I don't care if I sound like a broken record: I love all Opeth, and this is just a beautiful ending to their latest triumph:

@Tago-Mago a broken record is correct twice a day?

[goosehd]

@ARNC ...unless it skips a beat.

This is the Metallica that made me want to start a one man circle pit in my bedroom as a teenager. Nothing wrong with some good friendly violent fun. Still my favourite metal genre

[SKT]

Any Ratboys fans? Just getting into them

[Matt]

Great album.

[SKT]

I really like it. Taking me back in some ways to the early 90’s…like Juliana Hatfield Three.

[Matt]

Excellent reference. If you haven’t already check out Been Stellar. I’m going to see them on Friday. Their new record is awesome.

@Matt I’ll give it a listen, thanks

[Matt]

New Helado Negro is chill af. It pairs well with Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD and a bowl. Carry on…

Speaking of chill, I really dig Leon Bridge’s new one. Kind of a paean to his upbringing in Ft Worth. Incredibly relaxing and yes chill.

I was listening to Randy Newman’s “I Love LA” in mourning of the wildfires and was impressed by the guitar solo. Looked up the personnel and it was basically Toto and Fleetwood Mac. Which reminded me to encourage anyone with HBO to watch the Yacht Rock “dockumentary” which is all about the crew of session musicians in the 70s and 80s like those folks.

I wish Jeff Porcaro hadn’t died so young. King of the pocket and effortless, silky grooves. In tribute, a shuffle of shuffles

And of course my favorite:

And him teaching it with modesty and charisma:

@mclaincausey Thank you so much for posting the "Teaching" video. Hearing him break down the beat,say exactly what he was going to play and it looks really easy when he starts to play it. Combining elements from the other 2 versions of the shuffle,and in case that wasn't crazy enough,add in The iconic Bo Diddly beat on the kick drum.

@goosehd Hermanos are so tasty good---good choice man

[goosehd]

@dinobarnesberlin Thank you and was completely new to me. Was watching you tube and came across them after watching those videos, downloaded their albums, and have binge listened to for the past week.

@Jett129 I just love how he breaks down his thought process and really makes the beat intuitive.

[Graham]

Currently obsessed with the latest album from Schammasch.

Billed as black metal but it is so much more.

@Graham if Taylor Swift burned churches, she would be labelled black metal too. Music critics eh!

I agree with you 100%,with intuitive being the key word.
