Tomora – Come Closer

Tomora – Come Closer

Welcome to my reviewish write up on the debute album Come Closer from Tomora. Tomora is a joint side project from Tom Rowlands of the Chemical Brothers and Aurora. The name is a portmanteau of their names, Tom-(Aur)ora, Tomora. It features a lot of vocals from Aurora, but its much much more heavy electronic music like you would hear from The Chemical Brothers. Come Closer feels like a random project that came out of nowhere, but I have some pet theories that its sort of been a thing for a while, or at least the concept of a thing. A…
Star Trek Prodigy Supernova

Star Trek Prodigy Supernova

I want to just preface this review/commentary, right up front, that this game is no longer available on Steam. I have no idea about any other platforms or physical releases. Also probably notable, I have only watched maybe 2 episodes of Star Trek Prodigy, and I don't remeber them. That didn't stop me from enjoying the Transformers Earthspark game though, and it hasn't stopped me.from enjoying this game either. Its worth mentioning Earthspark a bit here. Star Trek Prodigy: Supernova, which is a dumb mouthful of a name, felt a lot like Transformers Earthspark. And so I checked and, its…

Weekly Wrap Up (2026.03.28)

I had an amusing moment with Amazon. And it happened again earlier today. I was ordering my Omeprazole, and it says it will come tomorrow. OR, for $3 more, it will come tomorrow. I had a previous order already coming, but it seems the shipping times were not related because I made another order today and it presented the same options. As for the other orders. The dryer randomly stopped working. Its been making a funny clicking noise for a while on the selector dial, and I have replaced it previously, so I ordered a new dial, its a cheap…

Star Trek Strange New Worlds – Season 3

As I post this Season 3 follow up to my Season 1 and 2 Stranger New Worlds post, I want to take a moment to make no one noticed I forgot to do the same for Season 5 of Lower Decks. No one noticed right, thought so. Anyway, this one has been out for a bit and I only just got around to catching up. FWIW, I am actually, very slowly also working on finishing TOS. One day, maybe, I will have covered all of Star Trek. I had heard a lot of negative press about how Season 3 was…

Weekly Wrap Up (2026.03.21)

I didn't feel like I had anything to write about this week, but I kind of do, not that anyone really cares either way. Music I was killing time the other day while my daughter was at an appointment and went in the Salvation Army store nearby. I got a bit lucky I think because there was a bin on the floor that seemed to be "Things to go out" near the media. There was a lot of decent looking CDs in there, and I almost picked up more but opted for just one from the bin and one from…
