Spring in Hieron 34
Jdq, you're perfect and I love you but your description of Lem King's alignment is evil. Lem is evil. That's okay! Good, even! But a man who has come to realize he will fight for his scraps is very much the same wavelength as destroy what you do not understand

Season Six, Episode Fourteen: Face-To-Faceless
The show has always been good at running two antagonists at the same time, even if it's just one in the background for a while. Alpha/Hunters in season 1, Gerard and the Kanima in season 2, the Darach and the Alpha Pack in 3A, etc.
Maybe don't all crowd the teenage girl, assholes?
People are dumb when they're scared.
Telling Liam to act like Clark Kent when Dylan played little Clark in Man Of Steel is a good meta joke.
Directed by Linden Ashby. That explains why he hasn't been in it for a while.
Honestly, I'm with Malia at this point, just kill the evil old man.
Welcome to the show, Gabe Of The No Last Name.
"Which one of you is Nolan?" - Coach is such a bastard, lmao.
"I don't condone bullying of any kind," says Monroe, who 100000% condones teenage murder though.
Parrish's turn for some hallucinations.
Oh, there's Linden, never mind.
The morgue drawer beng empty is terrifying in itself, actually.
None of these lacrosse players are teenagers.
"The mass murder of teenagers" should not be the hingepoint on which your negotiation lies, Monroe, let's be honest.
Oh, she was on the Beast bus! Continuity is fun.
This whole Liam scene hurts to watch. It does have one of Coach's best bits though.
It's a wonder no one got shot in that tunnel tbh.
God, that biology teacher's such a useless bitch, I swear.
Parrish needs another new uniform, poor sod.
And the hits just keep on comin'.

I’ve been trying to think of a witty quip to post alongside this Winter in Hieron 14 bit all morning, but ultimately, everything I’ve been trying to say boils down to:
ONE. Lem is absolutely out of his gourd (affectionate, but also dear God what is wrong with him)
TWO. Lem makes me feel absolutely out of my gourd (still affectionate, but also I want to put him in a glass jar and study him), and
THREE. I have to imagine how I’m feeling right now is probably how Emmanuel felt in this moment!

[TEXT ID]
AUSTIN (as Emmanuel): Lem. You came to a baker, to ask about a cursed sword hilt.
JACK (as Lem): Well, you’re a ghost. [Janine laughs in background] And I like you very much.
AUSTIN (as Emmanuel): You—[pause] If you wanna spend time with me, you just, come see me.
JACK (as Lem, softly): Yeah. C—can you also please check out this cursed sword?
[everyone laughs loudly]

