The duality of blonde is so beautiful, from the line "in hell there's heaven" on solo, to the album title having blonde with an 'e' listed on streaming platforms while the album cover is blond with no 'e' at the end. Something that I don't think is intentional but contributed to the theme of duality for me was my inability to make out Frank's lyrics at times; which lead to me creating my own versions of these songs that clashed with the actual versions once I took the time to read the lyrics.

The game tetris effect has been on my speakers a lot recently https://open.spotify.com/track/781SaJ3m5CzRWtx7yycM0e?si=9PBOt4LeR9Om2XuQMkA_vA&utm_source=copy-link

Hello, CrossFaders! My question is as follows: If you had to recommend an artist to as many people as possible without any idea of their music tastes, what artist would you choose that you think would have the most widespread appeal? My answer is Sharks Keep Moving, as a very chill, non-obtrusive guitar based band, I haven't found anyone who just straight up does not like them. Would love to get y'all's answers!

oh wow you have Bela Fleck and the Flecktones on here... absolutely love them (Victor Wooten is such an amazing bassist). I think a fun groove I go back to with them is 'Let Me Be the One' (https://open.spotify.com/track/4sfBktVbT1qReSKwM7qTXd) but Left of Cool is a great album overall. Have seen them live, met them and it was everything. Of the music added most recently, absolutely love Coheed. The harmonies and musicality is so nice and dreamy. I love it when metal and punk bands pull together works like Key Entity to show off their talents and diversity (vs always playing the same few chords and screaming). That's what hooks me, seeing a band make it and then continue to test and tinker in order to make music they want to create vs staying in a specific lane. Any bands that ya'll love that you feel do this?

Gorillaz, Flaming Lips, QotSA. Flaming Lips newest record might be my favorite. I like older gorillaz and QotSA though

Where does three six Mafia fall in the Pantheon of rappers? Please remember that they are academy award winners. Similarly, I feel like I hear references to "slob on my knob" all over the place. Is this the most prolific verse in all of hip hop

What is the most magnificent musical moment in the past decade? And why is it the transition on Nights?

What’s your favorite experience with the history of music? Have you seen any old time acts or visited monuments of music’s past? Song: Sixty Minute Man by Rufus Thomas

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b2bGmOvSPk4 My recommendation for this week is Чёрная речка by Серебряная свадьба, or "Chornaya Rechka" by Serebryanaya Svadba, which translates to "Black River" by "Silver Wedding", an amazing cabaret-rock band from Belarus. I send this not only to give Jason something even more difficult to pronounce, but also because it is a beautifully tragic song sang from the perspective of Alexander Pushkin's wife as she begs him not to go to the duel near the Black River which ultimately resulted in his death. The lead singer, Svetlana Ben, is a theater director and actress, two things which shine prominently in both the band's records and live performances (which, when I saw them, was separated into two ninety-minute sets)
