New music review, and we have an amouse bouche of a one-off. Scruffy guitars, bright keyboards and relentlessly sunny disposition power some mid-00s Finnish power pop, on Tigerbombs' Love You (2004). https://grumpfox.yorniq.xyz/artists/short/tigerbombs

Should get up to speed with some new reviews soon - I've been travelling the past few weeks and returning home today, and I've half-written the next review in my head so hopefully the site will spring back to life sooner than later. Itching to get back to rambling!

I know i really shouldnt use neocities feed as a social media replacement, but im currently too tired to update my blog and i need to get this out there: I am currently through my second Playthrough of Look Outside, and I am confident calling it my all time favorite game. I cannot believe how overlooked this game is, I think anyone with even a slight interest in horror / rpgs should play it.

I havent played it myself but from what i know of it and the gameplay ive seen, it is definitely a great game. Really gets the "incomprehensible" part of incomprehensible horror right

In *my opinion* i don't think there really isn't a fixated purpose for the Neocities feed :o, i've seen plenty of users use them each for a different things, some redact more deeply about the changes in their site, some ask for feedback or questions, and some other people just post off-topic stuff in the means of engaging with other users ^^ And btw i agree!! I likey a lot Look Outside and specially its OST.

Hey i totally missed this! Congrats on getting that set up iirc you were having trouble with it. I really do hope Linux phones, or just alternative OS's for phones is a tech trend that catches on

This might be an obvious or silly question, but once in awhile i'll see a site that has a thumbnail for their actual site, and not their landing page...Is there a setting im missing to do that? or are people doing some fuckery to trick it

Bunch of site update spam about to take place. tl;dr I'm restructuring the site slightly: now that the main review index is categorised by rough style, I'm moving the "one-offs" from the Misc page to under their respective categories. Makes for easier discovery + if they ever grow into proper pages, it's an easier update for me.

No problem. Your website is impressive! And the reviews are very thorough. I have trouble writing a paragraph about music that I like.

New review - the Sonic series gets mega bouncy, super bright and hyper cheery, and yet something in it just isn't clicking with me fully. 2010's Vivid Sound x Hybrid Colors: Sonic Colors Original Soundtrack (2010): https://grumpfox.yorniq.xyz/artists/sonicthehedgehog#sonic_sc

This is also likely going to be the last review for a couple of weeks as I'm off on holidays (to Anthrocon!) at the start of next week! Reviews will likely resume in mid-July with a random one-off off the shelf, and then it's back to the wider discography projects.

New review: Red Hot Chili Peppers' original line-up finally reunites on their third album, and they deliver an album that's both an enthusiastic party soundtrack as well as proof of their growth. 1987's The Uplift Mofo Party Plan - https://grumpfox.yorniq.xyz/artists/rhcp#rhcp_tumpp

What are The Social Medias people use these days besides Neocities? Is it still bluesky?

i use lemmy sometimes which is like a federated version of reddit, it feels like you get the same content served to you no matter what on most of these platforms so i only get on it like once a week to catch up on niche communities. Bluesky seems to be the big one right now though.

I like using Instagram to keep in touch with my irls and family but I rarely post. Apparently a lot of artists are using Twitter/Bluesky but that style of social media has always been really confusing to me. Twitter is especially confusing now because of all the AI shit/Grok/whatever it's not even really worth it to use social media in the big 26 imo

I only use Tumblr, Bluesky and Instagram but mostly to promote my shit and look at other artists while i'm there. I don't really use social media, as made evident by the fact i don't have any personal social media accounts.

i only really use insta/tumblr, twitter is nightmarish and bluesky never really appealed to me. insta is where i talk to my IRL friends and tumblr has a lot of great artists

I usually use Twitter, YouTube, Tumblr, Reddit, and Newgrounds but I'm mainly active on the former two.

New review: the Peppers get a second start under the tutelage of George Clinton as the funk gets funkier and the punk gets punkier, resulting in something as scattershot as it is entertaining. 1985's Freaky Styley. https://grumpfox.yorniq.xyz/artists/rhcp#rhcp_fs

Thank you for the welcome! I loved looking through your site when I came across it, can't wait to read through more of your reviews. We have very similar Death Cab opinions, so I'm excited to see your thoughts on the upcoming album if/when you get around to it. (:

I'll definitely get around to it but it'll take a while! Should be arriving through post for me today and I'm excited to give it a listen, but I set myself a boundary of not reviewing anything until I've owned it for a good while so will probably write my thoughts down about it sometime next year.

I actually love void, its probably my one of my favorite distros out of the ones i tried. I'm currently trying out Arch and NixOS because I want to give those more of a shot, but Void and Arch are my favorites. The only negative to void is that theres not as many packages and that a fair amount of packages require more setup because of relying on systemd, but if you don't want to use systemd then void's great.
