11/11/23.
Another day, another amazing release. Frog's S/T release must have escaped a lot of people, because there are still 5 CDs left from the original pressing. Frog are a New York, New York band and this CD was originally issued on Monkfish Records and now is being handled by Frog's new label, Audio Antihero.
Listening to "Jesus Song" and "Rubbernecking" made me think of what Pavement might have sounded like if they were weirder. I mean this is definitely indie rock, but sometimes this has a country feel, and at other times it rocks hard but without a typical song structure to keep you knowing what's coming next.
This also recalls Chronophage, Danielson, Pere Ubu and maybe Meat Puppets. One more...the vocals remind me of Jason Cassidy's work in The Party and Viking Skate Country. You can kind of tell I'm all over the place. Listen to this.

One of my favorite photos from the Frog concert this summer.
Immediately following the conclusion of their last performance (which happened to be "Wish Upon a Bar," a song I had specifically asked for), my partner guided me toward the exit, reminding me of our limited time before our train departure. As we head towards the stairs, I happened to glance upward and spotted Danny and Tom together. I came to a halt and captured this moment. It was the flawless conclusion to an unforgettable evening.

Against the World by Escaped Audios is so tonally batshit but I have literally NEVER seen a superhero series of any kind replicate the exact feeling of playing one of my favorite superhero themed tabletop roleplaying games so perfectly so for that (and many other reasons) I adore it.
Like… fr, barring the amount of the straight up murder… Against the World is basically just like listening to a game of Masks. (The only reason there ISN’T murder in Masks is because you’re playing teenage Heros/antiheroes). The tonal shifts make sense to me because every Masks game I have ever been in has been like this.
#legit last Masks session i had my 11 year old super was having a magic powers panic attack#and then the villian was revealed to have monkey powers#and a CHEMISTRY GUN#i was playing a character experiencing massive trauma#but also it was FUNNY#love Against the world for this#Against the World#Escaped Audios Against the World#escaped audios

Freaks portrait video glalery
Essay by film critic Farran Smith Nehme
The most transgressive film produced by a major American studio in the 1930s, Tod Browning’s crowning achievement has haunted the margins of cinema for nearly one hundred years. An unforgettable cast of real-life sideshow performers portray the entertainers in a traveling circus who, shunned by mainstream society, live according to their own code—one of radical acceptance for the fellow oppressed and, as the show’s beautiful but cruel trapeze artist learns, of terrifying retribution for those who cross them. Received with revulsion by viewers upon its initial release, Freaks effectively ended Browning’s career but can now be seen for what it is: an audacious cry for understanding and a singular experience of nightmarish, almost avant-garde power.
The most celebrated and exquisitely perverse of the many collaborations between Tod Browning and his legendary leading man Lon Chaney, The Unknown features a wrenchingly physical performance from “the Man of a Thousand Faces” as the armless Spanish knife thrower Alonzo (he flings daggers with his feet) whose dastardly infatuation with his beautiful assistant (Joan Crawford)—a woman, it just so happens, who cannot bear to be touched by the hands of any man—drives him to unspeakable extremes. Sadomasochistic obsession, deception, murder, disfigurement, and a spectacular Grand Guignol climax—Browning wrings every last frisson from the lurid premise.
A fantastically atmospheric but rarely seen missing link in the development of Tod Browning’s artistry, set amid his favored milieu of shadowy sideshows and clever criminals, The Mystic provides a striking showcase for silent-era diva Aileen Pringle, who sports a series of memorably outré looks (courtesy of art-deco designer Erté) as Zara, a phony psychic in a Hungarian carnival who, under the guidance of a Svengali-like con man (Conway Tearle), crashes—and proceeds to swindle—American high society. Browning’s fascination with the weird is on full display in the eerie séance sequences, while his subversive moral ambiguity extends surprising sympathy to even the most seemingly irredeemable of antiheroes.

