Hello my dear Uqt's and Gizz lovers.

My KGLW e-book now features their latest release - Alien Metal 👽

It includes lyrics of all their songs with cross-references and a searchable index. I started this project about a year ago because I wanted to have Gizz lyrics on my e-book reader, and I had lots of fun with it.

Downloads are available in EPUB and MOBI formats for e-book readers, and as PDF for other devices. Head to the GitHub page to get the latest files:

https://github.com/zykure/KGLW-TheBook/releases/

The e-book now includes all 28 albums and 2 EPs. I will extend in when new material is released in the future.

Hope y’all have fun with this!

Like it or not, I live by the book.

Following up on my e-book containing all Gizz lyrics - see my post here - I present to you:

What the Gizz?!

A browser-based game where you guess Gizz songs by looking at random lines of lyrics. The less guesses you need to figure out the song, the better!

Play it here:
https://io.zykure.de/what-the-gizz -or- https://zykure.github.io/what-the-gizz


For the nerds:

I wrote a Python script that extracts all lyrics lines from the LaTeX sources that I compiled for my e-book project. This creates a JSON file that stores all lyrics for each song, grouped by album (all_lyrics.json). This is then used for a little piece of JavaScript code that runs the game in the browser. It picks a random song containing at least 2 lines of lyrics, then presents random lines to the user who has to guess the song. The script removes duplicate lines and shows each line only once. If the user takes more guesses than there's lines available in the pool, it's game over!

If you're curious, check out the source code: GitHub

Is that the sound of your printer trying to process this document? :D

I compiled an e-book with all Gizz lyrics, so that I can use my e-book reader to sing along to my fav Gizz songs and have some fun with it.

Downloads are available in EPUB and MOBI formats for e-book readers, and PDF for other devices. Head to the GitHub page to get the files: https://github.com/zykure/KGLW-TheBook/releases/

The e-book includes all 27 albums and 2 EPs. I will extend in when new material is released in the future.

Hope y'all have fun with this!

There's probably some errors in there although I tried my best to fix them all, so please comment here or use the GitHub issues page to report anything you find.

Me too! It was a great show and the atmosphere was superb at Red Rocks, really cool place for live shows. My favorites probably were tye Polygon suite on day 1 and MOTU on day 2.

The only downside was that you had to sit/stand in rows with no infield, but on the other hand that made it easier for me to focus more on the music than on folks around me.

I made a post 2 days ago that even contained links to lemmy.ml and join-lemmy.org and it wasn't removed ... yet.

Maybe also depends on community (are mods removing it manually?) or other account-specific factors (more chance of removal if your account is already "suspicious"?)

Glad to have you on board!

Haha nice. I hope you'll post some tier lists soon, and don't forget to ask if Gizz is a jam band!

I just made this post on Reddit to motivate some people to come here.

Hopefully this community sees some more activity in the near future!
