That ain't no trout, they say. It's a carp he got fast and bulbous on that one.
Well, that was a disappointment, as was learnin' how he made them noises with a group starved, ordered to make his noise, and waitin' on Zappa.
I'm still fishin' for such a beauty.

Review: Brighton Part Two – Emotional Highs, Historical Lows, and Character Depth in Regency Drama
After the release of part two for Brighton, I found myself in a strange limbo, waiting a few days before I could finally watch it since my mum was still away on holiday. That anticipation was a genuine test of patience and set the tone for my viewing experience. During this time, the ongoing high tea scenes became increasingly irritating—they felt like they dragged on forever, with little movement in the plot. For instance, the repetitive pouring of tea and polite small talk seemed to stall the storyline, making it hard to stay engaged. However, the cheese tastings among the gentlemen offered a refreshing contrast. Watching these moments unfold felt authentic; it was fascinating to see a tradition that was commonplace in the Regency era depicted faithfully on screen. This attention to period detail helped ground the show and made the setting feel more immersive, reminding me why I enjoy period dramas in the first place.

Harbinger of Despair
Who was he but just a man? To feel the weight of the world on his shoulders, he was no Atlas. Yet his bowed stance and tender neck suggested otherwise. It came to him in a dream: the absent stoking of an everlasting flame. A gnarled finger pointed towards an inevitable end, a sign that couldn't be ignorantly shaded; recurrence made sure of it. He didn't remember how long it had been going on; time didn't matter at this point. He just knew it was long enough to be petrified to fall asleep.

A critique as confusing as the album (I mean that as a compliment)! Though of fishy albums, with respect to Beefheart, I liked "Thing-Fish" bettah
