1981's 'Heavy Metal' is still an incredibly entertaining if hilariously juvenile bit of old school animation.

Man, Equilibrium used to be such a good band. ‘Sagas’ is an undefeated folk metal classic. Now look at what they’ve become. Their new album is so bad. It’s like a pseudo-Viking influencer’s motivational speech got turned into an album.

Finished reading this yesterday. A fantastic, if also extremely depressing, read. Meticulously researched but written in such a way as to be easily digestible. 10/10

Demofest 2025 submission has been submitted. José (Insade / 2 Pwels / Zero State) and I made a two song sludgy grunge demo. A bit out of our typical wheelhouses but we’re both big Alice in Chains fans so we did our best in the limited time we had to make something at least halfway inspired by them.

I always had a hard time getting into The Midnight because their sound was just ever so slightly too poppy for me but I’m really fucking with their new record.

Melodic death metal can often be hit or miss for me but when it hits it hits like the entire life force of a planet has filled my soul.

‘Bugonia’ was a delightfully disturbing black comedy that went places I didn’t expect.

I can’t express how unreasonably angry it makes me when people try to cut in line for the bus in the morning. We’re all tired and pissed off because we’re going to work at the ass crack of dawn. Why do you have to make this situation worse by pissing everyone off.
