I was going to wait to put this out but our keyboard player pointed out it's Earth Day and the video I made to go along with this tune is thematically relevant, so it's out today! Enjoy.

On @nogodspod.bsky.social, I make the case that the distrust of government running through "Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem" is conveyed in a very particular, extremely 2007, voice.
Holy shit you guys really unlocked new ways for me to hate this movie with your analysis of how it’s about immigration. The xenomorphs literally replace human fetuses with their own babies. How did I not link that to great replacement nonsense?
darkest movie ever made

Episode 112: Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem (2007)
A requiem, a service for the dead. Two classic creatures, killed by one film. We look into the swirling mass of emptiness, at the center of this film, and see what shapes appear in its clouds.

Got home from a meeting on tuesday and, instead of posting an episode, quickly fell asleep. Uploading for the freeloaders, now.
Regular reminder that the literal 1st full conversation in ALIEN is a contract negotiation, & that everything that goes wrong throughout those movies happens because the Weyland-Yutani Corporation programmed all of its "AI" systems to put any possibility of profit over & above the lives of the crew.
what a terrible movie lol
Well it was badly constructed, and written, and shot, but have you considered what it's *saying?*
"this is a race of rich dentists" yikes

This is slander. The Shobijin are far more real than the White House's plans

Barto is just "other podcasters" now huh?
In the most off-brand bonus episode yet, we talk about at will employment, what "dialectics" means, the heist movie as a form, and the eroticism of tool use.

Shot from Michael Mann's "Thief" wherein James Caan is in a car lot with streamers of lights over head. One of the cars is in flames and he's holding a can of gasoline
Every time we open our inbox it's "Why does your monster movie podcast never discuss Michael Mann's 'Thief?'"
So we're putting this one to rest.
Up for the patrons tonight. Up for everyone else whenever you become patrons.
this is really neat
The reviews are in🙏
I'm really excited to share some music with everyone. I'm lucky enough to be working with some incredible musicians and I think what we're doing is really special.
It's free to download so I hope you'll check it out and keep following along as we put out more.

If you make heavy music at home and want to make it sound a little less "bedroom," I can take on one or two mix and/or master jobs. I love music production and am always interested in working with new folks. Don't hesitate to reach out.
