Listener comments!
	12:03pm Krys O.: Hi!
	👻 12:03pm Jacob666: I'm tuned in.
	12:03pm Bill Zebub: Greetings Krys and Jacob666
	12:04pm OSS: Hello everyone!
	12:05pm Bill Zebub: OSS,thou art early
	12:05pm Rich in Washington: Greetings!
	12:06pm Bill Zebub: Greetings, Rich.
	12:06pm OSS: I set my alarm clock to noon so I can be here early! haha
	12:06pm Bill Zebub: Ha ha, OSS.
	12:10pm Mr Fab: Hail, Bill Zebub!
	12:10pm Bill Zebub: Mr. Fab, thou art also early. Hast thou partnered with OSS?
	12:12pm Mr Fab: ↳ Bill Zebub @12:10 had to get up eeeearly today... Mornings are evil, and should be outlawed.
	12:14pm Bill Zebub: I hate mornings too, except during a small period of autumn, but only when I am among the orange leaves.
	12:14pm Krys O.: I get up at 4 am ET.
	12:15pm Bill Zebub: Krys, if you could live as you wish, would you be a night person?
	12:15pm OSS: I go to bed at 4am et Krys!
	12:18pm Krys O.: ↳ Bill Zebub @12:15 I have had this schedule for 25 years because of my job. If I had my druthers, I would get up at sunrise. I was a night person in my youth though. I like calm mornings now.
	12:22pm Mr Fab: Killer whales are attacking boats, and they’re playing metal to keep them away: www.nytimes.com... Here’s the Spotify playlist they’re using: open.spotify.com... But why would they think that orcas hate metal? I dunno, if you’re called a “killer whale,” that’s pretty damn metal.
	12:23pm Bill Zebub: I have objected to that nomenclature.
	12:25pm OSS: Maybe Orcas have been listening to Ahab! They have a concept album about a whale that attacked and destroyed a whaler ship and it's a true story.
	12:30pm Mr Fab: from the article: "to deter them, the crew also tried another idea that had been passed along: booming a curated playlist of heavy metal — titled “Metal for Orcas” — through an underwater speaker. But the animals had moved quickly, targeting the rudder and disabling the boat’s steering." See - I think they LIKED the music. It created an underwater mosh pit.
	12:31pm OSS: haha that's hilarious Mr Fab
	12:33pm Krys O.: They tried that on Manuel Noriega in Panama.
	12:35pm Mr Fab: ↳ OSS @12:25 reading about Ahab now. they sound really cool - apparently all their albums are about ocean adventures. Sea-shanty metal?
	12:37pm OSS: Nautical fuenral doom they call themselves!
	12:44pm Krys O.: Turns out the playlist that they blasted on Noriega was not exclusively metal. thisdayinmetal.com...
	12:47pm OSS: noriega fought the law and he lost! haha
	12:48pm OSS: if any of you guys were in a situation like that, what music would make you surrender?
	12:49pm Bill Zebub: I am weakened by rap or country.
	12:49pm MissEevie: Hello hello!
	12:50pm Bill Zebub: Greetings, MissEevie
	12:50pm Mr Fab: ↳ OSS @12:48 Taylor Swiftie-type top 40 pop would have me running out begging for mercy.
	12:51pm OSS: rap for me too!
	12:52pm OSS: ↳ Mr Fab @12:50 haha I understand your choice completely Mr Fab
	12:52pm Bill Zebub: There was a comedian who argued against pop and said "I don't listen to music that requires dancers for me to like it."
	12:53pm Mr Fab: ↳ Bill Zebub @12:52 Zing!
	12:54pm OSS: ↳ Bill Zebub @12:52 There's a lot of terrible pop music that needs enhancements to get people's attention, so I'd agree with what the comedian said.
	12:56pm Bill Zebub: Well, there are people who despise metal. Music is a personal thing.Also, some people only like it on a surface level.
	12:57pm Krys O.: I'm fairly inured to many different types of music, but certain vocal qualities like the interrogative cadence combined with vocal fry can send me running for the mute button. Or 'indie music phonetics'. www.acelinguist.com...
	12:59pm OSS: ↳ Bill Zebub @12:56 true, pop is meant to get the attention of a lot of people, so it need to be aimed at the casual listener.
