine Inch Nails)
FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE - Blue (Turns to Red) an Eiffel 65 cover.
Sevdaliza - Tiny Desk (Home) Concert
Two Feet - Fire

And if you like hip-hop and good lesbian content, there's a new Jazmin Sullivan album out here [Spotify].

Also in music news, I saw that Kings of Leon has announced a new album and I'm so stoked for that. I really adore that band, it's gotten me through some weird times.

Anyway, that's music for this week. Tell me what you liked or listened to this week, I love to hear about it. If you have any other questions about music, throw them my way too!
