I write about new music. My taste ranges from Ariana Grande to Imperial Triumphant.

Sometimes the cover tells you everything you need to know. The probability of this being an enjoyable listen is pretty damn high! #metalsky

I think today’s modern metal bands like Sleep Token, Spiritbox and Architects owes a great debt to Paradise Lost, who were blending death metal with goth rock and synthpop back in the 90s.

There’s a new album by Castle Rat, the excellent fantasy doom metal band who really blew up since the release of their debut album last year. According to reviews it’s longer, more adventurous and has more shredding guitar solos. Can’t wait to listen to this one! #metalsky #doommetal #newmusicfriday

It needs to be said that by rebranding Charlie Kirk's views as moderate by both right wingers and liberal cowards resets the extremist views he held as normal and pushes the Overton window to the far right

Democrats are not radical. In most of the world they wouldn’t even be considered left wing. Also, violent left wing extremism is not a real thing. Hardly any political violence in the western world has been perpetrated by people on the left the past 30 years. Check the facts.

Just listened to DEFTONES’ ‘Private Music’ and FAETOOTH’s ‘Labyrinthine’ back-to-back, and they fit surprisingly well next to eachother. What I’m saying is Deftones fans need to check out this all-female doom metal band!

Today’s band t-shirt: OLIVIA RODRIGO
From the first notes of «Brutal», track 1 on Olivia’s debut album Sour, I was hooked. One of my absolute favorite artists. She brought loud guitars back into pop music after they’d been gone for years, and for that she’s a hero.

Today's band t-shirt: TOMB MOLD
The Canadian death metal band are among the best of the 2010s cohort of death metal bands, blending their death metal with jazz, psychedelia and dream pop. The lyric on the shirt is from the song "Flesh As Armor" from their phenomenal 2023 album THE ENDURING SPIRIT.
