This is the kinda New Noize set I love to do, mainly because there were a ton of full length releases that need your attention. Like Esben the Witch? Check out the new album by Black Belt Eagle Scout "The Land, The Water, The Sky'' Feeling kinda trashy, give the new Hammerhedd record "Nonetheless" a listen. If cover songs of the Country or should I say Cuntry is your thing Sub Pop got you covered with Bria latest EP "Cunrty Covers Vol. 2". Do you like anime the way I like anime? Then check out Miss Grit's "Follow the Cyborg". Aggressiveness you style? "SHOOK" the new LP by Algiers is your jam. Want something just plain old fantastic, fun and free? US Girls' "Bless This Mess" will make you cry in all the right ways. This week's New Noize Album of the Week belongs to shame. "Food for Worms" is a record that is on constant repeat, every song is dramatically different from the next and every listen has revealed something new. Sometimes it's beautiful, sometimes it's ugly but it's there and so are you so take it.

New Noize Song of the Week wasn't any easier to lock down. I rarely pick songs from album drops and I am not going to start now BUT if I did I would have selected US Girls' "Tux (Your Body Fills Me, Boo)". It is a song from the perspective of a hyper neglected Tux and yes it's even more amazing than it sounds. The New Noize Song of the Week belongs to SoCal's heartthrob Cuco with "Best Disaster". It's like silk and honey fused inside both your ear holes.

So I am taking suggestions on what video game I should play before May's madness. I finally finished Final Fantasy Crisis Core Reunion and I DID NOT CRY at the end. I don't know if I am going to platinum trophy the game BUT I do plan on beating Minerva at some point this week. I have yet to platinum trophy FFVII Remake and haven't even touched the interGRATE DLC as I want to replay all this before FFVII Rebirth drops this winter. I am a HUGE Metroid Prime fan but don't know if I can play remakes back to back. I have never played Dead Space. OctoPath Traveler II is also out. I was thinking about getting back into Destiny with Lightfall about to drop. HELP ME DECIDE.

I have been hitting that retro anime pretty hard. I have never watched Hajime no Ippo and it's SO GOOD. How did this fly under my radar? I also found out that Memories is streaming on Amazon (Magnetic Rose is AMAZING) along with Robot Carnival is streaming on Crunchyroll and with the recent cold snap it makes sense to stay in and rewatch these classics. If you have never seen either of these, let's call them films, you really REALLY should. Even if you are not a fan of anime this is something else.

BUT THE ONE I AM WAITING FOR IS FINALLY RELEASING THIS WEEK. ATTACK ON MOTHERFUCKING TITAN FINAL SEASON PART 3 EPISODE 1 IS OUT THIS SATURDAY. This 1st episode is actually 3 episodes long so an hour of AoT which I am excited about. What I am not excited about is how they are rolling this out, which is annoying AF and I am being nice about it. Apparently there will be 24 episodes in the final season (4th season) third and hopefully final part. The “Final Season” will be split into two sections of 12.

Episode 1: Saturday, March 4, 2023
Episode 2: Saturday, March 11, 2023
Episode 3: Saturday, March 18, 2023
Episode 4: Saturday, March 25, 2023
Episode 5: Saturday, April 1, 2023
Episode 6: Saturday, April 8, 2023
Episode 7: Saturday, April 15, 2023
Episode 8: Saturday, April 22, 2023
Episode 9: Saturday, April 29, 2023
Episode 10: Saturday, May 6, 2023
Episode 11: Saturday, May 13, 2023
Episode 12: Saturday, May 20, 2023

Good news is MAPPA claims that part four will continue in 2023. Let's hope they don’t pull some "final movie" nonsense at the end and give this Attack On Titan the proper finale it deserves. For now check out this trailer:
