Miss Vickie's Signature "Limited Edition" kettle cooked chips you say. Hickory Smoked Salt flavour you say. They smell like 'bacon' flavoured chips you say. Wait, what's that? There's a bit of a hint citrus tang followed by faux bacon flavouring? Yea?? The chips are a mid-weight kettle cooked..maybe a little bit on the lighter side of mid-weight..like a 4 to 4.5/10, they're still quite crunchy but not all that aggressive? I thought I heard you say that. Are the actual potato chips fairly uniformly off-white with very few browns to be found if any? That sounds about right, it's good to hear the skins are still there though. Now for the question everyone wants to know, would you procure these again?
I don't know, probably not. They taste like faux bacon flavoured chips, not my favourite chip family in general. Nothing all that new, as the "Limited Edition" "Signature" bag would suggest.
I was looking back at a best of 90's metal list a few weeks ago and I stumbled across Marilyn Manson's Antichrist Superstar. I never got into Manson in the 90's because, I don't know, it was probably a mix of being slightly too young and he just came off as too much of a performer when I started getting into heavier music. So why not give Antichrist Superstar a listen 24 years later, right? The album starts off with 2 sonic bangers with Irresponsible Hate Anthem and Beautiful People. Lyrically IHA hits a sour note, I get it that he was trying to be shocking and all but there's some things you should know by the time you're 26ish, he could have made his point without using the n-word (shits lazy). After beautiful people the album carries on but doesn't really hit the sonic high points as the first 2 songs, it's decent industrial metal. There's a good amount of weirdo electronic elements to the songs. I think they could have cut the runtime by a third and made the album all around more entertaining, too much needless repetition and wankery, but maybe that's just me. Maybe with a few more listens, and the knowledge that the first 2 songs aren't necessarily indicative of the whole album, it'll grow on me. Or maybe I'm just not the demo anymore and it holds no nostalgia for me. Either way, I don't feel like sifting through the lyrics to try to find more depth to Antichrist Superstar. It's an okay album.
Stay hydrated,
