Musically, this is not their most cohesive album. Their top 5 on Spotify is a good introduction to the hits. It's not my speed, but Uriah Heep has been consistently in my Dad's top 3 since I was a kid. He does that High Fidelity John Cusack thing where he fills empty air with "alright, top 5 70s artists in order of discovery" or something similar.

1/5, but I mistook "1st mate" for "1st officer." Still worked, but I think I watch too much Trek.

 

Most of my Dad's Uriah Heep record covers used to freak me out as a kid. They're pretty awesome, though.

I'm proud of you! I'm proud of you for creating a space to heal yourself and others. I'm proud of you for reaching out within that space to connect with other people that need the support of a father AND the fathers that want to help (me).

Your emotional vulnerability in this space shows a maturity of character that will be necessary to confront the absence you've felt from your parents. Whether you know it or not, you are doing the work! You've already taken a stand against letting your abuse ripple throughout your life and the lives of those around you. Keep it up, kid!

Shit rolls down hill? Not in your watch!

I'm boldly going to drink an ale and hope for what's to come.

There are a bajillion, but maybe you are looking for a specific genre that nails it on the head.

As someone mentioned, there are thousands of social drama films that could've easily happened. The success of that type of film is selling a "day in the life" plot.

Someone else mentioned Office Space. That film is a satire, but it condenses and delivers refined representations of the banality of cubicle life that we all can easily relate to. The characters truly seem to be facsimiles of people we've known in our working lives.

Someone else mentioned Michael Clayton. It's an excellent thriller with flawed characters with believable motives that yes, it could be real. And maybe something like that has happened?

What genre will help us answer your question?