i’ve been aching to commentate spirit phone’s commentary for ages. glad i finally got around to it, this was an ejoyable experience. liveblog below the cut
-i'm like half certain i've heard this commentary before. maybe not the whole way through & it was probably actual years ago
-nice hearing stuff like this. in-depth personal view of the album-making process. makes it seem like more of a real thing i could do myself someday
-neil cicierega real person momence
-i could probably go real in depth about neil cicierega/tally hall parallels specifically concerning like. the arc of their musical careers. but i won't, here
-wild how i legitimately don't care much about micheal jackson
-didnt we get a bunch of spirit phone stems from the needlejuice release/his patreon? we could probably hear the funny track he speaks of here in that
-i love hearing musical artists, especially neil cicierega, talking about the meanings of their songs. like, not only has this song been claimed to hell & back by the tumblr gays, but with later ones i just can't see where he gets these ideas from. also, claiming there's any one meaning or plot to a song just seems silly to me
-shoutout to neil reusing a midi from like, 1998, that he made at 12 years old, whose entire melody was reused for the main verses of everybody loves raymond. loved finding that out on my own 2 years ago. now it's common trivia in this fandom. not bad times
-it'd be neat if neil did individual trans tracks here like he did with view monstel, those things are half of why i consider it my favorite album
-it's a lot easier to ignore the creator's intended meaning behind a song when he can't even remember it. thanks neil
-seesaw effect
-and there's my joke all but 1 of my followers wont get. moving on
-what kinds of movie theater lobbies has neil been to where there are arcade machines. i mean im not one to talk but that does sound rather strange
-why do songs' titles even need to be taken from the lyrics. ive never seen that as any sort of requisite. it's like titling any form of prose you can just give it whatever name ya like
-"this part sounds pretty cool right"
-is neil's vocal range only mildly better than mine? with training i could change that
-oh i haven't processed any of the last 25 seconds hold on
-god. a shit ton of vocal modification in this song. it's like neil returned to his roots but with quality this time
-i, as an ace/aro, have never related more to an allohet guy in my life. what is the point of eyes!
-professional humming/whistling takes skill. it's different from the recreational or casual stuff. i'd know
-there's a name for the way sound (especially music) gets distorted when moving past you and i can't remember it but it's probably what neil's referring to here in the way he recorded the intro
(- update: it's the doppler effect no need to tell me cas already did)
-as someone who hasnt seen the rugrats or take me there by blackstreet i'll just say it sounded like a bouncy music box melody. nice to hear a song that messes with the typical scales though. lydian & diatonic.
-that's a rather specific thing to be glad about, but given what he talked about in his last full audio commentary about the jew harp i suppose i'm not surprised
-i know that tmbg song now. listened to it & saw the music video too. yep they're different alright
-where the hell does neil get all these instrumence from anyway
-huh. hadnt heard this part of the commentary before making my oc concerning this song but i like to hear neil's approval concerning part of my interpretation
-i love how ive heard a billion different tellings of this mellified man story from lem dem fans talking about this song and neil's is by far the wildest
-good god that does only make it worse neil
-i love making liveblogs of lemon demon albums. with the fullerenes or tally hall i cant name a specific dude to take out my woes on generally but with lemon demon i can just say neil all the time. i like being on a casual first name basis with this dude ive never interacted with once ever
-is sweet bod the one other than cabinet man with a demo in the bonus tracks? i forget
-holy shit the boston molasses disaster someone call up soapy if it doesnt already know, it'd love this
-two thousand nine. god i miss the fiddle solo. the ver with it is truly the best one
-he pronounces it jeff? i've always read it as gef with a hard g. that's what i get for knowing words that are never spoken aloud
-that's a fun meta interpretation of this ghost story that's over a century old. i like that
-i've noticed neil generally does the same synths across a whole album. it's especially more clear in the earlier ones, and does mean i occasionally mix up songs between clown circus & live from the haunted candle shop
-ah! ancient aliens! my least favorite track on this album. i cant even claim to have the least interest in a popular one i've just generally not liked this one much from the beginning. so im curious to see what neil's got to say, i think ive been in ~new commentary zone for a while now
-anyway. newest update on the loolin not realizing a song's funky time signature front: i think this one's in 6/4. or at least switches a lot between time signatures. granted i dont listen to it very often for the reasons stated above
-see the way neil describes it. eldritch horror upon being visited by the unknown at a time when humanity'd hadn't even yet had a chance to imagine such a thing occurring. should be right up my alley. but the sound itself & many of the lyrics simply turn me away.
-must i specify i don't dislike it? spirit phone is neil's best album it not being my favorite doesn't mean i think it's bad yadda yadda nobody should be surprised by this it's not like anyone in these fandoms reads my liveblogs <3
-granted i think this is. the first bit of spirit phone content i've made on my blog ever. so who knows things can change <3
-the transitions in spirit phone are much less view-monster transition tracks & more extended outros. view-monster's were a bit more intro than outro sure but they also seemed directed upon making a 2-way rather than 1-way bridge between tracks. or something like that
-.............soft fuzzy man is an incredible nickname for a cat. i'd steal that if i werent afraid of introducing my relatives to lemon demon
-jirls
-an underlying metaphor is good enough. the literal side of the lyrics are fun. nothing but agreement here neil my good man
-the transition into as your father i expressly forbid it from soft fuzzy man is the best one in this album
-buddy you ask if a musical idea has been used before odds are the answer is yes in this day & age the question is has it been used in the way you're using it. like sure this soul jazz record from the 60s that was sold out in kansas stores for a week used this bassline that youve found yourself copying. but seeing as youre using it in some angsty garage rock ballad type tune does anybody actually care
-doesn't everybody like to say things in an unhinged manner from time to time
-imagine having a guitar dad, i say, with my dad being a folk accordion/fiddle dad, which is infinitely worse in every way
-i think he was in an actual folk band at some point. idk the 90s were weird
-iron my life?
-m-more intimate? there are a lot of ways i'd describe this song but intimate isn't one of them. granted as your father is negatively intimate so from there i guess you've got nowhere to go but up
-...still glad to see his interpretation kinda supports my oc at least
-the way he says characters in songs shouldn't worry about death really strongly makes me think this is some sort of. thematic continuation of stuck from dinosaurchestra, even if there's no real death in there. interesting. would also mean that the dad from these past 2 songs is named carlos betty (no last name)
-i literally never assumed this was a flute solo. piccolo at best. it's pretty clearly a recorder
-my mom plays the recorder. i wonder if she can play recorder better than neil cicierega
-we can throw a party in honor of the crushing weight of responsibility! i simply won't be the one throwing it because i have enough on my plate already <3
-what the hell does "a sense of intent" mean
-i've never heard rush before however i disagree with neil's understanding of 6/4. 6/4 is meant to have emphasis (onbeat or another term i can't remember) on the 1st & 4th beat of every measure, which is greatly different from a measure of 4/4 then a measure of 2/4. it's why his 5/4 always sounds weird, because while it's recognizable in sequences of 10/4, it's more 2 measures of 4/4 with one of 2/4 tacked on the end. that's also how it's different from 3/4. i don't know much music theory but what i do understand i will fight to the death about
-"canonized" that's. a very interesting term to use when referring to a former president
-from now on i will interpret every love song directed at some unseen "you" to be inviting me to marry them for tax purposes. thanks neil for being an aromantic icon
-ah hell yes hell yes man-made object is my favorite goddam song on this album
-short & sweet & good damn vibes. neil's thoughts on it all are only making it better
-wild how he uses very few vocal effects for a song that he clearly is straining his vocal range for. go off neil
-the qualifier of man-made is a wonderful thing. oldest or biggest thing? oldest or biggest man-made thing? what a incredibly important specification. a world of possibilities lie between the two. oh i love it
-just gets me thinking yknow! what we consider weird/impressive in another species, in our own species- what kind of equivalent to that would there be from an outsider looking in? are there alien versions of the significances we place upon things, that we could never imagine? the limits of the human imagination mean we could never conceive of something else in the world that isn't, in some way great or small, just like us- and are we wrong for thinking that? such a juicy topic i wish there were a name for it because it's kinda hard to explain concisely
-spiral of ants. my second favorite song from this album, in fact. a good one to experience
-the vocals are just another instrument. they really truly are. i wasn't going into this commentary expecting to feel solidarity for neil cicierega in this chili's tonight on more than one occasion but here i am.
-like, his whole stance on interpreting songs is something i agree with almost entirely. you can take it at face value, you can dig to their very depths, you can listen to songs without caring what the lyrics mean whatsoever, and those are all fun. & yeah while any of these people can be annoying as one of the types who enjoys gliding on the surface more than anything i find those who dedicate themselves to figuring out the whole meaning of a song over anything else to be both slightly scary & slightly annoying <3 keep up the good work
-i want to make songs for my siblings the way neil makes songs for his sibling(s)
-spinch
-neil really shouldn't be allowed to be this funny like this whole album youre thinking golly! he's just a normal man this neil cicierega! and then he starts listing the cat hacks jokes & you remember he's had ridiculously consistent viral success with all his humorous endeavors and holy shit it's neil cicierega in action talking about his music. god bless you neil
-you're welcome, no problem, my pleasure. good eveternoon, radio audience!

