it took me a few goes to get into it. the muddy production hid the good shit going on under the surface. i think their debut did a better job of circumventing that

schlagenheim came out around the time i graduated from uni and entered the working adult world (albeit on the other side of the globe). i admired how sure it was of its eccentricities and wish i could’ve been that way. that was important during one of my hardest depressive phases. RIP matt.

hell yeah

is this krieg lol

non serviam either has to be sped up or needs more guitars.

rotting christ time

just, like, listen to metal if you want to get into it.

feels boring to talk about how good A Blaze in the Northern Sky is but it is perfect

YouTube video by Antifascist Black Metal Network Demon Sluice - Demo MMXXIV (Full demo, 2024) | Black metal, death metal

nobody on twitter is proudly giving Moby dick two stars

i challenge anyone to name a single website worse than Goodreads

My AOTY video celebrating my 5 favorite albums of 2025 #Metalsky

very impressive

idk about lull in video games. feels like mid-2000s is when devs ironed out many of the genre bugs of 3D gaming. plus, cave story came out in 04

i nearly gave up going to the gym cause i was so miserable

I Worked Out to Meshuggah for 90 Days and Here's What Happened Driven by a singular madness, writer Colin Dempsey talked to other metal/meat-heads and tried a workout regime entirely driven by Meshuggah. Is Meshuggah the solution to your workout woes?

sharing this again to celebrate the anniversary of me having the dumbest idea for a piece and going through 3 months of hell for it
