And awaaay we go

Hahaha I love the title image

The Riven thus spake Nevermore

Open throttle outboard! Cool!

Gettin 1983 Krokus vibes

hi ahab happy international women day :)

Oh great more devil music

Devil desert music

Your advisor has been alerted

Rosasolis Dream actually played an Anatolian song last night, it got me hyped for today's show!

Psychedelia = total satan

By the end of the show you'll be tripping balls in a cave in Capadoccia

Helllooooo friends

Sorry Tyler, it's devil music hour again

Oh I'll have to check out Rosasolis playlist! Thanks for the tip

This song is called DEVIL MAN

Thank you Mark <3

Ride that bell Dawnrider

I knew a girl named Dawn Rider once

lol Matthew not sure if innocent comment or innuendo

Innocent always

any women centric plays today ? genre representation not real high

You know Mark I should have done better, I'll be honest I did not know today was international women's day until this morning

Though we started off with The Riven who kicked butt

Lots of great Swedish women rockers

Ahab plays lotsa female desert bands, I'm always learnin new cool stuff

ha it’s stil women's month for rest of march & i did notice that in first song

Speaking of which, Mammoth Weed Wizard Bastard

love that name

Good sludgey band, female singer

It's like 9 band names in one 🤣

Portuguese psych rock! Wow, now there's a new rabbit hole to jump into.

Anyone happen to catch Flex's surprise show on Sunday?

All Iberian all the time [whispers: wprb]

The DJ schedule is more of a suggestion list sometimes Andy. lol

I did not Andy, however I will be seeing Flex IN THE FLESH

2 sock

Next week at Monolord

Hello

You guys are going to Monolord too??

I might bump into you guys!

Just sayin’

It's obligatory! oooooh look for the WPRB stash wearing crew

plus flex played dopesmoker in entirety!

Hi Carlos!

Haha I thought he might, I saw his FB post

I might wear my ourple drive shirt ;)

we'll have to snap a pic for the gram

>:)

Purple shirt today at work today…supporting international women’s day!!

Oh flexs sunday night show was an awesome surprise

Also I'd like to file a complaint

lol

I played last weeks show backwards and my credit score went down 30 pts

Play it normal direction twice!

+60

Dungeon Weed is some brown doom

problem solved

Thank you brb

Thank God it didn't include dopesmoker like flexs show Sunday did

This is tickling the edges of my 'too weird for DC?' sensors, but I love that weird female vocal interlude

Dungeon Weed, where D & D nerds & stoner doomers find camaraderie

Roll a 20 or higher to escape the Gelatinous Cube, dude

Hahahaha magic cards released a dnd set last summer and included a gelatinous cube

There's also a sly jab at dnd players in the form of a creature whose ability is "tragic backstory" featuring some hilarious art and flavor text

"NO IT'S NOT WEED YOU STONER POS" - Krimit The Frog

i remember a gelatinous cube from the OG d&d monsters set, my dad has a beat up copy of the set

great artwork

said gelatinous cube should have a flavor

Krimit !! 🐸

I thought I smelled Swedes

I like gelatinous cubes. good thickening agents

I can say that, I'm swedish

BAM !

BAM

🍳

Whipping up one of those 50s gelatin dinners tonight, Chef?

Yo tambien soy de Argentina

Hell yeah, eating my jello salad rn

Porkfat & Jell-O D-lite

we need more grad school stories ! :)

This song reminds me of bury a friend by billie eilish

Sick Homer bump

It's Emeril!

BAM

Carlos!! 🤘

Mr. Zog's Space Wax

Cosmic doom

Love this one 😍

the mighty Tuskar

This track is punching me in the face then throwing me into a wall

Yeeeeeeeoooooowwwwwrrrrllllllllllllllllllllll

Fuzz-tastic

Sometimes you're the face, sometimes you're the wall...

I'm just getting in the show, I thought I was listening to Philly's band Gristmill for a moment

Sometimes you're just another brick in the wall

the mighty Gristmill

I'll have to check them out after the show

Sometimes the head bangs only every 5 seconds or so

1-minute outro is short for doom

>:)

Postal code starts w MK

Britain produces insane doom, sludge, stoner

It's the same thing only different

Sub title of class...? "Things that make you go DOOM!"

