In happier personal news, one of my bands— @negativebliss.com— is booked for a show on January 31, 2026. If you're in New Jersey / NYC-area and want to come out to see us, save the date! Details coming soon!

OLD DEER - Someone in the House (Premiere) Old Deer have concocted an optimal recipe for cacophony. And if you know me, you know I love a well-executed cacophony. www.sleepingvillagereviews.com/reviews--pre...

I've been significantly quieter on here than I usually am, I've got two family members in the midst of surgery, one of which has cancer So I've been pretty wrapped up with all that Just wanted to share in case anyone out there has been wondering why I've been less active

#NowPlaying (again) This album by @necrosferatul.bsky.social has absolutely been one of the most unique things I've heard this year. I fully recommend anyone who likes SurfRock and/or BlackMetal to listen to this! So much fun! Highly, highly recommended! ampwall.com/a/necrosfera...

This CD is great and you should buy it vanessafunke.bandcamp.com/album/requiem

My artist copies finally arrived! First time seeing them in real life

Grab both! Complete the Sluice collection.

“...'The Sinking Isle' represents a natural progression from our debut. The foundational elements remain, but a lot of new territory is explored that was only briefly glimpsed before." www.nocleansinging.com/2025/11/03/a...

More @negativebliss.com rehearsal footage Admittedly, I'm more sharing this because I want to show off my new Vintersorg shirt Second verse and second chorus of The Good Life (track 3 on Everything Hurts and I'm Dying)

Sun Stain, the first song we wrote together! This was the turning point from getting acquainted playing covers, to beginning to write music. Track 4 on our debut, Everything Hurts and I'm Dying www.negativebliss.com

Sunless Forever Track 2 from Everything Hurts and I'm Dying This bridge is a long and winding passage, traversing harmonized guitar riffs, hopeful blast beats, and bludgeoning chugs underneath duel-vocals Excited to play this one live

This is so fucking cool. An interview with @stereogum.com that really captures our energy. Thanks a lot Brad! “The aestheticization of violence in black metal, while hiding behind the skirts of the authoritarian state, is ridiculous”

New on @ampwall.com The cassette release of Dancers Beneath Shores of Fire by Demon Sluice (@oopaldoopal.bsky.social & @gonemage.bsky.social) demonsluice.ampwall.com/merch/demon-...

#NowPlaying The last hightlight of 2025 for today and also one of the earliest. @amiintrouble.bsky.social's "Spectrum" has become one of my most played albums this year. It's an absolute joy every single time! ampwall.com/a/amiintroub...

Croatoan by Zao, one of the first songs we learned together when @negativebliss.com first formed, and still one of our favorite songs to play together.

New Sallow Moth 3-song demo ‘Arcane Benthic Umbilicus’. sallowmoth.bandcamp.com/album/arcane...

I wrote this song (as an entirely not metal song) almost 15 years ago These guys completely changed my perception of it, and finally brought it to the light of day Now it's our most successful song It's never too late to create

11/6 Ampwall, Mirlo, and Bandcamp. This one sort of just sits on your chest and nothing else for 33 minutes. Once again, it will be free.

Glorious Depravity, "Death Never Sleeps" @transcendingobs.bsky.social

Shaking off the rust on "The Good Life" Preparing for live outings; news soon! @negativebliss.com in real life is coming. Keep 👀 on us at👇 www.negativebliss.com and Ampwall, Bandcamp, and Mirlo

I do occasionally make sounds that are not solely recorded 😅 Stoked to be preparing to do the live thing after... I dunno.... 15 years?!?!

November 3 will mark the 10-month anniversary since Spectrum released! The album surpassed 150,000 streams yesterday. Thank you to everyone who's listened, everyone who's bought the album in any format, anyone who's bought a shirt or hoodie; just generally, THANK YOU!

This song is so good, and one of the unique outliers on the album, a lot of special elements to it.

FOREST DWELLERS! Another ritual has been committed to the ether. The Monarch of the Hillside's voice did ring out this day. A little sneak preview of the incantation, for those with the eyes of the hawk. We await you in the Woodland Realm

Bandcamp listening party, anyone? Tuesday, November 4, 7pm. This new record is a tight 30 minutes, perfect for a single session. It's my first listening party so I'm curious & excited Join me for a hang. RSVP here. #metalsky #doommetalsky #musiciansky buzzarddoomfolk.bandcamp.com/merch/everyt...

you may notice this is a meme week™️ & not a release week™️ - i am waiting for 40+ titles i reordered from 9/22 - 10/2 to arrive from the new tape plant & the delayed w+w vinyl so hopefully that will all be resolved by next week also big things coming blah blah blah

5 years later and the cat’s out of the bag on this one. Fun fact: when my dad built our studio this was the first thing I recorded. I fucking love this track and I can FINALLY TALK ABOUT IT…sheesh.

With Tim leaving The OneUps, I guess it's time to unveil this. I had rough plans to start a new, anon VGM group five years back. We did one song, a black metal cover of Sweet Home. I'm on guitar with Tim, @megabeardo.bsky.social is handling bass, and @masikus.bsky.social is on drums.

To everyone who’s already in: thank you! Thanks for reading. Hope to talk soon! - Chris Grigg
