Chapter 1: What is the main topic of the album 'You Have Not Been a Good User'?
You Have Not Been a Good User, Less Wrong Second Album. By Habrika. Published on April 1, 2026. TLDR. The Fuming Shoggoths are releasing their second album You Have Not Been a Good User.
Available on Spotify, YouTube Music and, hopefully within a few days, Apple Music. We are also releasing a remastered version of the first album, available similarly on Spotify and YouTube Music. There's an interactive widget here in the post. It took us quite a while but the Fu Ming Shoggatha's second album is finally complete.
We had finished 9 out of the 13 songs on this album around a year ago, but I wasn't quite satisfied with where the whole album was at for me to release it on Spotify and other streaming platforms.
This album was written with the very ambitious aim of making songs that in addition to being about things I care about and making fun of things that I care about are actually decently good on their own, just as songs.
And while I don't think I've managed to make music that can compete with my favourite artists, I do think I have succeeded at making music that is at the very Pareto frontier of being good music and being about things I care about.

Chapter 2: How does this album differ from the first album by the Fooming Shoggoths?
This means the songs on this album are very different from the first album. the first album was centrally oriented around setting existing writing to song. This album is, basically, all freshly written lyrics with no obvious source material.
Every song on the album was written by me, except You Have Not Been a Good User which was written by at Raymond and The Dance of the Doomsday Clock which was written by at Ben Pace. I hope you like it!
