Taken from Death Is Not The End's Bandcamp page:

Begging the Moon is a collection focused upon an early-to-mid 20th century style of Thai popular song, commonly named Phleng Thai sakon (meaning "song which is both Thai and universal"). With recordings taken from the end of WWII until the start of the 1960s, many of these tracks may also be referred to as Luk krung (meaning "child of the city") a more urbanised style of popular song that is in contrast to the Thai country music known as Luk thung ("child of the field").

Following the Thai cultural revolution of the 1930s and the following reign of west-leaning premier Plaek Phibunsongkhram, Thai culture began to adopt more and more western influences - with Thai traditional and classical music starting to incorporate western notation and particularly Jazz-orientated themes. Thai folk melodies were also adapted to create "ramwong" - a merging of popular western dance music styles such as the tango or rumba, spear-headed at the time by the pioneering Suntaraporn band.

In the years following the end of WWII, the Phleng Thai sakon began to gradually develop sub-genres such as phleng talad (market songs) or phleng chiwit (life songs) focused on rural topics, and sung with rural accents. A little while later this would lead to a formal demarcation in the music - with the polished and western ballad-orientated music known as Luk krung, and the more traditional/country style now dubbed Luk thung. The gap between the two would then widen, both musically and culturally, right up to the present day.

The recordings compiled here can broadly be categorised as being in the former Luk krung style, though some tracks may touch on rural subjects and motifs. However that is not to say they are overpowered by western musical influence - many of these tracks display potent aspects of traditional Thai music within their beguiling and romantic arrangements.

Works good. Too good. If you’re not a pro, you’ll mess it all up. The headliner is up in the beater. But YouTube lied about how easy it is to use this stuff. Very sticky!! Easy to use. Easy to wrinkle the headliner too and just wad it all up. But oh well. It’s a beater. Nuff said.

Just get the Permatex for a better "spray on", both cans I bought required way too much effort in shaking between spraying. I did shake the can well before use.

Best choice! Absolutely necessary for anything above basic stock bass.
Bonded to services well, completely removed panel reverberation in my tacoma. Also really made the doors so much quieter even when closing. Very happy with the result. Used only one set on my 01 tacoma 4 door. Installed inside doors on exterior skin panel, over interior door panel access holes (sealing the door to provide backpressure to door speakers (left drains open)), roof panel, and back wall of cab. Achieved about 70% coverage and am very happy. 2 8in SKAR SVR8 at 1oh on walmart power acustic 2500 (only rated to ~800rms at 2oh, forum showed testing at 1oh worked about 1kw) in 6th order with blow through into cab. With cab gain, im over 130db between ~30 and ~50hz. This was a necessary addition!
