I enjoy mentally inventing new species of animals and fleshing those out on paper, too.

I'm hoping this is a joke about "pain" being French for bread, and not some other obvious joke I'm missing. :laughing: Thank you for welcoming me!

To answer both you and MarieMarie: My music taste doesn't have very much consistency, if I'm being entirely honest. I have been a fan of Lana Del Rey (I know, she's sort of a laughing stock in the alternative music scene, but I feel attached to her work) for quite some time, and I'd say I own more content and merchandise of her than of any other artist. I've also really got into Grimes and CocoRosie, and a bit of Bjork's work (not just saying that for ~indie~ points, her and CocoRosie have worked with a lot of the same musicians) these past few years. I'm also really into the rap group Metro Zu lately, and the musicians within there (Ruben Slikk would be my favorite) although I wouldn't say I'm an expert on rap or anything.

Thank ya!

Oui.

I love Lana's newest album, haven't really heard the older ones.
And **** the "alternative music scene", they're the joke.

For real. You don’t abandon greatness when it’s recognized. You savor the moment.

Cool, we have an art thread for if you ever feel like sharing your drawings :)
And nothing wrong with liking Lana Del Rey, I don't know much of her music but love some of her new songs. And Björk is awesome :beer:

I've already found my people! :tramp: Mad respect to you all. All those "professional" (pretentious) music publications drug her through the mud, and then they suddenly love and worship her since her last album. Predictable.

Honestly, Honeymoon is the first of her records that I took notice of and really liked but NFR is the first to blow me totally away. I really need to go through her full discography. I think sometimes I try so hard not to miss anything I end up missing what’s right in front of me.

For real though, this forum is an incredible resource for discovering music. We waste a lot time bull****ting and trying to be funny but if you follow the music threads you’ll find there are some serious music fanatics who really know their **** around here.
