Trying to help a friend get from Madrid to Paris 8 June. And I want to 😭

€122 for the best timed TGV train to Paris €97 is the cheapest
Cheapest flights from €43
Other flights €54 - €74

@jon it's sooo hard to argue the case. You mean the flight takes a quarter of the time, and costs a quarter as much...

@jon true. And now the strikes in Germany seem to be over for a while you've got a better chance of making it to the destination.

@jon my friends who used to do UK to Portugal every year eventually gave up and bought a camper van.

For anyone who's heard any of these (my current top 5 metal albums of 2024), curious to know your favorite (and if you haven't heard one or more, I highly recommend them).

@jake4480 Paganizer (NWOSDM) and Eye of Purgatory (Edge of Sanity like) if memory serves, but it's a moving target! https://www.metal-archives.com/artists/Rogga_Johansson/664

@jake4480 just noticed Ribspreader is a Rogga Johansson project. I've listened and enjoyed some of his other stuff.

@jake4480 genres on those in order are Death, Thrash, Death, Awesome, and Black? The only one I know is Witch Vomit, and I had a great time at their gig on Monday.

@jake4480 ok, I'll investigate. Also worth checking out:

@jake4480 yeah, most of these aren't current, that's not really how I listen to music. Tho more so these days.

Strangely, I owned no death metal on vinyl until last night. I ordered the Degraved EP from last year, Whispered Morbidity. It's one of my favorite metal releases ever (and now there's only 1 left, you can grab the last one here - https://degraved.bandcamp.com/album/whispered-morbidity)

It should arrive by the end of the month. It's this beautiful blue/teal kind of vinyl. This is the stock photo from the site. 😍 Will get photos when it arrives of the whole deal, cover, etc.

@jake4480 dunno about the vinyl, but the album cover is delightful

I really really wanted to like European Sleeper, and even gave them some money. But having travelled with them 4 times now, and had major issues on 3 of them makes it really hard to like. And what's with stop announcements on a sleeper train anyway?

plaindocs,
@plaindocs@chaos.social avatar

@janl once the heating wasn't working, was given the option of not travelling or travelling without heating with only 2 hours notice (in November). Twice downgraded from private sleeper to 6 person couchette style (no other people though). Usually no working power socket.

I've told so many people that I'm going to see Witch Piss that I really hope they are good live.

When I say I love modern Katatonia, I'd like to be clear that I'm mostly talking about Tonight's Decision and Last Fair Deal Gone Down, released in 1999 and 2001 respectively. 😜

Neither of which come close to the place Brave Murder Day has in my heart, but you knew that already right?
