A friendly reminder that tomorrow is Bandcamp Friday! I've been adding stuff to my wishlist since the last one.

Here's a rat rocking out to some metal.

Huh. #John5 has joined Motley Crue. I guess maybe I like Motley Crue now? We’ll see.

Faith No More are best know for their intense, brooding style of funk metal. Becoming increasingly weird with each album after Mr. Bungle singer Mike Patton joined the band.

In 1992 FNM released Angel Dust, their second album with Patton on vocals. As a single, they mystified and delighted both fans and mainstream audiences with a cover of a 1997 hit by The Commodores, Easy;

I like technical death metal. The heavyness and the absurdly complex guitar parts. A friend introduced me to this band, INFERI:

Enter Sandman by Metallica was released in 1991. It wasn't on their first album, they'd already released 4 records in the 1980s. But the self-titled 'black album' was the first album to get mainstream attention, so it was the first a teenage Strypey had heard of them, and Sandman was the breakthrough single.

I say all this as context for a fact that hit me like a ton of bricks just now; Enter Sandman is 34 years old. But I still think of it as recent music. #FuckImOld!

Have just had that thing happen *again* where someone feels completely free in mocking the #metal I love to my face. Look: I don’t go around saying how embarrassing I find the XKCD strips people seem to think of as clever, or how smug and self-satisfied Terry Pratchett reads to me. I see that people get joy and validation from these things, and that’s sufficient, even if I myself privately think they’re cringe and awful. I just wish folks would extend the same courtesy to fans of heavy music.

OH SHIT Lacuna Coil are finally touring Australia again! They're playing Sydney at Liberty Hall in Moore Park on the 14th of next February.

EEEE excitement, they're one of my all-time favourite bands! #metal

#Listening to The Law Of Augmenting Returns. Released by Melbourne, Australian bass fiends The Omnific, in the Year of our Horde 2024;

https://theomnific.bandcamp.com/album/the-law-of-augmenting-returns

This is musicians' music, especially if you're a bass player. Atmospheric mathrock mayhem, loving it.

Manson called it back 2009;

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Xxv3zGEw4I&t=229

"And I don't want you and I don't need you
Don't bother to resist, or I'll beat you
It's not your fault that you're always wrong
The weak ones are there to justify the strong
The beautiful people, the beautiful people
It's all relative to the size of your steeple

...

Capitalism has made it this way
Old-fashioned fascism will take it away!"

It's still Friday somewhere ...

"Europe ain’t my rope to swing on
Can’t learn a thing from it
Yet we hang from it
Gotta get it, gotta get it together then
Like the motherfuckin’ weathermen
To expose and close the doors on those who try
To strangle and mangle the truth
‘Cause the circle of hatred continues unless we react
We gotta take the power back"

#RageAgainstTheMachine, 1992
