You can tell LotR is fictional because there's no way the small mass imbalance of a man and a hobbit leaning forward would have shifted the center of gravity of a massive stone column enough for it to change direction

I just started a newsletter on substack! I've been wanting to do a newsletter style thing for a while now, I've actually been doing them on bandcamp for a couple months but want to do something a little more personal and generalised. Subscribe here if you'd like! zirimusic.substack.com

icymi! recent arrival from the new plant ft @terzijdehorde.bsky.social @greetlds.bsky.social @vandus-ds.bsky.social @lammoth.bsky.social / @gonemage.bsky.social

absolute hidden gem of an album, so glad to have stumbled on this jorud.bandcamp.com/album/the-song

Welcome to a new series of posts titled Peeling Back the Leather where we will be interviewing folks from some small(ish) labels that are operating in the metal community. First up, the ever-resilient @fiadh.bsky.social! https://loom.ly/5Vs81tM

This Friday, Fiadh will release the second album from Lucerne Hammer, Vermilion Pyre, on cassette🔨 Created by our comrade @mossknightcometh.bsky.social in solidarity with workers everywhere, giving voice to the everyday frustrations, big & small, of those pushing back at the boot of our oppressors.

Sooo the first item I want to show you all is this Long Sleeves I made for Halizth, with what I intended to be the logo in front (but decided ultimately for something a bit less heavy). Fornt+back+sleeves on Gildan Long Sleeves. Available in several colors!! fynaven.com/product/hali...

The second one is one for my most recent sylfvr release, Inverted Castle, featuring the artwork on the front and the back with a variation of a frame (which is a freebie in one of my packs on ko-fi), and I absolutely love it in this color (others available ofc) fynaven.com/product/inve...

Me entering the weekend like Aragorn entering helms deep (except not nearly as sexy)

Trans Day of Remembrance. Hail the victorious dead. We will win.

I recently had an idea while in a delirious state of making an album about moles soooo yeah, I did it. And I think it turned out really nicely so that's good! The Ginormous Mole - Dig It! theginormousmole.bandcamp.com/album/dig-it

it was a cereal and fries for dinner kind of night

Biggest Tolkien pet peeve is when people say "Sam is the real hero" 💅

In other news I'm now unemployed so I intend to pour all my energy into arts. There's never been a better time to support what I do, commission art (serpenscodex.com or sylfvr.art/gallery), listen to my music (fynavenrecords.bandcamp.com) or check my free packs (ko-fi.com/sylfvr/shop) THANK YOU!!!

Released this ep a few weeks ago, three tracks of raw/atmospheric/epic black metal, kind of a throwback to the first album rather than continuing on the black/thrash direction of the next two. auriferousflame.bandcamp.com/album/the-duel

The music sage/local cryptid did a writeup of an event with @pretendeer.bsky.social @mossknightcometh.bsky.social @lammoth.bsky.social @mikemoth.bsky.social @travellersrest.bsky.social @thetreegardener.bsky.social Plus some nerd. Pretty great read gottasay... www.synthdigest.com/2025/11/14/v...

Happy Samhain! Really excited to share this new Hen Witch with you all! This release ended up a lot less campy and a lot more melancholic than i had intended, but i suppose that can't be helped in times like these. Please, tell a friend today that you love them. Link and codes below
