He left behind two kids, three dogs and a cat.
This is awful. So sorry to hear.He left behind two kids, three dogs and a cat.
It could have been a burglary gone wrong, but my mind drifts to two dark places:
He was gay -- this was a hate crime.
He was killed by his partner, who has barely been mentioned at all in the coverage vs. the kids, pets, neighbors and co-workers. (As we know, one of the first things done in a murder investigation is to look at the spouse/partner.)
Horrible story, sorry.He left behind two kids, three dogs and a cat.

Since he was killed at home and not at work, I would doubt it's someone who wanted controlled substances, unless they had some very misguided ideas on where to get them.Horrible story, sorry.He left behind two kids, three dogs and a cat.

My wife is a vet and she has mentioned a couple times about how common break-ins to vet clinics are b/c of the controlled substances and vet clinics being easier than human facilities on average to get intobu, so that is a likely reason. But, like you said - partner is also a common reason.
I am sorry, i totally misread that part. In my head it was by the clinic.Horrible story, sorry.He left behind two kids, three dogs and a cat.

Odd question that popped in my mind:

Another tune with a bit more of a bounce for the playlist. Vide Noir grew on me more during research as I hit tracks like this and the couple others yet to come. It's a nice change of pace for them in the series of albums, it just didn't reach the highs of the other one and I listen to that one when I am in the mood for Lord Huron.
Next: a stunning guest voice and some country twang
Major brain cramp. I realised at about eight AM that there might be a problem.
I figured that’s what you meant, so didn’t comment. And that you didn’t mean Refrigerator Perry.

time to get to Evolution and the 1st of 3 songs that truthfully are probably 1-3 now on my countdown.
My last out included the song, “Lamento.” (YouTube Spotify). I said there that I left it out for a reason that will indicate at the relevant spot in the countdown. This is the relevant spot.

One thing I've noticed both in putting the Clash list together as well as doing these write-ups, is how much I love how their songs kick off. With very few exceptions (e.g., Charlie Don't Surf), they come out of the gate hard and fast. Death or Glory is no exception. This song always makes me want to punch someone right in the face. In a good way. If that's possible.

"Faithfull" is the second track on Pearl Jam's fifth studio album, "Yield" (1998). Written by guitarist Stone Gossard, with lyrics by Eddie, the song combines a driving rhythm with introspective and thought-provoking lyrics. "Faithfull" exemplifies the band’s shift during this era towards collaboration and exploration, with themes that encourage questioning societal norms and personal beliefs.
The song deals with religion, what it's like being raised a Christian in modern day society, then losing your faith. Eddie shared his thoughts in a 1998 interview with NME to promote the Yield album:
The lyrics reflect Eddie's critique of blind faith and societal pressures, as well as a call for self-awareness and personal responsibility. The song questions the unquestioning adherence to authority or belief systems, encouraging listeners to think critically. It emphasizes staying true to oneself rather than succumbing to external expectations or manipulations.
"Faithfull" blends Pearl Jam’s signature rock sound with a more refined and layered arrangement. The song’s structure reflects the balance between its contemplative themes and energetic delivery. Stone Gossard’s riff drives the song with a steady, propulsive energy, while Mike McCready’s lead guitar adds texture and subtle flourishes. Jeff Ament’s bass and Jack Irons’ drums create a solid, rhythmic foundation that anchors the track and complements its dynamic shifts. Eddie’s vocals alternate between restrained and impassioned, mirroring the song’s introspective and anthemic qualities.
In summary, "Faithfull" is a powerful and reflective track that invites listeners to question societal norms and stay true to their values. Its blend of thought-provoking lyrics and dynamic instrumentation make it a standout on Yield and a testament
From the album Angels + Animals which showcases the best of Ryan Star’s signature style: honest, stream of consciousness matched with innovative production elements. Influenced by Frank Ocean, The National, James Blake and Bon Iver, the record is distinguished by its raw vocals and sophisticated, genre-blending production choices. Star’s goal was to make listening to Angels + Animals akin to meeting him for the very first time -- "It's very autobiographical," he says, "I gave only the most raw, most honest version of myself on this record. It's primal in that sense. It starts with an apology and takes us on a man's journey to become his best self for the woman he lives for. We are all a bit angel and a bit animal, we do the best we can."

From (once again) songfacts:
Note to self: add "cocking a snook" to the verbal arsenal.
And as far as unearthed facts go, here's a doozy (at least to me):
As usual, I love the lyrics. It was difficult for me to just pick out a snippet as I love basically the entire thing. But, alas...
Now every cheap hood strikes a bargain with the world
Ends up making payments on a sofa or a girl
Love and hate tattooed across the knuckles of his hands
Hands that slap his kids around 'cause they don't understand how
Death or glory becomes just another story
Death or glory becomes just another story
I really like the "love and hate tattooed across the knuckles of his hands", but it was hard passing on the "he who ****s nuns" verse.