Hello! Can I be so humble as to request 2k12 Donatello with a gn villain/antihero reader who is really good with tech. Sorta like Reagan Ridley from inside job, if you know what that is?
Thank you in advance and have a amazing day/night!
Cruisin on down Main Street, you’re rel— HMMM????
What’s this??
*snatches paper*
“Hello! Can I be so humble as to request 2k12 Donatello with a gn villain/antihero reader who is really good with tech. Sorta like Reagan Ridley from inside job, if you know what that is?
Thank you in advance and have a amazing day/night! “
A/N: Hello, humble anon! Why of course!! I love writing 2k12 ;) and might I add I hope you have an amazing day/night too!!
-
Donnie x Villian/Antihero!Reader Whos good with tech
Warnings(?): Donnie being the “wabadubadubaduba” audio, mention of the situation with Leo and Karai (no, I don’t ship it), and I have seen the character but not Inside Job, itself. So if you meant personality-wise I’m so sorry 😭😭 I did my best.
-
Donnie didn’t have many flaws, the thought.
One was hiding his feelings, and the other was handling stress.
You, my dear, just happen to push at every button he has.
With how tech-savvy you are, he didn’t even try not to nerd out over you.
That was until his brothers scolded asked him to stop
If you take an interest in him/target him with your tech, he starts freaking out, begging for backup from his brothers
He can’t stop overanalyzing the situation because of the stress
Blabbers about you nonstop once they defeat/escape you, talking about how he has to figure you out because you “won’t give up.”
Someone mentions him acting like how Leo acted with Karai.
BOY DID THAT GET HIM CRANKY
Hes yelling at them and won’t stop denying it until he’s like “here I’ll prove you wrong!” And he draws a ven diagram of the differences.
As he’s writing it out, he realizes—
There isn’t a lot of differences.
There are big ones, like Karai literally being their sister, but not a lot of them.
Leo suggests that since Karai realized her error, maybe Donnie should try to convince you!
Donnie mouths off to him about how the only reason Karai was good was because she was living a lie.
Don storms off and Leo just watches him leave like o_o ( he turns to Mikey like “what did I say?”
Donnie leaves the lair in a huff, and unfortunately for him, runs into you.
After a thrilling battle, (him evading your tech while trying not to freak out about it) he starts off some banter, indirectly getting to know you— the brain he so desperately wants to pick.
Without thinking, he slips in a comment asking about why you would want to be corrupt with a brain like yours.
His reaction is different based on what you say.
If you ignore him with a sort of falter and try to change the topic, his interest is immediately piqued, he’s full of curiosity, now. There’s nothing stopping him from evading attacks when he knows you have something he wants. He shoves away the idea of his brothers teasing him over doing what Leo did, and just focuses on getting you to talk.
If you give a chaotic neutral response, (“why not?” Etc.) He’s barely evading your attacks, trying to yell at you the millions of reasons he just came up with on the spot. Any way you evade his argument just makes him angrier, and eventually, he smoke bombs away, entering the lair even angrier than when he left it.
Later when they fight you, he’s just trying to get it over with. He will deny the fascination he has with you and your tech, but inside he knows he wants to know more. Your banter throws him off, making some attacks hit him a lot easier, and eventually, he starts feeling a little warm in the face when he hears you talk
“I’m telling you, sensei. Everytime I think the shock factor will wear off, It just keeps giving me more symptoms!” He rants to Splinter, who knew exactly what had happened. “It seems to me, Donatello,” he muses, a hand to his beard, “It is a fracture in your mind. You should meditate on it.”
Splinter knows damn well what is going on, but doesn’t want to encourage “fraternizing with the enemy,” espECIALLY if that enemy shows little to no remorse for what they do.
Donatello doesn’t know what else to do, so he listens.
He sits, and he takes deep breaths, and he thinks about you and can’t seem to calm that fluttering ‘anger’ in his chest.
You twisted him up inside, and it pissed. him. off.
“Focus.. I just gotta focus!”
—
A/N: HI! I hope this was something like what you wanted— I feel like its not as good as my other ones— but then again I don’t know 2012 as well as rise- not to mention i dont know Donnie that well either 😭 I did my best I hope it’s up to your expectations, you wonderful anon!!

You listen to full-cast audio originals, right? You like Downton Abbey, right? You like roguish low fantasy, right? You like antihero assassin heroines, right?

4/27/24.
On January 1st we posted about Audio Antihero's release from Nosferatu D2. While that band is no more, the Parker brothers are still making music as My Best Unbeaten Brother (Croydon, England).
At the time I mentioned how Nosferatu D2 reminded me of a cross between The Wedding Present and The Fall. My Best Unbeaten Brother immediately made me think of these comps, but this new band's music tends to be a bit more melodic.
"Slayer On a Sunny Day" is one of 15 tracks on the compilation "20 Years of Joy Vol. 2". This compilation celebrates the 20th anniversary of the blog/radio station Joyzine. While there isn't a traditional physical release, there is a card with a download card available. I've listened to this compilation and really enjoyed a lot - most notably My Best Unbeaten Brother and Sergeant Buzfuz.
Audio Antihero will be releasing "Pessimistic Pizza" in digital format at the end of June. Hopefully Jamie will find a way to make a physical release.