Doom-ademia

Captain Ahab spoken Naut

haha thanks we get a kick out out of them !

that was specially for you Mark :)

i still chuckle over the coffee shop patron who gave you his 10 page “manifesto” :)

I know! That definitely ranks up there as one of the more unusual stories

Melville's Ahab would appreciate heavy metal especially when it comes to harpoons one would think..

When you hear the words "my manifesto" in person: (...back slowly away.. )

Herman Melville was metal. Bartleby is metal AF.

Mood: "I would prefer not to."

Moby was a .... .... .. . Large sea mammal

Lambda Lambda Lambda

UN Jefferson!

Evenin' Captain Ahab!

Hello Ambrose! How're you doin

Rollin' wi' the punches Captain!👊

Sweet popcorn snare

👽

This has been a certified Half Life moment

Submit to the Combine

Half Life 3 Confirmed

Don't play me like that 😭

Radon in my goddamn basement in its half life

I probably have radon in my lungs too mmmm

I heated up a small spoon or 2 of queso in micro and added a wee bit of habanero salsa verde.... thin corn chippees ... mmmm. Storebought stuff. After work snacks w a tall can. And some fine psych stoner metal too. Very fine Tues eve

Radon in the lungs, porkroll in the heart

NJ Motto

.. half life...full life.. .whatever it takes...

Quarter life: halfway to destruction

Tonight on the Half-Lifetime Channel, a very special deep voiced announcement....

As I just now check Facebook, I see a post from the "AV Rigging Disasters" group of the earliest photo of Chernobyl, the morning after the explosions.

Stop spying on me Zuckerberg!

Oi!

@ Captain Ahab (host) I hope you are aware that Milton Keynes, the British hometown of your fav nuclear sludge-rock duo Tuskar, was actually named after an early Christian-math rock duo, Milton & Keynes. They're best remembered today for their hours-long jam epic "The Economic Consequences of Lost Paradise" ...

Ah, Schubmodul, German 2-piece

@ Captain Ahab (host) ... or so I'm told.

@Richard :):):) it's now canon

I think Schubmodul stole a song from Stoned Jesus

@ Captain Ahab (host) Why, thank you! :-))

🇹🇷 in da house

Central Jersey is Real and dont forget it!

✊

I subscribe to that newsletter

Blue rondo.... lol

@Matthew which song was stolen from Stoned Jesus?

Mogollar!

there's that Rondo!

What's not to love about 9/8!

quite the education tonite!

Massive jazziness

I really hate to ruin the mood after that bit of education..... But here's something relevant to earlier tracks by Dungeon Weed and λ: https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/554894200378753046/950908568578719764/1646784656154.jpg

LOL

No it's good don't hold back

The french name was tripping me up trying to find that on streaming platforms lol

Ah sorry Ryan! The other name for the album is simply "Anadolu Pop"

Oh this is sick. It sounds like surfer rock!

The T.A. work you've been doing is really shining thru here Capt'n. :)

@Captain Ahab, this is fantastic, thank you!

Thanks guys :D

i just looked up who rosasolis played last nite: erkin koray have you introduced us to him yet ?

I've played a few tracks but no deep dive yet, next week ;)

he's my fave

Captain! I have to head out for now but thanks for the excellent show, and introducing us to the Anatolian sound

Thanks TAndy! See you at the show

👽

So glad you are doing this Ahab! G'night all!

Fascinating show. Thanks, Cap'n.

DTO have you played Anatolian on your show ?

Dave The Anatolian

Can't wait for the 24 hour Anatolian Extravaganza! (wish wish)

Mark, I have not. I am soaking it all in during Captain Ahab's shows.

the karaca story is fascinating, accused of fomenting revolution & treason, citizen stripped - gotta get web site for this up

I have Kudsi Erguner coming up Friday morning, but that's not rock.

DTO & Ahab might have to do a collaboration show !

hiiii I can breathe now

was talking so much

hi Dave!

Hey.

thanks for the fantastic curation this is just an amazing station

Love it when they use microtones.

Thank you Captain Ahab for the education!

Thanks team, glad you enjoyed it :)
