Why do you feel the need to attempt to placate and impress your scene at the expense of your own enthusiasm? Why aren’t you making the art you want to make? If you aren’t personally stoked about your shit why would anybody else be? It starts with you. Do what makes you happy right fucking now.

I’m biased because it’s my day job, but shops like Monorail are brilliant examples of small operations offering passion instead of identikit, corporate bs Support every record shop that has even an ounce of Lauren’s passion in the writing for this beautiful record

Perhaps, one day, schoolkids will study this squalid little chapter in British terror-panic history. When they do, I hope these two headlines from today are printed side by side, with clear annotation of which individual faced more outrage and condemnation.

One thing that's striking about Ozzy Osborne's death is how difficult it is to imagine the music industry producing another figure like him. The barriers to working class people are so great, and there's a related attitude to culture that is neutered as a result.

I genuinely feel sorry for people who don’t “get” metal It’s like heaven on earth for your brain

ALL ABOARD HAHAHAHAHA