[Video description: A tiktok video by fredericktjoseph with the cover text “Twitter HQ tonight as hundreds of employees quit because of Elon”. Behind it in an office building in the dark with the twitter logo on a sign on the left. On the building itself is a projection with scrolling white letters that reads: "Elon Musk: supreme parasite, petulant pimple, petulant profiteer, dictators asskisser, lawless oligarch, insecure colonizer, cruel hoarder, space Karen, mediocre manchild, pressurized privilege, petty racist, megalomaniac”.
The audio plays Taylow Swift’s antihero, the lyrics features are “Did you hear my covert narcissism, I disguise as altruism, like some kind of congressman. Tale as old as time. I wake up screaming from dreaming , one day I’ll watch as you’re leaving and life will lose all its meaning, for the last time. It’s me, Hi, I’m the problem, it’s me.”]

Lupin III: Angels Tactics is coming to the United States on Blu-ray this June 27th! 👼💥
“From Heaven or Hell? These Angels Are After Lupin's Blood
Even with the help of his new partner Emily, Inspector Zenigata can’t stop his rival Lupin from swiping the Original Metal from Area 51. Our agile antihero plans to turn the Metal—an orb said to have come from outer space—into a ring. But when Goemon tries to slice it, he discovers that his almighty sword can’t make a dent. After Goemon leaves on a journey of training, the Lupin Gang boys each have an encounter with a mysterious woman. But these women reveal themselves… to be specialized assassins! The Bloody Angels are hell-bent on taking down the United States and would love to have the Original Metal to help them do it.”
The new Discotek Media release will feature TV commercials, and Japanese audio (but with all-new English language subtitles)!

back with more questions for the supervillain because god im hyperfixating on this au rn dhhdkjskh
You probably answered this one before but I forgot :,)) how does virgil figure it out? is it like over time or suddenly all the pieces snap together
Could you elaborate more on roman's nanobots?? the concept of it is so cool omg
If Logan was in this au (I know you and skye mentioned if he was he'd be like some sort of agent after Roman), how would he try and discover the Phantom? Like just any overall elaboration?
Does Roman have somewhere specific where he tortures and murders his victims? Is it in his lair?
Since Roman is powerless, does he use any weapons aside from his disguised gadgets/knives? Like guns or stuff like that?
Considering he goes for corrupt business owners and rich people etc, do many heroes still go after him regardless of that? Or is he more like an anti-hero rather than a supervillain?
If he does manage to take over the Cardenia (if that is one of his goals), what does/would he do?
again you dont have to answer all of them if its too many! im just really interested in it sm 😭😭
No problem 🫡
I will answer these to the best of my abilities <3.
1. Virgil figures it out and had been picking up on small little things but the main thing that makes things click is Roman's voice. You see When Roman's the phantom his voice is deeper, tougher, and incredibly filled to the brim with manic murder and bloodthirst. He talks like everything is a game. Roman as himself is soft and buttery smooth, Very proper and charming while retaining a calculative-ness to it. When Roman does his phantom voice once, everything immediately snaps into place.
2. Have I mentioned that Roman studied abroad for his college years? Well he did and he went to a prestigious tech college in Germany and he apprenticed under a prolific nanobot engineer. His nanobots are never larger than a fruit fly and are generally undetectable. Most of his nanobots are multi-use for hacking and messing up cameras but he has some specified for hacking, chipping, recording audio, and recording footage. He could probably make something like the MCU Spiderman suit if he pleases but he just prefers to be fashionable.
3. Logan would either be working in the government or under one of the hero agencies. Skye and I never really plan to make this a fully fledged thing so we never felt the need to flesh our his role or give him a presence at all.
4. He never brings them to his lair or have any hideouts. He kills them and tortures them right where they are <3. He ALWAYS makes sure they're secluded without any means of escape and in the dead hours of the night. He. Does. Not. Bring. Them. Back
Too much risk that way.
5. He is proficient in using knives; He has a whole collection of knives in his lair, all ornate and lethal. He also knows how to handle a gun but he prefers Knives because, like, majority of guns are clunky, obvious, and not as ornate as Knives. Knives win overall. However, He can improvise and use anything as a weapon if he so chooses. He also can just use good old fashioned hands, arms, feet and legs.
6. Yes because apparently killing corrupt people are still ✨Crimes✨. The people in heroes agencies have a black and white way or thinking which is what makes them SHIT at their jobs. They're like the police force but has powers and unnecessarily even shittier at getting the correct people.
In the people's eyes, He is an antihero but in the Government's and Authority's eyes, he is nothing but filth and a villain.
Roman prefers a Villain title, honestly. Even if he does good, It's for his own benefit and self-satisfaction. He is no hero and will kill an innocent regardless of they annoy him or if they bother Virgil.
7. He NEVER wants to take over cardenia. Period.
