Wendigoon said this in the last episode and I couldn't agree more. That's it.
Hanging out with him must take a toll on Wendi, with all the crazy shit he says. Hunter is a almost a saint by comparison.
Doing the mission where I have to go to Aramis Stilton mansion, I had a fight with the howlers at the Crone´s saloon and one of them turned out to be Mindy. I only found out because after knocking her out (I´m trying a low chaos playthrough, so I´m trying to avoid killing), she was killed by a swarm of bloodflies (along with another howler).
How will that impact the story going forward and will that count as a kill for me?
I made this post a while ago (https://www.reddit.com/r/Karnivool/comments/1s4f6rt/my\_opinion\_on\_the\_themata\_album/?utm\_source=share&utm\_medium=web3x&utm\_name=web3xcss&utm\_term=1&utm\_content=share\_button), so now it´s time for Sound Awake.
I won´t take long on this; the first songs I ever heard from Karnivool were from this album and this seems like the album where they started to lean more definitely into the sound they are most known for. And Sound Awake is a fitting name for it, because the sound mixing/engineering/whatever is incredible. When that bass starts in Simple Boy, it sounds so "fat" and it keeps being like that for the whole album.
Favorite song: New Day - I think this is the first song I heard from them and only now, 15 years later, did I notice it´s over 8 minutes long!!! It always felt short. Honorable mentions to Simple Boy, Goliath, Umbra and All I Know.
Underrated: Caudal Laure - I don´t know where this song ranks among the fandom, but I rarely see it mentioned, so here it is. That ending is heaven.
Overrated: Set Fire to the Hive - I don´t actually think there´s an underrated song on the album, but following my rule of always having to pick one no matter how hard it is, I´m going with this one. I think it would fit better on Themata than this album.
PS: Roquefort (with Horns): was this song really necessary?
