A classic to begin with - Orbulina universa as #MorbidAngel’s Altars of Darkness
@kau These are super cool. I wish I’d had these when I started grad school — they would have made the monotony of picking palatable with a respectable soundtrack.
@atthenius Thanks! What kind of metal are you into? I generally find drone (or audiobooks) to be most fitting for picking 😁
@kau It has been 20 years (!!!) since I have had to do picking. That is pre-iPhone time. iow: I listened to whatever my more senior lab mates wanted. Good folks though: Ule Ninneman, Tom Marchitto, Erica Hendy, Tom Koutavas. Really good folks. Otherwise, if I had to do it again today and had my own player, I’d probably do high fantasy audiobooks.
@atthenius Haha I guessed that - was curious about the metal though! Also legendary lab mates there; I know Tom M is a big metal fan! Trip out to Az in order to get you nostalgic about picking? 😅
@kau Jess and I do have a new project that’s just getting going. So… maybe. :)
