Able to share/point me in the right direction?

FUTO has ties to Curtis Yarvin just so y’all are aware.

I dig Transcribro from the Accrescent app storestore, personally.

My pleasure, friend. I’m a major guitar nerd and Tosin is one of the most skilled and creative modern guitarists I know of and I love to sing his and AaL’s praises.

The Brain Dance is another excellent, more recent and much softer song of theirs. I’d also recommend you check out Tosin’s live playthrough of Wave of Babies on the EMG YT channel.

Regardless, if you or another reader is interested in guitar-centric instrumental rock give these a listen. Unlike AaL, I wouldn’t call any of these bands heavy FWIW;

Covet

Chon

Scale the Summit (stick to old stuff)

Intervals (new stuff)

Polyphia

Just to follow-up on this in a bit more detail for you and other readers; Animals as Leaders is a three piece instrumental band with Toxin, another guitarist Javier Rayes* and a drummer, Matt Gartska. The band lacks a bassist for a nifty reason.

Whereas the typical guitar has 6 strings, Tosin and Javier both play 8-string guitars. Those two extra strings are tuned lower and allow a guitar to play the same low notes as a bass. These two dudes dont swap roles so much as accompany themselves, though. They’re both incredibly talented and create music with rhythmic complexity and depth.

Physical Education is catchy and bouncy and the music video is silly. They dont take themselves very seriously, but they do take their music and performance seriously. All three are extremely skilled musicians.

*: Javier’s solo project Mestís is also amazing. Softer than AaL and heavily inspired by Spanish rhythms and melodies.

Physical Education!

ESPECIALLY IF YOU HAVE ADHD LIKE ME

I was gonna be telling but I’m glad you beat me to it.

Instead, I will VERY LOUDLY EMPHASIZE THAT TOSIN ABASI IS ONE OF THE BEST MODERN GUITARISTS AND EVERYONE SHOULD LISTEN TO HIS BAND ANIMALS AS LEADERS

So we power the LLM data centers with techbros until we are out of techbros, after which we shut down the LLM data centers. Pretty sure we’d be able to take a half day, honestly.

Calling someone “subhuman” is the language of a supremacist. They are some of the absolute worst examples of humanity, yes, but they are still human. Referring to them as subhuman abdicates humanity’s responsibility to bring them to justice and to build systems that prevent a disproportionate concentration of power and influence.

The world is her barnacle

There’s shallow drama, there’s deep drama and there’s Yarvin drama.

This is starting to make me convulsive

The Southern Good Ole Boys heard about the Great War and thought to themselves “The only great war is the Race War!”

Was the prior lowest point Andrew Johnson’s ‘contributions’ to Reconstruction?

I’d say death is absolutely conclusive to safety and ammunition blanks were certainly conducive to death in this case.

Allegedly

And Futo’s ties to Curtis Yarvin, red flag or dealbreaker?

Frankly I think Oswald was framed. I’m of the opinion JFK’s head just…did that.

Thats fair! The instrumental portion is absolutely where my ear is tuned Into. The guitar solo on Misericorde pt 2 on Exul is one of my favorite solos of all time and I’ve heard a LOT of guitar solos.

Looks a little pricey, what features are locked behind the paywall?
