oh cool it’s literally 90 degrees in my bedroom, this’ll be a fun night to attempt to sleep

it’s a weird thing to be nostalgic for but I miss when commercials were cheap and shittily made, I’m so sick of these awful CGI/AI sludge ads

#JustListened (again) I felt like listening to something that could pummel me into a meditative state... Okay, and I've not listened to @scoured.bsky.social's 30 minute epic as much as I would like, so this was a great opportunity! Highly, highly recommended!

I am listening to Converge.

tried making one of those top 25 charts for post-metal before realizing halfway through that I'm not actually sure what post-metal is

extremely funny to see that rateyourmusic apparently doesn't consider any Symphony X to be power metal except Iconoclast and Underworld

I am listening to one of the best prog-power albums ever made

oh hey, Ensnared in Cosmic Cycles has entered my top 5 most played songs on BC, that's nice

I always get a kick out of seeing people bail on Still early in my BC stats - you pressed play on a 30 minute song, did you expect instant gratification?

Fallen Moon Servant is going for a new pricing model. Check our page for details but TL:DR -> ...With a Stone in my Maw is $1 during pre-order!!!! Get it now! Buy it! It will not be this cheap on release! fallenmoonservant.bandcamp.com/album/with-a...

really sucks how a bad day at work can suck all the joy from the rest of the day too

casual reminder that I released a deeply unpleasant blackened doom album in April that I think is quite good scoured.bandcamp.com/album/still

idk why Christopher Nolan is bothering to make a new version of The Odyssey when the best possible adaptation already exists

thinking about the Selkies sweeps again

first movie night of pride month. starting easy before getting into the real queer cinema shit next week

June's Contra Odium with @v3xxe-vt.bsky.social and I is out now here: www.mixcloud.com/ChaosUnderNo... with music from @allfatheruk.bsky.social @vatermord-sludge.bsky.social @scoured.bsky.social Helianthus (@lavrabeach.bsky.social) and @feminazgultheband.bsky.social #MetalSky #MetalRadio #BlackMetal

very funny to me that the only original member of Slipknot left is the guy who hits beer kegs

always feels bad to block a mutual but I have no patience for AI shit

starting the day off right centurymedia.bandcamp.com/album/natten...

might’ve accidentally started a new band, shit

everything I’ve heard from Fallen Moon Servant has ripped and this is no exception

Mortal Kombat 1995 knows what we want out of the second act of a martial arts movie - six fights in a row with no story happening between them

reminder that using AI to create images or music or anything is always bad and there are no exceptions

If you don't fw Linkin Park do you even like music?

the amount of times Guthrie Govan shows up and single-handedly elevates a song to a masterpiece with a guest solo is genuinely impressive

The albums I think I've listened to the most: Converge - Jane Doe Dream Theater - Scenes from a Memory Opeth - Blackwater Park Carly Rae Jepsen - E•MO•TION Agalloch - The Mantle

thinking about James LaBrie's melodeath album insideoutmusic.bandcamp.com/album/static...

there may someday come a time when I accept that people actually enjoy my music but I am not there yet

I love when someone I know hears Scoured for the first time and says "wait that's you???" as soon as the harshes come in

listening to a poppy post-grunge classic

once again laughing at how bad IMDb's top movies are after seeing that The Dark Knight Rises is #75 on their list

the number of video games improved by adding huge stories with long cutscenes is minuscule

honestly looking forward to when video games crash so they might try making good ones again

When the album is great so far and then the band adds mediocre cleans >>>>

I’ve been watching through Christopher Nolan’s movies before The Odyssey and it has not been a particularly fulfilling experience tbh

oh hey, Solaris was the 150th movie I watched this year, that's fun

what if, rather than paying attention to work, I watched Andrei Tarkovsky's 1972 sci-fi masterpiece Solaris

Pride reminder: an extra good time to support any LGBTQ+ musicians with money, especially if you consider yourself an ally* - this goes doubly for trans artists who are fighting for survival *and are not otherwise in the community because we already pass around the same $20

Rainbow capitalist pride means nothing The Pride Marsha P Johnson was *murdered* for means everything There are no queer cops. There are no queer politicians. There are no queer corporations. Maybe less merch with rainbows on them and more trans fucking rights Stay safe out there queers

All 32 movies I watched in May:

rewatched Inception for the first time in a decade and damn, Elliot Page is the only actor who bothered to try showing a single emotion in that thing, huh

The Empire Strikes Back A New Hope The Last Jedi Rogue One Return of the Jedi Solo The Phantom Menace The Force Awakens Revenge of the Sith Attack of the Clones Rise of Skywalker

the english language has genuinely fantastic second person singular pronouns that our society just decided not to use. thee and thou rule but we’d be considered pretentious to even consider using them in everyday language

Scoured as a project feels like its always throwing something new at me. Love the dark riffy death metal energy.

Scoured/Nirensimt! Both projects bring the heat. Fuckin’ awesome and eclectic extreme metal. Nirensimt with some mean, riffy, and atmospheric black metal. Scoured hitting me with some near deathgrind flavor in blackened death goodness. Nirensimt: scoured.bandcamp.com/track/nirens... #MetalSky

have you listened to the @nirensimt.bsky.social split yet? did you like it? did anything stand out to you? I'd love to hear more thoughts on it! scoured.bandcamp.com/album/ceasel...

the amount of gleeful transphobia in british media is constantly shocking

genuinely fascinating to see Revenge of the Sith getting positively reevaluated. I think I finally understand how the folks a few years older than me felt during the nu metal revival

Stargazers, it is unleashed! 21ish minutes of pummeling, atmosphere-choked metal from myself and @scoured.bsky.social and we're terribly proud of the results. Check it out here: ampwall.com/a/nirensimt/... nirensimt.bandcamp.com/album/ceasel...
