We are easing into the depths... a sort of black metal song is next, and then the tempo and vocals will open the gates of hell.

The next song is from a Dutch band, in case we have any visitors from the Netherlands.
Avatar 3:19am
MissEevie:

I was adopted by a dutch family.. so kinda? :)
Avatar 3:20am
Bill Zebub:

After that, the song will be dedicated to you, Miss Evie, and I would love hearing that you become a fan of the band.

When is Heavy Dreamer?

Bill Zebub:

The vocalist of Dodecahedron died last year, by the way. You are hearing a voice that never more shall be.
Avatar 3:22am
Bill Zebub:

JSA, so you have a CD player, or are you too modern for that?
Avatar 3:23am
MissEevie:

Oh how sad. :(
Avatar 3:24am
jsa:

I am not modern enough for that. I need it on phonograph.
Avatar 3:25am
Bill Zebub:

I should put you in contact with the band, JSA - there is probably a vinyl version.
Avatar 3:28am
Bill Zebub:

(I have just learned that JSA has purchased the Vanishing Kids album "Heavy Dreamer" - I can rest now).
Avatar 3:33am
MissEevie:

?? I have totally heard of them. Weirdo
But Yay! :D Thank you!

@jsa So you're the other person (aside from me) who listens to The Old Codger.

I will make a point to put them on more often :)

jsa:

@HyperDose Unless you mean, Bill, I am new to Vanishing Kids. His film Boogers of the Antichrist featured the song and turned me on to them.
Avatar 3:37am
Bill Zebub:

The song will darken even more, Miss Evie

When I make coffee, I sing "my heavy.... creamer."

Avatar 3:51am
HyperDose:

Not familiar jsa, but I am perusing. Is there a particular moving picture that's a good starting point for a new initiate? Is there any linearity between films, or is it a mixed bag? Any recs from the Bill himself are of course welcome too.

@HyperDose Puppet Masters on the Absurd Horror Double Feature.

I cannot comment, Hyperdose. It is a conflict of interest.

Are you still with us, Miss Eevie?
Avatar 3:55am

@Bill I understand
@jsa many thanks!

MissEevie:

Yup yup

I think Puppet Masters is on Vimeo too btw

I consider the violin in this song to be quite evil.

MissEevie:

Oh for sure.
Avatar 3:58am
jsa:

@Bill Zebub I expect a kick back. But you can keep it if you play Heavy Dreamer.
Avatar 3:59am
jsa:

Or make me a coffee... heavy creamer.
Avatar 4:02am
Bill Zebub:

Opinions must be freely givem, JSA. And your recommendation of PEET's coffee is appreciated. I have tried the myriad blends and now it is my favorite.
Avatar 4:09am
HyperDose:

PEET's is very good. My mother would get it mail ordered for years. I've heard they are who supplies Starbucks their beans (before they ruin them). Can't confirm if that's true though.
Avatar 4:10am
jsa:

Oh sweet. I like their bean better than a lot of "boutique" blends. Way better than ⛧$.
Avatar 4:12am
jsa:

Not true. But I can confirm ⛧$ ruins their beans. They shared a bean with a brand called Seattle's Best, but move to their own sources 10+ years ago.

I judge my coffee on the sludge factor. I enjoy PEET's for an afternoon dark roast, New England Coffee's french vanilla for a poundable breakfast beverage.

Check out Bones Coffee. They do a lot of neat flavored coffees. I get From Dusk Till Donuts, raspberry doughnut flavored. Since I can't actually have doughnuts...

Ah, thanks for the clarification jsa. Quickly muted the show to listen to WFMU royalty Dennis Diken accept his NJ HoF induction. My ears shall return shortly!

Welcome, Edwin. I was at that show, by the wAY.

Ha! No kidding? That was a fun one. But, yeah, not a fan of that band.

Perhaps you will find something new in this broadcast.
  4:54am
Listener Bop Monroe:

approve! approve!!
  4:54am
Edwin:

Yeah, it's mostly new to me. The only ones I'm familiar with are My Dying Bride and Paradise Lost. I don't know squat about most of the slow 'n' gloomy goth metal type stuff, but I'm diggin' what I'm hearing.

Wait, no, my bad. The original singer wasn't the fat guy. He came on the second album. The original singer is back, and he's not fat.
