Ulcerate's music is bleak and oppressive, dense and overwhelming, and repeat listens are required in order to get the full grasp of things, but in the end the effort is well worth it. Everything here is just executed to perfection.

Nonetheless, I wanna tell you about the most unique ones. First it would have the esoteric Seattle masters Bell Witch. I never thought I'd get to see this relatively obscure band live, but it happened and I was delighted (less than a month after I talked about them in one of my own blogs no less <span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":grinning_face:">😀</span>). The unique thing about them is that their last several album comprise of only a single song with a length of over 80 minutes! These records are truly something else and can really transport you to a distant fantastical place. I also find it very nice to see, in this day and age of shortening attention spans and quickfire content, that these compositions boldly require well over an hour of your undivided attention to be experienced. But give it the time and you won't be sorry. These two dudes also put on one of the most magical concert experiences I've ever had and I'll cherish that memory forever</EM></P> <P><A href="spotify:track:75dSM9nk2SF9ENfMfpuYez:small" target="_self">spotify:track:75dSM9nk2SF9ENfMfpuYez:small</A><BR /><A href="spotify:track:6pv29koVdrSsbD3FSjytRr:small" target="_self">spotify:track:6pv29koVdrSsbD3FSjytRr:small</A></P> <P> </P> <P><EM>Beyond that, another West Coast band that I never thought I'd see live also visited us - LA's industrial kings HEALTH. Genre-bending, enthralling and unique, these guys were my surprise discovery at the start of the year and I've been obsessed with them ever since. It's funny what a domino effect this has been - their music video for DEMIGODS got recommended to me because it features footage from my favorite game of all time, Command and Conquer Yuri's Revenge. That lead to me listening to most of their albums multiple times over and culminating in a bombastic live show like no other. I even got to talk to one of the dudes and he was so chill and friendly, was an absolute delight to hang with. Life can be quite strange sometimes, but it all leads to awesome memories and great stories.</EM></P> <P><A href="spotify:track:5F6nmQ0jJ18TKlipg2GehJ:small" target="_self">spotify:track:5F6nmQ0jJ18TKlipg2GehJ:small</A><BR /><A href="spotify:track:31JoCS9r2IzGp13ENm3Cvd:small" target="_self">spotify:track:31JoCS9r2IzGp13ENm3Cvd:small</A><BR /><A href="spotify:track:0V7joapUtnZmfLhLj1QVI4:small" target="_self">spotify:track:0V7joapUtnZmfLhLj1QVI4:small</A><BR /><A href="spotify:track:4RtL381bftPtvQhOpO5S3z:small" target="_self">spotify:track:4RtL381bftPtvQhOpO5S3z:small</A><BR /><A href="spotify:track:7Kx1m2vb4QPgHKVKvpvrFv:small" target="_self">spotify:track:7Kx1m2vb4QPgHKVKvpvrFv:small</A><BR /><A href="spotify:track:2uhMO2asSGhkTvOykBy7HB:small" target="_self">spotify:track:2uhMO2asSGhkTvOykBy7HB:small</A></P> <P> </P> <P><STRONG>Thank you, Joan </STRONG><span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":party_popper:">🎉</span><STRONG> As for me, I've been enjoying tunes that bring me good vibes and late summer nights:</STRONG></P> <P><BR /><A href="spotify:track:5Hk4Mpex0s2ndUpDQ5v2rU:small" target="_self">spotify:track:5Hk4Mpex0s2ndUpDQ5v2rU:small</A><BR /><A href="spotify:track:4ZnkygoWLzcGbQYCm3lkae:small" target="_self">spotify:track:4ZnkygoWLzcGbQYCm3lkae:small</A><BR /><BR /><STRONG>You can find the whole playlist here:</STRONG><BR /><A href="spotify:playlist:6lv6DjjryalvuDqg0oirRb" target="_self">spotify:playlist:6lv6DjjryalvuDqg0oirRb</A><BR /><BR /><STRONG>Thanks for listening & see you next month!</STRONG><BR /><BR />Happy summer <span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":sun:">☀️</span> <span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":beach_with_umbrella:">🏖</span></P> Mon, 01 Jul 2024 12:26:27 GMT Maria 2024-07-01T12:26:27Z In Our Headphones: June 2024 https://community.spotify.com/t5/Community-Blog/In-Our-Headphones-June-2024/ba-p/6167121 <P><span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="In Our Headphones.jpg" style="width: 400px;"><img src="https://community.spotify.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/174927i65F909F30AF2DA2F/image-size/medium?v=v2&px=400" role="button" title="In Our Headphones.jpg" alt="In Our Headphones.jpg" /></span></P> Mon, 01 Jul 2024 12:26:27 GMT https://community.spotify.com/t5/Community-Blog/In-Our-Headphones-June-2024/ba-p/6167121 Maria 2024-07-01T12:26:27Z Re: In Our Headphones: June 2024 https://community.spotify.com/t5/Community-Blog/In-Our-Headphones-June-2024/bc-p/6167127#M24295 <P>I think June's IOH is my favorite! <span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":fire:">🔥</span><span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":headphone:">🎧</span><span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":smiling_face_with_sunglasses:">😎</span></P> Mon, 01 Jul 2024 09:56:44 GMT https://community.spotify.com/t5/Community-Blog/In-Our-Headphones-June-2024/bc-p/6167127#M24295 Ivelina 2024-07-01T09:56:44Z Re: In Our Headphones: June 2024 https://community.spotify.com/t5/Community-Blog/In-Our-Headphones-June-2024/bc-p/6172020#M24298 <P>Many of my favorites are here, thank you</P> Wed, 03 Jul 2024 12:35:15 GMT https://community.spotify.com/t5/Community-Blog/In-Our-Headphones-June-2024/bc-p/6172020#M24298 verabetgiris 2024-07-03T12:35:15Z
