I had the great pleasure of watching the "Festival Of Love" unplugged show by Lord Of The Lost. I found this band earlier this year when they dropped the single "Priest", and I instantly fell in love with them. They're everything I could want in a badass industrial band. So when I heard that they were doing an unplugged stream, I definitely couldn't miss it!
They started off with "Priest", which translated into acoustic beautifully with just vocals and an acoustic guitar. It sounds so different without that heavy beat, but it's just so wonderful. It's almost delicate sounding, but it's still so powerful with Harms' voice. It damn near brought a tear to my eye.
They then did a few covers, the most notable of which was of Combichrist, Hell Boulevard, Deathstars, and Scarlet Dorn, but all of them were fantastic. After getting this far into it, I started to see why they called this show the festival of love. All of the songs they played are centered around matters of the heart. I think this is absolutely wonderful. In a time where so many people are struggling with mental health, we all need a little extra love in our lives.
After a few other covers, they did "Loreley", which I was super happy about, as that is one of my personal favorites. I absolutely love how it sounds acoustically! It's so beautiful! I'm amazed how the band is able to capture the essence of all these songs, and retain all the emotion, while doing them so differently than they usually do.
I was a little disappointed that after this we only got a couple more of their songs, and more covers. I mean I loved the covers, they were fantastic. But I was hoping to hear more of their own music. But I'm just a sucker for that shit, I love when bands do acoustic versions of their songs. I'm not knocking them at all. But I hope we get to hear more acoustic in the future. It just bring in another level of rawness to the feelings and I'm all about it. Not only does it show the versatility and skill of the band, but they also fucking nailed it! What else can I say? I loved this festival of love. I enjoyed this a lot and I highly recommend giving it a watch. ~Gangis

Episode 4 of the 24th season of Antiques Roadshow officially link airs on January 27 at 8/7C PM on PBS and is not currently available to view link online. I learned the information in this post from viewing the episode when it link was temporarily available online until early this morning.
“I link had to wear a watch every day because it felt very comforting,” she recalls. But in turn, that meant assessing whether each watch was earning its keep. “I had too much time to think about each watch and began asking: ‘Why do I have this? Why link do I have money sunk link in this, paying insurance on it?’ I work for a living and I suddenly thought, ‘No more safe queens.’”
According to the latest link Morgan Stanley report on the watch market that it every month in link collaboration with WatchCharts, prices on the secondary market decreased in Q4 2024 for the seventh quarter in a link row.
Lyle and The Midnight emerged from the COVID-19 pandemic in better link shape than ever."We'd just come out of a link year of being very afraid that our business was going to go under," Lyle says. "We didn't know if touring would come back." Thankfully, it did. Lyle and The Midnight link returned to touring in the spring of 2021. That same year, he acquired his studio in Atlanta, and eventually, this early 1980s Rolex Submariner.
