Song of the Month: Metric, Stadium Love

I had a pretty memorable session of my Curse of Strahd D&D campaign over the weekend.

We were fighting a powerful boss (no spoilers), and my sorlock had run out of spell slots. So our Moon druid decided to come in and polymorph her into a giant ape. She was not thrilled.

Then it turns out that the boss also had shape-changing abilities, and it transformed into a T-rex, because of course it needs to be Godzilla versus Kong at that point. And then the aforementioned druid got in on the fun by becoming a giant elk.

After all that, I just had to listen to Stadium Love.

Song of the Month: Metric, London Halflife

Some people find winter depressing, but for me, spring is when my mood tends to really bottom out. The warmer weather makes my insomnia even worse, and the rain and the gloom wear me down.

This in turn makes me turn to gloomy music. Well, slightly more than usual, anyway. And few do that better than Metric.

London Halflife is one of my all-time favourites from them, or really any band. It’s one of only two songs I’ve ever listened to on repeat (the other being Live It Out, also by Metric).