I needed a break after listening to three episodes of Spring in Hieron so I’m relistening to the seafaring liveshow of the Adventure Zone, and it’s a delightful change of pace!
Also Year Five Lem is kind of a Mess, and a bit of a self centered jerk, but also highkey relatable, and it’s very sweet that Hella makes sure he’s eating. I just have very conflicted feelings on him in particular.

Season Four, Episode Ten: Monstrous
Ah, I thought Syndey was Brett's sister, never mind.
Not the last time Brett gets chased by hunters, unfortunately.
"How are you all still alive?" - Oh :(
Scott's wonderful reputation proceeds him.
Funky wolf's bane farm you've found there, Chris.
Nothing like similar traumatic experiences to bring a couple back together.
Some more A+ parenting from Melissa there.
I'm guessing Chris stole the wolf's bane to use on Kate, but that's going to backfire spectacularly.
This is all very Magnus Archives, isn't it? With the tapes and people being aware that they're being taped.
So Brunski did all the legwork, that makes sense at least.
Should they not arrest Peter the second he sets foot in that police station? He still killed a lot of people that he never paid for.
Everyone in this firefight has terrible aim.
This whole Peter/Meredith link thing is so clever and unexpected, it's a neat little twist.
It also means Peter effectively stole from himself to finance his own plan that he doesn't remember having lmao.
Lydia's mum is gunna flip when she sees the state of that wall.
"A former lunatic, I'm much better now." - Sure you are, Peter.
I mean as much as you want to blame Peter, it's really not his fault that this happened.
Meanwhile, Scott and friends aren't having much fun being shot at.
That wine thing is a big leap of logic but we'll chalk it up to banshee powers, shall we?
Uh oh, Demon Wolf power for Scott. Deucalion would be proud.
And thus ends the Dead Pool, in time for Kate and Peter to be the Big Bads for the final two episodes.
"Not all monsters do monstrous things." - <3
Peter and Kate working together after Peter killed Kate last time is such a whiplash twist tbh.
