What you have to realize is they are both unreliable narrators. Once you realize that the book becomes much more interesting as you try to figure out where the truth is.

A lot of authors are right here on Reddit. Brandon Sanderson, his reddit name is Mistborn, posts occasionally to give updates. CJ Phipps posts. Others I've seen as well.

I've got noise canceling ones but honestly my by far favorite headphones are Shokz Open Run headphones. They are "bone headphones" that sit outside your ear up against the ear channel and conduct the sound to your inner ear.

That song killed the band.

I listened to the first one and liked it well enough but not enough to go on to the others. The pre apocalypse concept made it interesting.

The second book is kind of disjointed in that it's largely a prequel and jumps around but it's where you get the history of the Silos, how and why they came to be, and sets up the 3rd book where it all comes together.

Very rarely. Now that I've gone ebook and audiobook only I don't have the slightest idea what most authors even look like let alone details about them. Their background is utterly irrelevant to me.

Sarcasm or just continuing the joke that GVF participates in by never mentioning the band they actually sound like? I actually like GVF so I'm not hating like many do but Pink Floyd is not a band I'd ever associate with them.

For the OP look up the video for the song Highway Tune and close your eyes for the first minute. Your ears will tell you its some unearthed Led Zeppelin song while your eyes will sew a bunch of teenagers sounding like they came from 50 years ago.

I thought it was the worst episode so far by a fair margin. I love the games and have played the DLC so I knew what was coming but this was so boring. Would have preferred they used half the episode to introduce David and his gang as I feel that storyline deserves more than one episode given how pivotal it is.

I loved Breaking Bad but for whatever reason never got around to BCS til recently. Almost done with S3 now and loving it.

Daredevil. It's absolutely everything I ever wanted in a superhero adaptation.

>The second singer Anette was radically different and while they had the most success with her (Imaginareum is my favorite album from them), she was also fired for what exactly I don't know why, but I do know she wasn't the best live singer. (She still sounds miles better than me on a good day). They hit gold with Floor though. If she ever left the band would probably be done.

Anette got pregnant in the early part of a world tour and was going to need to take time off. She and the band could not come to an agreement on what to do. The story the band gives and Anette gives is actually pretty similar. They discussed either canceling the world tour or getting a temporary replacement singer. Anette was okay with a replacement singer as long as it was not Floor Jansen but Floor was the bands top choice as she was available and they had a preexisting relationship with her as Floors prior band After Forever had opened for Nightwish. Floor was actually their top choice to replace Tarja in 2005 but After Forever was still going and Floor was unavailable. Anette in her own words didn't want Floor because she knew fans would love Floor and reject her.

So then one night in Denver about an hour before showtime and after the opening acts had played Anette is rushed to the hospital with stomach / pregnancy issues - I believe she was only about 4 months along at this point. Band is faced with choice of canceling or playing without Anette. Elize Ryd and Alissa White Gluz were both part of Kamelot at the time (they are now the lead singers of Amaranthe and Arch Enemy) who had opened. They agreed to try and sing for Nightwish that night. They didn't know the songs beyond having heard them but with printed out lyrics they then fronted Nightwish for the night. There is a documentary on YouTube called The Denver Debacle but I think it would be better called The Denver Miracle given how great the two sounded given they only had an hour to try and learn the songs. Here is a fan video of them doing Storytime while holding papers with the lyrics on them. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=OQsON8D6--U

Anette was furious though they replaced her like that and a huge argument erupted. She played one more show with Nightwish and was done. Whether fired or she quit is unclear. Then with just 48 hrs to go Floor Jansen flew from Europe and joined the band for their first show in Seattle.

Nightwish - their best lineup was 2012 to 2020 with their 3rd but best lead singer and 2nd bassist / Co lead singer. The latter has since retired from the band.

Journey - Steve Perry and Jonathon Cain didn't come in til several albums in.

Fleetwood Mac - Stevie Nicks and Lyndsey Buckingham came later.

Heart - Neither Ann nor Nancy Wilson were original members. Ann joined a year or two before Nancy did.

REO Speedwagon - Kevin Cronin was a replacement for the original lead singer.

It's very good. The last season gets a lot of flak but it's still a very good show overall.

Symphonic Metal: Imaginaerum by Nightwish

New Wave: Rio by Duran Duran

Shoegaze: Slowdive by Slowdive

Beast in Black. I've seen them described as Judas Priest and ABBA had a baby. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=f8qWbowzwZU

Lead singer Yannis Papdopolous has an incredible range and his natural tone sounds falsetto. He can actually sing in the male soprano range which is rare.

How does a solo project break up? The band has been Urie only for a while now and a revolving cast of touring musicians.

Closer - Nine Inch Nails

Iron Maiden. Had their posters as a teen but never listened to anything by them. Now I really like them.

Africa by Toto. The lyrics in the verses are nonsensical word salad but thr chorus redeems it making the song a complete earworm.

I'm not going to ruin IT for you but when people complain about its ending they are complaining about one particular scene near the end. The end minus that scene is great, it's that scene that ruins it. It's so infamous and hated that all you have to do is say that scene from a Stephen King and they know your talking about IT. If you don't know it already you will when you get there. There will be zero doubt in your mind that its the scene we all hate once you read it. Otherwise ITs ending is good. What King gets ragged on a lot is that his endings drag on way too long or his Dark Tower ending which I think is brilliant but many hate.

The Cure. I loathe Friday I'm in Love which seems to be the favorite Cure song of most non fans.

I could finish the book must faster by physically reading but I rarely have the time and patience anymore to read whereas I multitask at home and work with audiobooks. Thousands of audiobooks over the last 20 years.

Australia due to remoteness.

Alone by Heart. Original was by I-Ten in the early 80s. Very synthy with a male singer. Then actors John Stamos and Jami Gertz made it a duet for a TV show. A few years later Heart covered it and it blew up and is now the go to song for any aspiring female singer who wants to show she can belt. Neither of the first two versions had belting like Ann Wilson does in it.
