Saw avett brothers with Mike Patton tonight. Didn’t know who either were. Loved Satan Pulls the Strings (Avett Brothers) and their cover of Retrovertigo (Mr. Bungle).

I love alt rock especially when it incorporates analog instruments and electronic instruments. For example Magdalena bay with analog drums and electronic drums in the same song. Same with synths and acoustic guitar. Love that shit.

That being said the folktronica recs I’m seeing in searching are not dance enough for me. Too ambient or lowkey. Any American folk electronic dance music you can recommend me?

I’m not a big folk fan but I love alternative rock. I loved the show for what everyone is hating on it for. I loved the metal/punk/hard rock influences. I loved the (too few) synths. Wish there were more dance/techno drums and synths. Would’ve been a top show of all time for me if they incorporated more electronic instruments. It’s still up there though. Was awesome.

Satan Pulls the String was one of my favorites. Haven’t found the name of my other favorite yet. They also played easy by the commodores which was great.

Edit: the other cover I liked that they did was Retrovetigo Mr. Bungle. Wayyyy better than the recorded version.

Edit: also liked the line about the diving bell and the butterfly in “It’s Natural”

23F. Looking for something nice quality (willing to pay for it too). Eileen fisher pants are too short for me (36” inseam) and the sleeves are often too short also. Looking for similar silhouettes of similar or better quality. I find brands like free people and Anthropologie to have some styles that I like but are typically poor quality. Any suggestions?

It’s old. Was a hand me down from my grandma. I don’t know about a warranty. I only ever used distilled water. My mistake may have been not emptying the reservoir after I was done. I’ve tried soaking with diluted vinegar to no avail.

Is it worth sending it in for service or should I buy a new one?

I’m new to this, but my favorites right now are Alberto Morillas and Delphine Jelk.

Who else should I be looking into or learning about? Thanks in advance.

I know what unisex smoky woody frags I want (Le Labo Tonka 25, the noir 29, and vetiver 46) but not freshies for day/summer. Where should I be looking?

Le Labo Jasmin 17 and Neroli 36 are nice but too floral/sweet for my liking. Bergamote 22 turns to bell pepper on my skin. I also feel like these don’t last very long.

I like woody, aromatic, citrus, and green scents. I like leafy scents like Aesop Virere. Is Guerlain vetiver EDT a good unisex summer freshie? I want something light and good for hot weather.

Nothing crazy or out of the box of course. Crowd pleasers. Nothing too feminine. I want to know what male fragrances are widely accepted as very nice and well suited for a young man. Thanks in advance.
