    Alice in Chains (feat. Lachrymose Lamb)

    Got something to say to this podcast? Send a voicemail, and you might hear yourself on the next episode! For episode 4, we introduce Alex (she/they) AKA Lachrymose Lamb! Alex tells us about her grudge-inspired concept albums as Lachrymose Lamb, and how much narrative structure and pacing is important to her music. As she explains how much Alice in Chains is influential to her works, she goes into her pitch about the band and the works of Jerry Cantrell; and their depressive, drug-fueled world of heavy riffs and soaring vocals.

    Homestuck (feat. cookiefonster)

    Got something to say to this podcast? Send a voicemail, and you might hear yourself on the next episode! (SPOILER WARNING FOR ***ALL*** OF HOMESTUCK RIGHT IN THE BEGINNING) It's Episode 3, and you know what that means. We welcome Cedric (he/they) AKA cookiefonster into the show; chiptune music expert and hobbyist blogger. We asked him about his humble beginnings as a musician in the Homestuck fan music project collective cool and new music team, and that led into our long-winded, structureless discussion into Homestuck. We talk about its strong points, its flaws, and its chaotic development period. Finally, we talk about what we think Homestuck is about, thematically; what it says about storytelling, Objectivism and Great Man Theory, and what it says about fandom culture. Perhaps Homestuck Made This World after all! cookiefonster: https://cookiefonster.com Theme song: The Human Song (Inky's Ver) by InkyFirefly Ending song: I Don't Wanna Die (Ging Nang Boyz cover) by Cecily Renns 00:00 Introduction 01:48 Interview 39:30 PITCH THIS OR DIE: Homestuck 1:47:40 The Round-Up Notes: Homestuck: https://www.homestuck.com/ Of Troles and Chiptumes: https://coolandnewwebcomic.bandcamp.com/album/of-troles-and-chiptumes cool and new music team: https://coolandnewwebcomic.bandcamp.com/ Bowman's Credit Score: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2AzsqsLhCmE Homestuck Music Wiki: https://hsmusic.wiki/ Cake: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cake_(band) branflakes: https://www.youtube.com/@branflakes325 SiIvaGunner: https://www.youtube.com/@SiIvaGunner The Lordling: https://homestuck.bandcamp.com/track/the-lordling Gio (The Hiveswap Fiasco): https://blog.giovanh.com/blog/2020/10/03/the-hiveswap-fiasco/ Merton: https://merton.neocities.org/ Psycholonials: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1529810/Psycholonials/ Digger: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digger_(2026_film) Love Actually: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Love_Actually Lovage: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lovage_(band)

    Star Wars Prequel Trilogy (feat. Biddy Fox)

    Got something to say to this podcast? Send a voicemail, and you might hear yourself on the next episode! In the second episode of Love Art or Die, we introduce our co-host Biddy Fox (she/its) properly to the show. Bea talks to me about her immense body of work, and exploring non-humanness and furry symbolism in her music and art. Then, for her pitch, she brings me through the epic saga of the Star Wars Prequel Movies by Director George Lucas. She explains to me how, if the original trilogy (Episodes 4-6) were a response to the Vietnam War and presenting spirituality and revolution as the antidote to fascism, the prequel trilogy (Episodes 1-3) is a reaction to the Iraq War and the Bush administration; not modern nor postmodern, but a neoclassical work of art, a complete piece of "digital art." Also, Mace Windu is AWESOME and Palpatine did 9/11.
