singedsunI started this on Friday, but while I'm feeling better, I'm still not a hundred percent. I'm still not getting all the things done I want to, or when I want to. Which is why this is late again and if it feels short or a little disjointed, that's just where my brain is at right now.
I also spent Friday night trying to record a tiny happy birthday video for my friend who's husband is compiling a bunch of video messages into a bigger birthday video for her actual birthday date in June. Took me an hour an half to be happy with about 20 seconds of content. Had to break for a small break down about how much I just miss my friend. We're both kind of solitary creatures and so we haven't talked much during this whole thing, and I know she's just trying to get through day to day but man I miss her. She's my concert buddy and we had tickets for like three shows that got cancelled over the last two months of shelter-in-place too. I did finally get that message recorded, edited and sent off to her husband.
I was happy to see new albums from both ...And Oceans and Paradise Lost. Whate I've listened to of both were good black metal, perfect for a rock laden Friday morning. And of course the new Haley Williams highly anticipated full album, Petals for Armor.
On ye olde YouTube this week, there's this cover of Fiona Apple's "Criminal" featuring Sarah Dugas.
This great version of "We Carry On" from Killswitch Engage that the guys recorded separately from their own places. The song and this video are great. Even if metal's not your thing, you might still like this song.
Last but not least Kawehi put out a new video this week with a cover of Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit", complete with a doggo looking on from beside her on the couch. And if you like this one, check out her cover of "Heart Shaped Box" too. It's from many years back, but still very good.
Anyway. realized that since I missed last week's post there are probably some things I missed there. So if you have new things you're listening to, please share them in the comments!
