I had an interesting week. Not a lot of music going on.
I DID have one afternoon where I was feeling in the mood to just go nuts, so I blasted some Brand of Sacrifice, Humanity's Last Breath, and Disembodied Tyrant.
Really bombastic Deathcore has cemented itself as my "guilty pleasure" genre.

like this: https://disembodiedtyrant.bandcamp.com/track/i-the-devourer-2

I am going to be in Paris at the end of October and I have marked a couple of small music venues that allegedly have weekly punk or prog stuff... I would love to catch a weird or crazy show (every French musician I know is wonderfully weird and out there), if anyone has any firsthand recommendations that would be sick.

Been listening to a lot of DJ mixes from my absolute favorite DJ, Sarah Calsworth, and another DJ I liked from the early 2000's, DJ M.P. Great progressive trance DJ's from a while ago.

Tallah - Primeval Obsession // Detachment (Bandcamp, but you can find it on streaming)

“What we know” and “my primeval obsession” are my favorites so far but it’s been a fun album to listen to.

To me instrumentally it is reminiscent of early (self-titled Korn), especially the rhythm section. The vocalist is a bit like Chester Bennington with crazy vocal range.

I clicked play and the airy chanting and ambient whatever started playing, and I was scrolling around the page to try and find some kind of information or clue into what this was about, and I got to the bottom and it said "If you like Tallah you might also like: Bloodywood", and I was like Ah, ok, I just need to wait.

Yeah, that's fun. I didn't even read the second half of your comment and had the exact same Korn thought.