	1:01pm Krys O.: Bryce's show on Friday afternoons has been described as 'marbles in a blender' at times. Of course he plays a very wide variety of music including Indian classical. I find drones and metal can be very soothing.
	1:03pm OSS: she does sound like 90's bjork!
	1:04pm worldsworstrecords: ↳ Song: "Ra" by "Goupa" Enjoying this
	1:05pm OSS: even the rythm of this song is a bit army of me like!
	1:05pm Bill Zebub: I remember when I was in my first band and sang like King Diamond. I was too stupid to know that it is silly to clone someone,although the band Attic sounded more like King Diamond that the man himself (I think he released some stinkers later in his history).
	1:06pm Bill Zebub: Anyway, I wonder if Goupa intentionally mimics Bjork.
	1:07pm OSS: It might be an influence on the vocalist so probably it is intentional.
	👻 1:08pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hello, Bill and whales of fortune!
	1:08pm OSS: Hi Ken!
	1:08pm Bill Zebub: Hello Ken and Worldsworstrecords
	1:15pm Mr Fab: ↳ Krys O. @12:57 Fascinating article. Gonna have to listen to those examples later.
	1:34pm Mr Fab: Ever played much Hawkwind, Bill?
	1:36pm Bill Zebub: Mr.Fab, I never cared for it, nor did I like the Elric Saga.
	1:48pm Bill Zebub: Have I played too many unfamiliar bands today?
	1:50pm Mr Fab: ↳ Bill Zebub @1:48 No, I appreciate voyages into uncharted realms.
	1:53pm Bill Zebub: There shall be a style change after this song.
	2:00pm Mr Fab: ↳ Bill Zebub @1:53 Nice and atmospheric, after all that headbanging.
	2:01pm Mr Fab: Whoah! And boom, we're back to metal.
	2:08pm OSS: Many are unfamiliar to me Bill, but I like that!
	2:18pm OSS: You've played Throat before! They give me a killing joke vibe!
	2:20pm Bill Zebub: I never heard Killing Joke
	2:22pm Mr Fab: ↳ Bill Zebub @2:20 They did some great stuff. Check out songs like "War Dance," or "Requiem."
	2:27pm Krys O.: ↳ Bill Zebub @2:20 Loved Killing Joke since I was a teenager. Only saw them live once around 2008 or 2009 at Irving Plaza. It was the loudest concert I'd ever been to.
	2:29pm OSS: great song though!
	👻 2:31pm Jacob666: I Agree with you sir.
	2:32pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "The Day Before you Came" by "Amberian Dawn" reminds me of gABBA, a Ramones/ABBA tribute band.
	2:35pm Mr Fab: ↳ Krys O. @2:27 I bet it was! Husker Du was probably my loudest, and when I mentioned that in a previous chat, several others chimed in with yep, Husker or Bob Mould were the ultimate tinnitus-inducing shows.
	2:35pm OSS: do you like ABBA Bill?
	2:36pm Bill Zebub: I love ABBA
	2:37pm OSS: Soulgrind, I love their first album, one of my favorite records ever!
	2:40pm OSS: I liked that cover Ghost made of I'm a Marionnete, I'm only familiar with their hits but that song, the original was really good!
	2:48pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "Rise of the Fallen" by "Velvet Viper" love her voice
	👻 2:48pm Jacob666: All the ladies on vocals you play are part of the reason I listen got the film thanks.
	2:49pm Bill Zebub: I should play more female vocals, aye?
	👻 2:52pm Jacob666: Your show is a good balance between the two.
	2:52pm OSS: Great show today!
	2:55pm Krys O.: Thanks, Bill!
	2:56pm OSS: Day of discovery, I didn't know of this Varathron!
	2:56pm Bill Zebub: Any suggestions for next week?
	2:57pm OSS: I like to be surprised!
	👻 2:57pm Jacob666: Rigor mortis.
	👻 2:59pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Bill. You'll be here next Thursday?
	3:00pm Mr Fab: many thankyous, Bill
	3:00pm OSS: He will Ken!
	👻 3:00pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @2:59 Probably, since you mentioned requests .. carry on!
	3:00pm Bill Zebub: Yes sir
	👻 3:01pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ OSS @3:00 Yes, not paying attention. Also: Hi from before.
