Von Hausswolff haunts, surges with spirits taking on weight of world on rousing ‘ICONOCLASTS’ Photo by Philip Svensson We’ve all had that feeling that we’ve taken on so much, whether voluntarily or against our will, that we can’t take another step based on that w…

Anna Von Hausswolff, "ICONOCLASTS" @year0001.bsky.social

Game 1 of the World Series.

Glorious Depravity’s brutality sickens, stuns while grinding in horrors on ‘Death Never Sleeps’ If you want death, you got it. Let’s not mince words today. We like to have a relevant opening, but sometimes just getting into it is the way to go. I’m not really doing that, am I? Any…

He's on Grindr too much to keep up with news. What a fucking useless bag of flesh.

It's beers again, as @pierogibeast.bsky.social and I drink before the Steelers shit the goddamn bed again. That and we talk about that guy again.

Moisturize. Laugh at your pathetic team. Go to art supply stores. Drink one of your favorite beers that isn't widely available anymore. Don't give trolls oxygen. Thank the dude from Black Tusk for giving you great pointers on tying bandanas. Enjoy Halloween. Genuflect before Halloween 3. 🎃

Actually, the Pirates are the closest, but that fuck won't spend any money, even though they have a pitching staff that can win a playoff series NOW if they had like 4 competent bats.

The Pens are not that far off. They're playing young guys, and they have $ to spend this offseason finally.

Can't wait for the Tomlin extension in the offseason. I'll throw a brick when that happens.

The tan pants are not great. I know it's based on the original uniform, but go black pants. Feel like they're wearing khakis.

Get a beer. Hail to Pitt. FOR NOW.

PICK OF THE WEEK: Primitive Man’s acidic noise, smothering sludge pace mauling beast ‘Observance’ Photo by Vanessa Valade A lot of us wake up every day and dread what’s about to unfurl. It’s been tough to find a reason to muster the strength we must in order to handle the bullshit shoved down o…

PICK OF THE WEEK: @primitiveman.bsky.social "Observance" @relapserecords.bsky.social

This reminded me to watch this! It's been on my list and I need to get to it.

Bizarre Thaumaturgy warp edge of death metal with strangling madness on ‘Pestilential Hymns’ Putting on a record that instantly terrifies you is an experience. You hear something you don’t fully expect, and at first, you don’t know if you want to continue because it feels like it’s going t…

Thaumaturgy, "Pestilential Hymns" (Memento Mori)

Of COURSE at this NFL press conference there is a reporter asking a whiny question about trans people playing flag fucking football. It's flag football.

Barren Path bombard grindcore with swagger and intensity that devastate planets on ‘Grieving’ There’s enough violence surrounding us in society right now, and I’ve gone on about it a lot, so let’s put that thing to the side for like 15 minutes. That’ll make sense in a second. Instead, let’s…

Swiss thrash masters Coroner blister back after 30 years with relentless ‘Dissonance Theory’ Photo by by Manuel Schütz Thrash metal is an entirely different entity than it was in its heyday more than 30 years ago. In fact, other than the bands that were making the sound what it was at tha…

@pierogibeast.bsky.social and I have beers all over again. I also am at outright and total war with YT's preview generator.

Moisturize. Say happy birthday to @pierogibeast.bsky.social Don't accept this era as normalcy. Get your nails painted. Listen to Coroner. Buy records. And pizzas. And Halloween decorations. Don't carry expectations put on you by others. Nap during a storm. Adore your animals. Never lose your joy.

George Soros : wait there were how many protestors?

Aide : over 7 million sir

George Soros : i am never gonna financially recover from this

PICK OF THE WEEK: Graveripper add icy frigid power to violent fury on ‘From Welkin to Tundra’ A friend of mine, who is a little younger than I am, once told me he only could listen to thrash if it was blackened. Which always makes me think we’re talking about salmon or something. I feel lik…

PICK OF THE WEEK: Graveripper, "From Welkin to Tundra" (Wise Blood)

It's against 103-year-old Mike Tomlin in his 69th year as Steelers head coach. Flacco gains 3 yards.

Steelers defense fucking sucks, and they make immobile old dudes look like Joe fucking Montana in his prime. Let's just keep rolling out the same shit every year.

Suffocate

The new Coroner fucking rips. Rips. I say this despite the use of the word peek-a-boo in the lyrics of one song. IT RIPS.

Mastiff’s incendiary hardcore, sludge blend revels in misery, on EP ‘For All the Dead Dreams’ Pretty sure I’ve said this before, perhaps many times, but I cannot understand people who only can indulge in happy music or things devoid of any negativity. I can’t handle when I meet people like …

@mastiffhchc.bsky.social "For All the Dead Dreams" (Church Road)

Is Happy Mike his Grindr name?

An absolutely cooked family member who lost a job over spreading false medical info popped up in my FB feed. Fucking kids are involved too. The brain rot is just amazing to see. And again would be hilarious if kids weren't involved, one incredibly vulnerable to illnesses. Just soaked in bullshit.

Psychonaut spill added cosmic textures into post-metal dream on emotion-filled ‘World Maker’ We talk about a lot of negative things on this site, and we’ve made it redundantly clear as to why that’s the case. But there can be positivity or at least a silver lining sometimes, because withou…

Aduanten add more histrionics, swerves into death metal with gripping EP ‘Grace of Departure’ Encountering something that feels like it is mirroring similar feelings you’ve had inside, things you thought were unique to you, is quite the experience. Everything that shakes you inside or chall…
