Currently listening to Thereafter, by Save us from the Archon. Only heard this band once before but this album is seriously killer. I’d describe it as technical metal, relatively upbeat, countered by beautiful ambient, almost jazzy interludes. And it’s not completely soulless like a lot of “technical metal” coming out these days. Someone said it sounds like “CHON on steroids”. Can’t disagree with that…

I’m so much worse than I was a couple of years ago, but at least it feels good to get back to this grind. Hopefully this period of frustration is short lived.

Welp my life is a fuckin’ mess, but at least I found my old glasses….

Feel good to almost be done with this behemoth. Solid teak outdoor table with lazy Susan, probably at least 500 pounds, and made with (supposedly) some of the last real teak to be exported from Burma. I wish I could take credit for all of this, but I’ve only helped with the glue ups and cleaning/sanding. #woodworking #furnituremaking #teak #furniture #finefurniture

This is way too good! #currentlylistening #sisterhelen #thejasmineep

Gotta get creative when all the clamps are in use. #woodworking #cabinetmaking #carpentry

Werk selfiez (at Descience Laboratories)

Wish my POS phone could get a photo that does this justice. I applied the first coat of oil to this teak countertop earlier today and that stuff looks gooooorgeous! #wooodworking #cabinetmaking #teak

Still one of my favorite shots. Midtown west/Hell’s Kitchen. Sometime in 2011-2012. #photography #hasselblad #velvia

Been in my top 5 since the day it came out. Jon Theodore’s playing on this and De-loused has shaped me as a drummer and musician more than anybody else, and Omar’s playing and songwriting have inspired me a great deal as a musician. I was particularly stricken by a part played by the late, great Ikey Owens on this album, which is why I decided to post this. Rest in peace and power, Ikey! #currentlylistening #themarsvolta #francesthemute

Tfw when you’ve been waiting 12 years to see At the Drive-in and they cancel their show…
