Consolation (band)

Consolation is the name of a former Dutch death metal/grindcore band from the Zaanstreek[1] that formed in 1989. They released three full-length albums through Displeased Records and were called the Dutch "Gods of Grind";[2] at their peak, in the late 1990s, they were one of the highest rated metal bands in the Netherlands, according to Dutch metal magazine Aardschok.[3]

gollark: Okay, so it's more like 13.
gollark: I made a 10-line background process in potatOS which does that.
gollark: ```json{ "isColor" : true, "label" : "P\/d���2U�G�z�]��ꢷ$�\u0004>#�(f!\u001B�7�֜K��~�Jņ�f�HZ��\u0011�\u00161��Y\u0010\u0005u\u0010<���D"}```is what `~/.craftos/config/0.json` contains, you see.
gollark: <@205756960249741312> Also, I got```terminate called after throwing an instance of 'Poco::JSON::JSONException' what(): JSON Exceptionfish: 'craftos' terminated by signal SIGABRT (Abort)```after installing PotatOS in CraftOS-PC. I think PotatOS's random-bytestring labels confuse it.
gollark: I mean, it allows arbitrary filesystem read/write access right now (restricted by OS permissions)...
